PWM input voltage, Xantrex C40 test video
here is the Video link, the fluke is plugged directly into the Solar panel drop wiring before it enters the controller right above the panel input protection fuse, that i use for a disconnect just c...

parked in the shade, 3100w inverter generator running, for A/C
wfco output is reading 4,8 amps
inverter use is reading 9.8 amps
solar reading
above fuse 16.30v
below fuse 16.28v
controller output 14.06v 8.56amps
voltage at batteries 13.64v
panels are a voltage source, you can not have amps to a load with a voltage difference to push it
and if there were not a voltage present, there would be no worry about controlling voltage, (but this business about PV being constant current vs voltage has been hashed out in other threads)
