while i do have two panels i as planning on only using one of them and it sounds like that is all the MPPT can handle. and using a 12 v volt system. In reading the article posted it appear I might need a DC to DC convertor to lower voltage?
No. You certainly don’t want to clutter the system up with unnecessary items. You don’t need a DC Dc converter. A Solar charge controller IS essentially a DC DC converter. Do as most here have suggested and just get a decent MPPT solar controller than can handle the current on your panel! As already pointed out, the solar controller you already have can NOT handle the current from just one of your 350 Watt panels.
