Printed as "The transmitter generates a signal which is inductively coupled into the string PV+ line. The signal consists of an encoded 484.84 kHz tone." The receiver connects the string when it detects a valid signal and shuts off 5 seconds after the signal goes away (page 1); page 7 says the receiver opens the circuit within a few seconds of the signal being interrupted.

    MidNite Solar's own ten-page Little SOB (Shut Off Box) Installation and Use Guide, linked on MidNite's Instructional Documentation page as "10-349-1 REV N Little SOB Instructions"; every footer prints 10-349-1 REV N and no issue date is printed (PDF metadata March 11, 2021 and server last-modified March 12, 2021 are file provenance, not a printed date). Every page was read rendered. Page 1 prints in red "NOT COMPATIBLE WITH DC CHARGE CONTROLLERS!", a line the PDF text layer omits, while its System Function text mentions "the inverter or charge controller"; both are kept, unresolved. Pages 2 and 3 list the models MNLSOB-T1-600, MNLSOB-T1-AC, MNLSOB-R1-600 and MNLSOB-1000; pages 5, 7 and 9 print MNLSOB-R1-1000 for the 1000 volt receiver. The English wire range (page 2, "14-10 gauge AWM") and French wire range (page 3, "calibre 14-1/0") differ and are kept as printed. Page 5 prints the ratings and application notes; page 10 this edition's limited warranty (MNLSOB ten years), kept as dated history. The NEC 2014 and 2017 690.12 statements are dated maker claims, not certifications. Installation steps are the maker's, not recorded as facts. Obtained by Alternative Research from MidNite Solar's own site on 2026-10-30T12:34:47Z (HTTP 200) and copied unchanged into this archive. Manufacturer claims, not independent tests.
