I’d make sure that:
ether1-poe-in-long-cable is set to yes/on as I’ve seen oddities with 750P deployed in such a fashion.

It's a Powerbox. Ethernet Poe comes from Tycon. The fat 110 psu would go into the DC barrel if there's 110 available.

If it's an older PowerBox that might be a problem, the rest of this assume it's a pretty new unit. Are you using the front (POE JR45) or rear (terminal) voltage output on the Tycon? The rear output should have a higher amperage capacity, so you could try that if you're using the RJ45 currently. Also keep in mind that the load output on the front/back is an OR value, not an AND value. You can have 1.5A on the back OR 1A on the front, but not both. If you've got both running, and are exceeding 1.5A, the unit is being overloaded (I killed a few Tycon controllers this way). It sounds like your boot up spike load for all three devices is probably more than 1A, but I don't know that it's more than 1.5A. I would advise measuring it to be sure. You may be able to move from the front to the back to get another 0.5A, which might give enough breathing room to fix the problem; since it's the startup spike load seems to be what's causing the issue. Another possibility might be to replace the charge controller with a device capable of more output. I suspect the Tycon is your problem (not enough output current for the startup spike). I have several RB750UP (newer units) and RB960UP units in the field on MeanWell AD-55B controllers, and they power up 3-5 units of various configurations of RocketM2/ePMP from a dead stop, but they put out about 2.4A @ 24v (note that the AD-55B doesn't include solar capabilities).

It's a 24vdc supply to a Powerbox which is POE to a BH and AP (Epmp and Nano). Over night of course it loses power these weeks with the lack of sun. We get there in the morning and with all three things plugged in it won't boot right. It looks like the Powerbox comes up but the red light for POE keeps blinking to the BH and AP. We can unplug these two, then plug in the BH, and then the AP to solve this problem. Is there a way to do this without writing a script on RouterOS? I'm thinking of shutting power off on bootup, then after 60s port 3 on, 60s port 4 on.
