ESP (Engine Start Protect) options
Timed Disconnect (Isolate)
When the “blue option” wire is “off” (Ignition off) and the battery is not being charged then a
timer starts (normally 90 minutes, depends on model). At the end of this timed period, the
ABP contactor is pulsed open. During the timed period, the “Engine Battery On/Off” switch
LED lamp will flash as stated in the table below:
Time Lamp on time Lamp off time

stage 1 sec 1 sec

nd
Stage 0.5 sec 0.5 sec
Final Stage 0.2 sec 0.2 sec
Should any of the following events occur during the timed period, then the timer will be
cancelled or re-started:
Taking the “blue option wire to a positive voltage (e.g. ignition on)
Pressing “Engine Battery” switch
Raising the battery voltage (e.g. charger connected)
See the flow chart Figure 5 on page 17 for the flash patterns during this function.
Note: the Low battery (ESP) protection will override this function.
