Making
the
DC
connections
Two
alternative
methods
for
making
the
DC
connections
are:
I.
connecting
the
DC
positive
(+)
outputs
of
the
charger
to
the
battery
connections
on
your
battery
switches
or
2.
connecting
the
DC
positive
(+)
outputs
of
the
charger
to
the
output
posts
of
your
battery
isolator.
(Do
NOT
connect
the
charger’s
outputs
to
an
isolator’s
inputs.)
These
methods
are
only
recommended
if
your
281
SM
will
be
mounted
much closer
to
your
battery
switches
or
battery
isolator, than
it
will
be
to
your
batteries.
For
sample
diagrams
of
these
types
of
installations,
refer
to
Guest
document
1-21681.
This
is
included with
all
Guest
battery
switches
and
isolators,
and
is
available
on
request.
