MUST READ
For the vast majority of users (90%+) reading this paragraph should
be sufficient for installation. The unit can be installed by simply
installing it between an input and output battery as depicted. The
unit, by default, shall start charging when the input voltage exceeds
13.6V and switch off when the voltage drops below 13.3V for more
than 120s (adjustable). Going above 13.6V for 5 seconds shall reset
this timer . The default charging profile is 14.4V abs. and 13.6V float -
for sealed lead acid batteries. (x2 for 24V | x3 for 36V | x4 for 48V). this
means that the vast amount off installations can be fitted out off the box
without any adjustments.
If charging is required when your vehicle is stationary you may require
lower than 13.6V input in order to activate. Please read about the
Stationary vehicle engagement mode later in the manual.
