PD4600 Checking the Battery Connection
Using a DC Voltmeter the battery voltage should read on the posts in the
diagram below.
Understanding DC Power Systems
The 4600 converts the AC into 13.5 volts DC to Charge the Battery and supply
power to the lights and accesories.
The + DC supplies power through the fuses to lights and accesories.
The circuit is completed through The – return wires which must tie in to the
Battery, Converter , and the lights. The Frame of the RV is often the – side
return path.
Gel Jumper
To set the charger to work with Gel batteries, add a jumper to the pins on the
white jumper chair.
- This is a standard .100 spacing jumper available from us or computer stores.
- The Lithium Wizard jumper should be set to WIZ.
Lithium WIZ (Lead Acid)
Jumper
This is a 3 pin header. Jumped Center to LI = Lithium
Jumped Center to WIZ = Lead Acid
Operation
With the Jumper in the WIZ position the charger will operate as described in
the wizard description for Lead Acid Batteries.
With the Jumper in the LI position the charger will maintain a LiFePO4 Battery
with a requirement of 14.6 volts. When the battery is fully charged the
voltage will remain at the 14.6 level.
