A Cat 5-patch cord for a solar panel display, if supplied
with the after market unit, runs from the battery buss
bar to an area just below the CatCon seven display.
The solar panel display panel can be mounted just
below the CatCon monitor panel by routing the proper
size hole. The Cat 5 wire is plugged into the display
panel
NOTE
the yellow wire must be fused with a 10-amp inline
fuse at the 12-volt positive. All wires are identified
with labels at all locations.
The solar panel has a charge controller that should be
mounted close to the battery buss bars, as the battery
leads are hooked into it to sense the actual battery
