Section 6: Electrical System
Converter with Charge Wizard (if so equipped)
Some converters may be equipped with a charge wiz-
ard. There are (3) possible charging modes; NORMAL,
BOOST and STORAGE. The charge wizard will auto-
matically select the best mode to charge your battery. A
green LED next to the wizard mode button will indicate by
flashes, which mode is currently being used.
NORMAL MODE: Green LED flashes once per second;
battery is between 50% and 90% charged. Green LED will
flash 2-3 times per second; battery is 90% charged. Output
voltage is 13.6VDC and the converter is safely completing
the charge of the battery.
BOOST MODE:
Green LED is on solid. Output voltage is 14.4VDC to rapidly charge the
battery up to 90% of full charge.
STORAGE MODE : Green LED flashes every 6-8 seconds. Output voltage has been re
-
duced to 13.2VDC; the RV battery is fully charged and converter is maintaining the charge.
MANUAL MODE (Not recommended):
The wizard mode button is used to override the
charge wizard. Refer to the converter owner’s manual for additional information.
REVERSE BATTERY PROTECTION:
Reverse polarity fuse(s) provide protection for
the converter when a battery is used. If the battery is connected backwards to the fuse board
a fuse will blow preventing damage to the converter. Four easily accessible fuses are located
next to the wizard button. Replace with fuses of the same type and rating.
12-Volt DC System
The majority of your recreation vehicle lighting is powered by 12-volt electricity. The 12-
volt DC system is composed of components that will operate when the following conditions
are met:

Power is supplied by the tow vehicle alternator when the engine is running and the
7-way trailer plug is connected. This powers the RV’s running lights, brake lights,
turn signals and brakes. In addition, the 7-way trailer plug provides a common
ground and a 12-volt charge line to charge the auxiliary battery.

The converter will supply interior 12-volt DC power when the power cord is
plugged into campground power. The converter will also charge the RV battery in
most situations. (Refer to
Battery Disconnec
t)

The auxiliary battery powers many interior 12-volt components including the
lighting fixtures, water pump, 12-volt motors, 12-volt appliances, etc. It also pow
-
ers the breakaway switch.
12-Volt Fuse Panel
The 12-volt fuse panel is labeled to indicate fuse sizes, positions and the components pow-
ered. Fuses are located in the load center.
Replacement fuses must be of the same voltage, amperage rating and type.
Never use a higher rated replacement fuse; doing so may cause a fire by
overheating the RV wiring.
