more than 2 minutes. The Low voltage
sensor is mounted in a sealed, waterproof,
plastic enclosure. Typically it is hooked up
to the primary domestic battery bank for the
boat. This is because this is the battery(s)
that powers the bilge pumps and therefore is
the most important.
Powering the Unit
Unscrew the four screws holding the cover
on and open it up. Inside you will see the
low voltage sensor attached to a DCTXP2.
Place the batteries in the DCTXP2. Now you
must program the DCTXP2 to a zone
location of the Marine Magellan (see
DCTXP2,
“ Universal Transmitter Input ” )
Electrical Connection
With the wireless zone powered up and
programmed, you now must connect the
respective wires to the battery bank that you
wish to monitor (Diagram 18 and 19).
It is important that the battery bank that you
are monitoring is the same one that powers
your bilge pumps. This is the most vital
bank to monitor when away from your boat.
Select the voltage you are monitoring on the
Low voltage sensor by flipping the switch
between 12 or 24 (Diagram 18 and 19).
Once the proper battery voltage is
selected you are now ready to hook up the
wires. You can hook up directly to the
Ground and negative of the batteries or to a
primary bus feed off of it. See Diagram 18
and 19 for 12 VDC and 24 VDC diagrams
respectively. Once this is accomplished, a
green light will light up on the low voltage
detector in the case. Secure the case in an
unobtrusive location by screwing through the
base of the case. Place the cover back on.
