Note: Incorrect wiring will result in reverse polarity or high reverse voltage,
in the event this happens, the ProSport Charger has been designed to not
fail as a result, however it will cause the charger to "internally disconnect"
and provide "no output" until the (reverse polarity) caused by putting the "Red"
+ lead on a - negative battery terminal) and/or the (high reverse DC voltage
caused by taking one bank cable and spreading it across two batteries) is
corrected, using the wiring diagrams as shown on pages 10-18.

Note 1: One bank cable connects to no more than one battery
Note 2: ProSport is designed to be used with group 24, 27, 30 and 31 batteries
Installation Tip:
When connecting each jacketed battery charger cable, make sure it is
connected to only one 12 VDC battery and observe the polarity and color of all connections:
Red Wire =
+
(Positive) Battery connection
Yellow Wire =
-
(Negative) Battery connection; a black wire is also (-).
The yellow Wire can never be connected to a terminal with red wires. Only black.
Important: The Pair of Red and Yellow wires in one cable jacket MUST GO TO THE SAME 12VDC Battery.

Each charger cable
must
be connected to 1 battery,
just as shown. Observe

Simply choose the illustration that has the same number of charger output
bank cables as your ProSport Battery Charger in hand and wire exactly as shown
(choose the illustration that matches your application) for proper charger operation.
Step 1:
Incorrect wiring will result in reverse polarity or high reverse voltage, in the
event this happens, the ProSport Charger has been designed to not fail as a result, however
it will cause the charger to "internally disconnect" and provide "no output" until the (reverse
polarity) caused by putting the "Red" + lead on a - negitive battery terminal) and or the
(high reverse DC voltage caused by taking one bank cable and spreading it across two
batteries) is corrected, using the wiring diagrams as shown on pages 10-18.
Step 4:
Do not remove your batteries series or parallel jumper cables that interconnect
batteries to each other. ProSport Chargers are designed with isolated outputs and
Series or parallel jumper cables do not have to be removed.
Step 2:
Your ProSport charger will not operate properly if it is not connected properly
to each Battery. Reminder, The ProSport and each DC jacketed bank cable must be
properly connected to "individual 12V batteries". Number of DC jacketed bank cables
equals the number of batteries that must be individually connected. Example: a 3
bank ProSport 20 Plus must be connected to 3 individual 12V batteries. As Illustrated
on Pages 10-18. Select your battery / trolling motor configuration for the specific
wiring illustration need for your charger.
Step 3:
If your application is for 4D or 8D large capacity batteries, please
refer to ProMariner's website www.promariner.com and view our ProTech-i and
ProNautic C3 Line of Dry Compartment Chargers. Using our online selector guide
choose a model that best fits your application for this class of batteries.
