Operating Manual
5.
Using the Remote:
Connect it using CAT-3 or better Ethernet cable. The
remote comes with a 6-feet cable. Longer cables may also be used. The
remote has a magnet that may be stuck to the back of the plastic enclosure
to allow mounting directly to a metal surface.
6. The booster has an internal jumper to select the
minimum battery voltage. From the factory it is set
to 10.5V. This is the minimum voltage manufactures
specify for lead acid batteries. See Figure 2. If this
needs to be changed, remove the enclosure screws,
remove the fuse from input end and carefully lift up
the end on the input side and slide over the BNC connector to open the
case. Disconnect the fan wires attached to the top and bottom. Watch a
short video for specific instructions: www.westmountainradio.com/bbda
7.
Fuse:
The ATC type fuse on the input side of the booster is used to protect
the battery from excessive current. The booster includes a 40A fuse. The
fuse may be changed to a lower value if desired for protection of other
system components downstream. Be aware the output current will be less
while boosting. For example if the battery is 11V and the boost is set to
13.8V, then a 40A input is around 29A output.
OpeRaTION

2. Mode switch:
