DC INTERCONNECTIONS TO ATS
Two control wires are required between the ATS panel
and the generator control terminal box. Depending on the
distance, 14 and 16 gauge stranded wire should be used.
These wires should be labeled S1 and S23.
WARNING
Be sure engine generator is in the OFF position before
you make any DC interconnections.
ASCO 185 UL SWITCH
Your DC connection points in the ASCO 185 UL ATS are on
the terminal block on the bottom of the controller in the
lower left hand corner of the ATS panel. The terminal block
(TB7) is numbered 1 through 9. These terminals will accept
# 22 - # 14 AWG stranded wire. It is recommended that you
use # 16 AWG for distances up to 200 feet. You need to run
two (2) wires from the engine generator set to the transfer
switch. You will be using terminals 4 and 5, wire Start # 23
will connect to terminal # 5 and wire Battery Negative #
1 will connect to terminal # 4. See the following table and
illustration.
Your DC connection points in the ASCO 185 ATS are
terminals “4” and “5” on the interface terminal block. As this
is a “DRY” unpowered contract set it set, it makes difference
which lead (battery negative #1 or start #23) connect to
which terminal.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY
A customer supplied 12 Volt battery is required to complete
the installation. Installation of the highest CCA rated battery,
within the correct BCI group, will increase cold weather
starting performance.

Installation and servicing of batteries must only be
preformed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of
batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized
personnel away from batteries.
When installing or replacing batteries, use the proper
group/size starting battery. The battery should be a
maintenance-free lead acid design. Deep cycle batteries will
not work for this application.
These engine-generator sets are all NEGATIVE ground. Be
very careful not to connect the battery in reverse polarity,
as this may short circuit the battery charging system on the
engine.
CAUTION
In the following battery installation procedure, check
to be sure the engine control is in the “stop” position.
This should be your last step before initial start-up.
WARNING: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
This unit is12 Volt and is negative ground. Permanent
damage will occur if they are connected to a 24 Volt
system or a positive ground system. If you are using
the truck batteries to start these units, you may
have to disable the charging system to keep it from
interfering with the vehicle charging system.
CAUTION: PERSONAL DANGER
NEVER dispose a battery in a fire. The battery is
capable of exploding.
DO NOT open or mutilate the battery. Released
electrolyte is known to be harmful to the skin and
eyes and to be very toxic.
DANGER: EXPLOSIVE FIRE RISK
1. Never smoke when near batteries.
2. Do not cause a flame or spark in the
battery
area.
3. Always discharge static electricity from
your body before touching batteries by first
touching a ground metal surface.
CAUTION
A battery presents a risk of electrical shock and high
short circuit current. The following precautions must
be observed when working with batteries:
1. Remove watches, rings, and other metal
objects.
2. Use tools with insulated handles.
3. Check both the battery cable ends and the
battery posts to be sure they are free of
corrosion.
4. Always connect the battery positive cable
first and then connect the battery negative
cable. When removing the battery cables
from the battery, reverse the procedure,
disconnect the negative first and then the
positive
cable.
5. Be sure all connections are tight and coat
the terminals and cable ends with dialectic
grease.
