Page 8: Selection Of Operating Mode
If your vehicle has smart (variable voltage) alternator installed, the Ignition Override cable must be connected to the vehicle’s ignition. The IDC25L will only operate when the vehicle’s ignition is turned on. However, if solar panels are connected to IDC25L, the IDC25L will operate and only draw power from solar panels (assuming vehicle’s ignition is turned off). - Page 9 TYPICAL WIRING INSTALLATION 1.
