The Normally open contact is connected to input B+ (Pin N°3), so if the ignition+ signal line is not active (engine off) the appliance will be powered by the leisure battery.

  • Page 18: Installation

    8. INSTALLATION POWERSERVICE can be installed easily and securely thanks to the external flanges (aluminum feet). The ideal mounting position is smooth, well ventilated and not subject to overheating; avoid surfaces covered with fabric or carpet. Install the device as close as possible to the leisure batteries.
  • Page 19 CAUTION POWERSERVICE GOLD version integrates a 230VAC battery charger, therefore: pre-existing chargers, external chargers, integrated in the control unit chargers, must be uninstalled! Set the power switch to 0. 2. Connect the negative pole of the starter battery to POWERSERVICE Pin N°1.
  • Page 20 To avoid interferences in audio / video systems: • Use high quality (and in good condition) cables for TV antennas and other transceivers. • make sure that the POWERSERVICE’S power cables (input and output) are far from transceivers cables, sensitive devices power cables and AC current cables.

  • Page 26: Checking The System'soperation

    10.CHECKING THE SYSTEM’S OPERATION After installation, it’s necessary to check the correct operation of the device. before to start you must discharge the leisure battery first (about 25% less then the full charge) by switching on some of the appliances connected to the system: lights and TV for example.
  • Page 27 SOLAR PANEL CHARGING CHECK (CAN ONLY BE DONE WHEN VEHICLE IS OUTSIDE AND DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS!) Turn off the vehicle engine. 2. If the solar panel is correctly installed and oriented to the sun, after a few seconds the LED RELEVANT to the solar PANEL INPUT will flash.

  • Page 28: Maintenance

    The switch on the device must always be left in the ON position (1), for normal operation. If the switch is set to OFF (0), the POWERSERVICE disabled only from the "Alternator" charge source, then it continues to operate from the solar panel and / or 230V mains (for the GOLD model), but it will not work while the engine is running.
