The Manager15 Wiring Connections

REDARC recommends that this unit be installed by a suitably qualified person.
The AC power connection must be connected to an earthed socket outlet. Do not use
The Manager15 AC input if the cord is damaged. Use of a non-genuine or damaged AC
input cord may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. (If the supply
cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the
manufacturer or service agent).
Always wire the Output Connector before connecting it to the Main Unit. During
connection of the unit, the Battery Output (positive) must be connected first, followed by
the Ground (chassis) terminal. The chassis connection should be made away from the
battery and fuel lines. DC Input (positive) should be connected last. Once all connections
are wired to the Output Connector, plug the connector into the Main Unit.
When disconnecting remove the Output Connector from the Main Unit first. The DC Input
should be disconnected next, followed by the Ground (chassis) connection, then the
Battery Output connection.

2.4.1 Load Disconnect Feature

The Load Disconnect wire is a ground switch to activate a relay for disconnection
of any loads running from the house battery. The relay must be 12V with a
maximum coil current of 1A and resistor or diode suppression is recommended.
The Load Disconnect feature must be activated in the User Menu as explained in
section 3.3 of this manual.

2.4.2 Ignition Trigger Feature

The Ignition Trigger wire is used to turn the DC charging source on with ignition.
In most circumstances this wire does not need to be connected. This feature is
designed to allow vehicle with Variable Voltage alternators to trigger the DC Input.
Figure 2.4.2 shows how to wire the Ignition Trigger wire, the wire should be at
least 0.5mm² and the fuse must be installed as close as possible to the ignition
connection on the vehicle.
The Ignition Trigger feature must be activated in the User Menu as explained in
section 3.3 of this manual.
