Installing the Link 1000

Installing Fuses

CAUTION

Install the fuses in the sequence listed below to prevent damage to the Link 1000.

To install fuses:

1.Install a 2 amp fuse in the fuse holder in the blue wire.

2.If you are using a starting battery, insert a 2 amp fuse in the fuse holder in the violet wire.

3.Install a 2 amp fuse in the fuse holder in the red wire. The fuse should be connected in a smooth motion. A “ragged” power up may cause the Link 1000 to lock up.

The BATTERY STATUS LEDs and the Numeric Display come on. The AC IN LED comes on if AC power is being supplied to the inverter.

Connecting the Phone Cable

CAUTION

Make sure you have made all DC power and shunt connections before connecting the phone cable to the inverter/charger.

•Plug the phone cable into the jack on the display panel and the jack on the inverter/charger, and then clip the display panel into the mounting plate.

Testing the Installation

After installing the Link 1000, test its operation.

To verify that the shunt leads are connected correctly:

1.Select Amps as the display unit by pressing SEL until the Amps LED comes on.

2.Make a note of the Amps reading.
