 4 x red heat shrink lengths

 2 x black heat shrink lengths

 6m of 16mm2 red battery cable

 0.5m of 16mm2 black battery cable

 2 x terminal wing nuts

 4 cable ties

 Inline Fuse holder

 3A Fuse

 100A Voltage Control Relay

Pre - Installation

1. Disconnect both batteries by removing both the positive and negative terminals

before commencing installation.

2. Ensure the Auxiliary Battery is mounted securely to prevent movement in any direction.

VCR Installation

1. The VCR is to be mounted on a flat dry surface. The VCR must be kept well away from hot

items, such as exhaust systems or turbo chargers.

2. Check the inline fuse holder has a chassis connection point that can be reached from the

VCR installation location.

Cable Connection

Prior to attaching cables:

 Determine the cable lengths required.

 Strip the plastic insulation off the end of the cable for approximately 15mm, fit the

appropriate connector and crimp in place.

 Slide the heat shrink over the connectors and heat with a heat gun until secure.

 Ensure cables are securely installed using cable ties and are away from moving parts.

 Ensure cable insulation is protected against rub points which could cause short circuits.

 Install correctly rated fuse to protect the battery positive cables.

 Check the chassis connection points are electrically connected to the start battery negative

terminals.

Refer to the installation diagram when installing cables.

1. Attach 16mm2 red cable from Auxiliary battery positive terminal to the VCR M6 stud

labelled 87.

2. Attach 16mm2 red cable from Starter battery positive terminal to the VCR M6 stud labelled

30.

3. Attach Inline Fuse holder with 3A fuse installed from VCR terminal labelled minus ‘86’ to

the closest chassis connection (usually the mounting point of the VCR on a clean paint free

metal surface).

4. Attach 16mm2 black cable from Auxiliary negative terminal to the closest chassis

connection usually the chassis of the motor vehicle, engine block or alternator, or where

possible to the negative battery terminal.

5. Ensure all terminals are correctly fastened.

Options

If you want to use the emergency Parallel feature or winch bypass, you can make a switched

connection from the terminal marked ‘85’, to the positive terminal on the auxiliary battery.

Testing

1. Start your engine.

2. Set your multimeter to DC volts.

3. Place the red multimeter probe on the VCR M6 terminal labelled ‘30’. Then place the black

multimeter probe on the VCR terminal labelled “86’.

4. The voltage should quickly reach 13 volts (26v for the 24v system); this may vary in time

depending on the type of vehicle. Once the voltage reaches 13.2 volts (26.4v) you will hear

an audible click, this means the relay has switched to allow current through to the Auxiliary

Battery. This can be tested by touching the red multimeter probe on the M6 terminal

labelled ’87’. When the VCR is closed, voltage on both ‘30’ and ‘87’ will be the same.
