MOUNTING FOOTPRINT
Disconnect the positive side of the battery before installation. Connect the positive
(red) and negative (black) terminal lugs to battery or load. Always use the proper
size wire based on the amperage of the converter and the battery. When connecting
to a battery, a breaker should be installed within 18″ of the battery, connecting the
battery positive to the line side of the breaker, and the DLS to the load side. Connect
“Chassis Bonding Lug” on the DLS to vehicle chassis or other grounding source.
Plug the DLS A.C. input cord into a 120 volt 3-wire grounded source. See chart
for maximum current draw and required input voltages. For complete installation
guidelines, refer to the installation manual.

DUAL VOLTAGE JACK
The DLS-54-13 is equipped with a Dual Voltage Jack and Dual
Voltage Plug that allows manual switching from a long-term
float voltage of 54.4vdc to 59vdc. When the Dual Voltage Plug
is inserted in the jack, the voltage increases to 59vdc for oc-
casional fast charging. When the plug is removed, the voltage
drops to 54.4vdc to reduce battery water loss.
The Dual Voltage Jack also allows for easy installation of an
external IQ4 Smart Charger* for automatic 3-stage charging
(optional). If the unit is equipped with an internal IQ4 smart
charger, two-step charging is not needed and the Dual Voltage
Jack is disabled. For details on 3-stage charging voltages, refer
to the IQ4 instruction manual.
