R27 schematics in user manual problem

[stwendl]

I just browsed thru a copy of th r27 manual and looked at section covering the wiring of the batteries.

I fail to see circuitry paralleling the two house batteries. The right battery seems to be connected to the inverter/charger only with no provision to use the charger to charge the other batteries, while the second house battery is connected to the alternator and then connected via an acr to the starter and from starter battery to the thruster battery via an acr again. There is a switch to allow bypassing the acr between that house battery and the engine battery.

I am sure this is an oversight in the documentation. Will have to check this on my boat when I pick it up next week.

Hello Steve,

The house batteries are connected in parallel. We will go over all of this on Wednesday, don't you worry 😀

I knew that. Just didn't properly phrase it. Meant to say "need the check out the manual on my boat". I realize the online manual was from 2010 I think and I would imagine it has been updated since 🙂. See you on Wednesday, I am already in the neighborhood
