Owner's Manual Addendum
BP12V81
Battery Pack Connection
This addendum deals solely with the procedure to connect a BP12V81 Battery Pack to an Inverter/Charger. Follow all safety warnings and instructions
included separately with the Battery Pack and Inverter/Charger prior to attempting connection.
Step 1
Place the Battery Pack close enough to the Inverter/Charger so that the Battery
Pack's cables can reach.
Step 5
Restore AC power to the Inverter/Charger. The BP12V81 Battery Pack(s) and
Inverter/Charger are now connected and ready to be used for battery backup
applications.
Step 2
Step 6
Place the Inverter/Charger's operating mode switch in the "OFF" position. Make
sure the Inverter/Charger is unplugged from and/or not receiving power from any
AC source. Make sure the Inverter/Charger is disconnected from any DC power
source.

Step 3
Remove the half-inch of insulation on each
of the wire ends of the red battery connector
that is included separately with the
BP12V81 Battery Pack. Connect the red
battery connector's wire ends to the
Inverter/Charger's DC terminals. Connect
the RED wire to the Inverter/Charger's
POSITIVE (+) DC terminal. Connect the
BLACK wire to the Inverter/Charger's
NEGATIVE (-) DC terminal.
Set the Inverter/Charger's Configuration DIP Switches to the following positions.
Note: the diagram represents the RV750UL and similar Inverter/Chargers. Select
Inverter/Charger models do not include the B4, B3, B2 and B1 DIP Switches; in
these cases, simply make the A4, A3, A2 and A1 settings recommended below.

* No purchase necessary. Void where prohibited. Some restrictions apply. See website for details.
* Note: There are two cables located on the Battery
Pack: a long cable and a short cable. The long cable
is for connecting to the Inverter/Charger (or to an
additional Battery Pack in an optional daisy-chain
connection, see below). The short cable is only used
in an optional daisy-chain connection (see below);
otherwise, the short cable will remain unconnected.

For longer runtime, daisy-chain two or more BP12V81 Battery Packs together. Take
the daisy-chain cable, the shorter cable (A), of the Battery Pack closest to the
Inverter/Charger and connect it to the external battery connector cable, the longer
cable (B), of the Battery Pack you want to add. Repeat the procedure for each
additional Battery Pack you connect.
