STEP 3: TRIM PROBE
Cut the probe to length. When fully inserted, the tip of the
probe should be approximately 1/4" above the plates or moss
shield. Insert the grommet into the hole and then insert the
probe through the hole in the grommet.
STEP 4: CONNECT RED AND BLACK WIRES
There are two options for connecting the red and black wires.
Using Threaded Inserts (Recommended):
Assemble the insert and the screw onto the ring terminals.
Count 4 cells from the probe in the current flow
direction of the main negative post, including the
cell the probe is installed in. On the NEGATIVE side of the fourth cell post, drill a 7/32"
hole 3/8" deep. Insert and hammer the screw assembly with the BLACK wire into
the drilled hole and tighten the screw. On the POSITIVE side of the probe so that
the VMS is seeing 8 volts nominal, drill a 7/32" hole 3/8" deep in the post. Insert and
hammer the screw assembly with the RED wire into the drilled hole and tighten the
screw. After the screws are installed, apply the dielectric grease to the connections
to prevent corrosion.
Using Self-Tapping Screws:
Count 4 cells from the probe in the current flow direction of the main negative post, including
the cell the probe is installed in. On the NEGATIVE side of the fourth cell post connect the BLACK
wire with a self-tapping screw. On the POSITIVE side of the probe so that the VMS is seeing 8
volts nominal, connect the RED wire to the post with a self-tapping screw. After the screws are
inserted, apply the dielectric grease to the connections to prevent corrosion.
Note: If the light is blinking purple, the VMS is not wired to the correct number of cells. Review
installation.
STEP 5: SECURE HOUSING
Secure the sensor light housing using cable ties supplied. Make sure wires are secured so they
cannot be snagged or pulled.

LED COLOR CODES
Solid Yellow LED - Battery is in use or being charged
Blinking Green LED - Battery is charged but not cooled / Electrolyte level is OK
Blinking Red LED - Battery is charged but not cooled / Electrolyte level is LOW
Solid Green LED - Battery is charged and cooled for at least four (4) hours / Electrolyte level is OK
Solid Red LED - Battery is charged and cooled for at least four (4) hours / Electrolyte level is LOW
Blinking Purple LED - Not wired to the correct number of cells / Review installation

CYCLE COUNTER:

To find out the number of charge cycles, simply disconnect the (RED-POWER) wire for five (5)
SECONDS and then reconnect. The LED will start blinking showing various colors indicating the
number of charge cycles as follows:
Green: 1000s
Red: 100s
Yellow: 10s
Blue: 1's
Then OFF for three seconds
