Orion -TR Smart 12/12-18 isolated

Hi


I have just fitted the above unit as a charger to charge a optima deep cycle battery for a bow thruster on a boat . It does not seem to be charging and also after reading some other posts it does not get hot or even warm. Any advise please on what I’m doing wrong. It’s connected as per the manual.

First guess is it's not properly configured.

What is the input to the Orion?

Please post your battery settings, start up/engine detection settings.

As you can see from the output that it’s only showing 10.5 volts . I have switched off the charger and tested the battery and that’s what it is showing 10.5 volts .

Hey, same problem over here! My Output won't go higher than 12,3V even though my settings are way higher… Can't figure anything out & would be sooo happy about some help.
