Charger Disabled when no house battery is connected?

I am just wondering if I have to put my Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC 12v/12-18 in Charger Disabled mode when no house battery is connected or can i just leavening on as normal?


I could not find anything under

8.3.2. Charger Mode - Battery Settings • Charger enabled


And if I switch the Charger Enabled off is say this mode should only be used for mentainence

In charger mode, it's a charger. It needs battery voltage to determine what to do.


If you want to have the charger provide 12V in the absence of a battery, switch to power supply mode.
