ECC-50DA Remote Amplifier Installation
3. Connect the red wire from the battery harness to the positive (+) side of battery #1.
1.1.9 Calculating Current Draw and Standby Battery
This section helps you determine the current draw and standby battery needs for your installation
(18 Ampere Hours max. will fit in cabinet). Complete the remaining instructions in Table 1.3.
For batteries larger than 18 AH, use the BB-26 or BB-55FBattery Box. A maximum of 33 Ampere
Hours is allowed per system.
