[JB] [JB11] Newmar Start Guard

[Jules - Raymarine - Moderator]

Hello hubesail,

To me it seems that you should be posing those questions to the manufacturer of the Start Guard as Raymarine don't support their products. A simpler method would be to connect electronic equipment that is prone to browning out (causing the processors to restart) to a dedicated and totally isolated "Instrument" battery. The engine start battery should be on a separate isolated circuit and connected to the charging circuit via a VSR (Voltage Sensitive Relay) that cuts in only when the battery voltage drops significantly and requires charging. Anything that draws massive current like a thruster or a windlass should be connected to either another battery or only operated when high current is being supplied from the engine or generator.

Hope this helps

Happy boating and kind regards
Jules
