Anyone know how to test a small glomex amplifier , 12 volt in .
I believe theres a certain mv or voltage out to omni directional aerial on top of boat .
Tv amp automatic gain dvbt/dvbt2
Sorry , forgot to mention this is a tv not working situation . It was working .
Tv is good , cable is good , how to test booster or whatever it’s called is my issue. If that good , then it’s on to another omni circle type aerial .
I notice the aerial reads 12 volt 150 ma
Anyone know how to test amplifier that powers the round aerial , aerial reads 12 volt 150ma
I have one IN and out 1 out 2
I assume in is from the aerial , l put a meter on it and reads 6 volt
intresting idea.
With 16 mm cables from battery bank one to bank two that’s an idea . Just fit fuses to protect the 16mm cable.
Then if battery bank two ever ran totally down and tried to draw excessive current fuse would blow .
Could also fit the vsr , by the way it’s only rated at 140...
Sorry l meant to say closes when it sees voltage .
No idea why auto engineer give me diode to stop current flowing back from battery 2 !!
I wonder what size of cable l would need from battery one to battery 2
Question
Does a vsr unit connect when it sees the higher charging voltage OR does it turn on when battery bank one is fully charged ?
Thanks for feedback
We are getting close to my concern. If battery bank 2 ran down for some reason would the constantly charged bank 1 have the vsr open and bank two draws full power for the thruster .
Note . Bank one will always be getting charged from either 240 volt when in dock or from boat engine
Keep in...
Thanks for reply , although confused .
Battery bank one is currently being charged by boat engine and 240 volt vitrion charger when boat at dock.
My question … how do l link fron battery bank one to new battery bank two.
Assuming l am right , l have bought vsr unit and intend to run 16 mm...
I have a new second battery bank for a thruster .
I plan to fit a voltage regulator which allows me to charge new battery bank only when main starter battery bank fully charged .
Question … what would stop my new thruster battery bank running down and the thruster pulling large current on my...
