Hi folks,
We just uploaded updated versions of both the VPX and PPS manuals to reflect a small change in wiring of the Vsense line from the B & C LR3C/D voltage regulator. The change came after a review with B & C Specialties over the last few weeks in which an inadvertent or accidental switch off of the PPS alternator reset switch, which would allow the VR to raise voltage to an unsafe level, which could damage the PPS. This was addressed in a previous manual update with a wiring and switch assignment change on the VPX, but this update eliminates the possibility of an accidental switch off of the alternator through the PPS preventing damage to the PPS by removing the Vsense connection to the VPX when using a PPS.
Please grab the latest version of both manuals, and if you have a PPS with VPX and an externally regulated alternator with the LR3C or D installed, please make the simple change in your wiring to ensure the possibility is removed.
Links to the manuals here, or they are available on the Documents page on the Vertical Power website.
