David,
The BattleBorn batteries have an internal control system which will actually stop the charging when full so I didn't connect the Victron to the charger. Likewise, your Battery Control Center and it's Battery Isolation Manager should keep the coach and house batteries doing their own thing and at the proper voltages. Mine is a Precision Circuits 00-10033-200.

Okay, I found the converter for the 4060 online and ordered. I saw your pic of install. Looks pretty straight forward. Thanks

Rich --- The Victron BMV 712 and the PD 9160L have arrived. The battle born batteries will be here on Wednesday. I have a couple of 1' battery cables for the shunt and I have read the manuals . The question I have is about interfacing the 712 with the pd9160L. The manual with the charger states that is does not have Charge Wizard or other control capability but allows for interface or a switch. Likewise the 712 manual describes its interface/relay control capability. The question is "do have have your 712 controlling your PD charger? Is it necessary? If so, where do you get the cable to connect the two or does the setup require a charger controller relay? Overall. wiring this up is certainly in my wheelhouse but I wasn't sure how the charger knows when to stop charging the batteries or if the batteries have internal charge regulators .
Thanks
David
