Assembly instructions:
1. Disconnect the starter battery from the on-board power supply
2. Discharge the Ghost:
In order to avoid damage or an unintentional discharging with dangerous heat development at the
Ghost, it must be discharged as follows before installing or removing:
• Connect the ring terminal of the charging cable to the plus pole of the Ghost using the Allen key.
• Connect the alligator clip securely to the minus pole of the Ghost.
• Leave for 5 minutes – the Ghost is not fully discharged until then.
• Caution the resistor may heat up excessively when discharging - risks of burns!
• Afterwards, loosen the alligator clip at the minus pole – leave the charging cable on the plus pole for the
time being.
3. Installing the Ghost:
Attach the discharged Ghost securely and tightly near the amplifier using the holders provided.
4. Initial charging of the Ghost:
The initial charging and charges after completely discharging the Ghost must be carried out using the
charging cable to prevent extremely high charging currents and to achieve a long service life of the Ghost.
Charging:
Connect the minus pole of the Ghost to the earth line. Connect the alligator clip to the fused plus supply line
(battery plus). Ensure that no other conductive parts are touched. Reconnect the starter battery.
The Ghost is now charged, whereas the resistor integrated into the charging cable limits the maximum
charging current and thus protects the Ghost. Caution! The resistor may heat up excessively when
charging - risks of burns! If available, a voltage meter can be connected to the Ghost to control the
charge reached. The charging cable limits the charge to 12 - 13.5 volt and lasts approximately 8 minutes.
Once the charging procedure is complete remove the fuse in the plus supply line for the Ghost.
Carefully loosen the alligator clip connection and remove the charging cable. Ensure proper insulation when
working, since the Ghost is now fully charged – danger of short circuit!
Carry out the remaining wiring to the amplifier.
5. Final check:
• Check that the components are wired correctly and that the polarity is correct.
• Check that the supply lines are routed correctly.
• Ensure that the screw connections are tight
6. Finished:
• Replace the fuse in the plus supply line.
• Ghost now takes over the buffering of the amplifier’s operating voltage.
Removing the Ghost:
Disconnect the starter battery from the on-board power supply.
Remove the cable connections from the Ghost
Discharge the Ghost as described in point 2.
Attention: Before you connect the starter battery again, you must ensure that the open connection lines
cannot cause short circuits! Insulate the lines accordingly or remove them!
