Hey guys,
So I was playing with my battery switches last week and noticed with the parallel switch off whenever I shut off either battery it kills the radio. I was under the assumption that the house battery only drove the interior items. Is this normal or are my batteries wired in incorrectly?
 
I suspect that you do not have a jumper between the negatives of the two batteries.
 
Mine does the same thing. I just reboot the Connext system and it will stay in float mode when anchoring out or when I am putting the boat away for the day.
