Steps:
1- Connect red clamp (3) to b+ terminal of alternator or to the + terminal of battery
2- Connect black clamp (4) to ground (alternator housing) or minus terminal of battery
3- Connect green wire (5) to the com/lin/bss/sig/rc/rlo/c/d terminal*
4- Connect blue wire to the dfm+(6) or dfm-(7) / fr (6,7)
*Note - green wire is always used to control alternator
After connecting the WAI1000 to a power source it will bring up the protocol menu.
Please select the proper protocol with the control knob and submit your option by pressing it.

Speed up the alternator to about 1000 RPM
Wait for the WAI1000 to connect to the regulator
When information about the regulator shows up you can control
the Voltage by rotating the control knob
When changing the Vset value Vread should decrease or
increase accordingly
If the regulator supports DFM while Vset changes the value
should also change

H/L setpoint type: Dial knob clockwise for the High (H) set point
until Vset = 15.8V. The Vread value will equal the upper set point
of the regulator (it will not match Vset). Dial the knob counter
clockwise for the Low (L) set point until the Vset = 11.4V. The
Vread value will equal the lower set point of the regulator (it will
not match Vset). Note: Dial settings between the High (H) and
Low (L) will not be accurate.
PWM type: Dial knob clockwise/Counter clockwise to set Vset
value. Vread should increase or decrease accordingly.
If the regulator supports DFM, whilst Vset changes the value
should also change.
Pressing the control knob makes the WAI1000 go back to the

Note: Small dierence between the voltage is acceptable. What is important is the appropriate reaction
of the alternator – increasing or decreasing the output voltage according to the required voltage and
DFM value.
