I’m finishing up my stereo system in my truck .
The last thing I need to do is install the high output alternator and battery bank .
I will be running this alternator separate so it only charges the back battery and will have nothing to do with the stock charging system this is a stand alone alt .
I tried contacting the manufacturer but never heard back .
This alternator has a external regulator.
Here are some pics but it’s been awhile since I hooked up systems .
My question is
1 terminal of the regulator goes to constant power
Another Terminal goes to ground
Then there is a terminal that goes to the field
And last terminal goes to switched power/solenoid output power .
The plug on the alternator has only 1 wire coming out .
So the question is what is the field wire ?
And what is the switched power/solenoid output ?
Wondering how I hook this up ?
I need to know what to hook the wire coming out of alt goes to
What the field wire goes to ?
And the switched power/ solenoid output goes to ?
Any info would greatly be appreciated

(green) Field - alternator wire connnects here
(yellow) Ignition power - Use a add a fuse and find a 10A or higher fuse to tap into that is ignition hot only.
(blue) to battery + (I suggest alternator stud)
(pink) is ground (I suggest on alternator chassis)

I hooked it up as described and it doesn’t work correctly .
With the dial set all the way down the alternator still charges at 17 volts which isn’t correct . It should only charge at 15.4 volts
The manufacturer will not give any info on how to hook it up .anyone have any suggestions?
