Newell Coach is open Mon-Thurs 6:30 AM to 4:30 PM. Sorry I didn't get a chance to call him on Thursday. However, I did talk with Russ and he explained it. The generator runs the inverter/charger and it is wired directly to the house batteries. Therefore, the Battery Merge switch does NOT have to be on (up or down position) to charge the batteries. Putting it in the middle (off position) keeps you from running down your chassis batteries saving them to start your generator.
My Battery Merge switch is located on the bank of 15 switches on the right side of my dash board. Starting from the left it is the 3rd switch moving to the right.
As you know, your battery merge switch could be anywhere depending on the age of your coach. It may be labled "Park Only".
Hope this helps.
