The voltage regulator cannot properly adjust the current to a mixture of new and used batteries. The merge is off when the switch is centered, and the switch merges the batteries pushed in either the up or down position. One direction merges using engine batteries to power the merge solonoid, the other position merges using the house batteries. Therefore, the system can be used as an emergency merge if either battery bank is dead.
