Heyo!

How did you connect alternator to charge solar batteries? I want to connect alternator power to Yandima 100 isolator to both house and engine batteries for charging. I know there are wires that connect to a relay under the drivers seat but can you help me make sense of all that? And I am going to add a manual swith so that I can turn off for "finishing" stage of charging to limit amount of amps. Thoughts?

Answers with pictures would be the shiz.
-Thanks westy gods

I use a Yandina and it works very well.

It comes with support for a force-combine or force-disconnect switch.

The yandina installation instructions have very good general application instructions.

Frankly though, if you have to ask the question of how to install then you're probably better off taking it to someone who understands basic electronics and wiring.
