DEANS connectors mishap
Heyo!
I got my new E-Flight Pinnacle charger in the mail. I also recently converted all of my connectors to DEANS. I'm trying to charge two 6-cells on it at once (can handle 1-14)
I think I connected the triangle hook-up wrong (see link)
I made a picture with paint to show its current (yuk yuk yuk) state.
I got the message ERR2 (short circuit warning) when I connected the batteries at .2A
I probably just need to switch around a few wires...
Could someone please help?
schematic of my connections

DEANS connectors mishap
looks like the battery on the right needs to have the negative wire on top
Like this:
[+]-[+][-]-[-]
[-]--------[+]
[+][-] is the plug, [pos][neg]
or maybe this will help better:
Batts
[(+)|(-)]....[(+)|(-)]
...|....|........|....|...
...|....|_____|....|...
....\___........___/....
.........|.......|...........
.........[(+)|(-)]........
Charger
... = space
\, _, | = wire
[(+)|(-)] = connector
