First, it goes like this:

+12v ---------------------- contactor in (on board)
contactor out(on board) -------------- contactor coil PLUS

contactor coil ground ------------- +12v battery ground.


You will also need to run the angle offset test, and stuff like that.
Well... i have it like this now:

+12V-->EV200 coil+ --> EV200- -->small relay contacts-->GND
while i command small relay trough PCB relay ===> relay PCB+ --> relay PCB- -->GND
==> is actually single wire from inverter, i am low on wires so i connected gnd to inverter alu box.
The same for precharge relay. I measured continuity on all contacts and it checks out. It works. I had to add intermediate relay since EV200 needs a clear GND to latch. I guess economiser makes trouble. I saw the same problems with Johannes inverter. There i use one NPN transistor to open collector trigger small relay which in turn latches EV200. DOH!

Since there is another relay in the wiring i can use it as a safety and wire EMG button to remove GND from relay so EV200 goes out.
