Some battery switches are designed to allow switching between banks while
the engine is running, others are not. I would suggest you contact the
manufacturer and find out about your particular model. If yours is the type
that must be switched to another bank while the engine is off, then I would
say start with your starting bank, charge it up, then turn off the engine
after it is warmed up and switch to "both", restart your engine warm
(easier) and charge both banks. This can be repeated to charge the second
bank alone as well after the "both" sequence.
I would advise you look into battery isolators and a battery condition
monitor. Hope that helps.
