Ground the two negative posts together. All grounds connect to the battery ground. Positive of one battery goes straight to post marked 1 on the switch. positive of other battery goes to post marked 2 on switch. Engine positive and all accessory positives should go to the "Common" post or bottom post of battery swith. Screw down your switch and happy boating!

Same original question, but regarding the answer, is the "common" post also called the "feeder". My switch has the posts labeled Bat1, Bat2, Feeder, and then two smaller terminal posts labeled "field" which I believe is for an Alternator. I only have two batteries I am looking to use for one trolling motor.

To add. Wire for stereo memory and automatic bilge pump should be wired either directly to positive post on one of the batteries or one of posts on the switch 1 or 2
