Default battery switch?

I have a 1987 bayliner capri cuddy with a 85 hp Force, I just bought a Bluesea battery switch a 1 or 2 off and 1 and 2 Can you please give me a detailed wiring on how to hook two batteries up, I am using one battery for just my outboard and the other just for trolling I want to be able to charge the trolling battery from outboard when it gets low from trolling.
Thanks
Jerry

So as not to do something stupid - which one do you have?

Also, have you gone through their website and searched for instructions?

This is a dangerous question with the information provided so far.

Did the switch not come with any instructions?

More info please...

This thread although on radios has an excellent diagram for wiring a switch similar to what you describe.
