Blue Smart charger & Orion Smart DC-Dc

I have just upgraded my RV with Li-Ion batteries & a MultiPlus 11 with a CerboGx, on my existing insulation I have a Orion Smart 24/24-17 DC-DC charger, as my MAN 18/240 truck starter batteries need to be charged regularly I do this by way of a Blue Smart 24/16 charger, NOW my question is I see that when the Blue Smart charger is connected to the starter batteries the Orion Smart DC-DC switches on for 20 seconds showing bulk load, & then off for 10 seconds and then on again, is this a problem? Also I want to connect the 4Amp starter battery outlet from the Multipluss to the starter battery, is this in order or will it cause problems with the DC-DC going into the charge cycle for the RV batteries?

To add to the above it looks like that once the Blue smart starter batteries chargers voltage got high enough the Orion Smart DC-DC remained perminatly on charging the Li-Ion batteries & the Blue smart was running hot, has anyone experanced this? any way to solve this problem?

Is there a wiring diagram showing how to TURN-OFF the Orion using wire from the Ignition Key?
