I'm 100% certain of that there is nothing else connected to the field circuit, just the sx460 and the 2 wires from the exciter circuit.
I tried hooking everything up 100% by the book, even flashed the field by the book, leaving my exciter wiring disconnected, and got nothing from the generator. the residual magnetism lets it generate about 2-3 volts that';s if you flash its a few minutes before starting, if it sits for much longer you are lucky to get 1-2 volts from it across l1 and l3
