Default Wiring new Dc/dc converter

I just bought a new 48v/36v-12v 30amp converter. Here is my old wording diagram.
Inputs
Blue=+48/36V
Yellow=48/36V GND
White= enable +48/36v
Outputs
Red=+12v
Black= 12v grnd

New converter:
Yellow= 48/36v + from battery
Green= 48/36 Switched input
Black= GRND
Red= +12 switched output
Blue=12 constant output +

Little different converter from the original one. Will this work I replace of my old one?

The only thing I can think is they are giving you and opportunity to use a 48v switched input (which is what I would do) or a 12v switched output. They must be using the ground in common(?) Strange set up regardless.... So in other words the "Red= +12 switched output" would not be used. All others would be. And that is assuming the green is the "Trigger" wire for switching purposes.

Your new converter has dual +12v outputs:
The BLUE is always ON and You would use for anything that requires +12v at all times, like a radio memory preset or USB port.
The RED one only has +12v when the Keyswitch is ON (GREEN trigger wire has +48v).
The wire Map:
OLD <--> NEW
(Blue=+48/36V) <--> (Yellow= 48/36v + from battery)
(Yellow=48/36V GND) and (Black= 12v grnd) <--> (Black= GRND)
(White= enable +48/36v) <--> (Green= 48/36 Switched input)
(Red=+12v) <--> (Red= +12 switched output)
(N/A) <--> (Blue=12 constant output +)

So when I hook it up, my ground to the new converter is all built into the single ground? Then the blue wire that’s 12v I can leave unhooked unless I need it for a radio or usb?

Awesome I seem to be understanding all this now. Haha
Also on the Ground do I connect the 12v (Black) and 48v(yellow) to the new ground (black) or just use the 48v and leave the 12v alone?

Connect all of the negative wires (grounds) together, if You need to extend the black wire from the new Converter, use 12ga wire.

The black goes to ground.
The yellow to 48 volt positive.
Do not ground yellow.
