the converter charges the HOUSE batteries not the Engine batteries on most RVs
on some Rvs there is voltage controlled relay combiner called a 'smart relay' that will connect the chassis/engine batteries, after the house batteries reach a set voltage
your batteries are not being charged by the alternator
you have a problem somewhere
in the wiring, turn on the head lights, take a battery reading
then turn on the dash a/c and take another reading
if i had to guess,

you have dash power but no 'starter' power until you push the jumper button
