  Fail to understand why the SPDT solution isn't much better.  It eliminates two components, lets you test the battery supply anytime and allows power to the ASX-1 to be shut off (presumably only for maintenance).  Or with a DPDT switch one could use the second pole to take power from the 3a fuse and light a big LED warning if the switch is in the battery position.  Granted, there is a new single point of failure but don't see how failure of the ASX-1 prevents completion of the flight as planned.

  Tom's comments planted seeds of a new idea which
  I massaged for several house on the "asphalt drafting
  board" yesterday driving to Wichita.
 
  I'll offer this configuration which I am considering
  as a new z-figure to the 'Connection . . .

  This idea adds a warning light for standby battery
  switch position. This would reduce probability for
  inadvertent depletion of the battery. I've also
  added a fuse to the battery pack which is advised
  especially when the appliance teamed with design goals
  call for up-sizing the stand-by cells.
 
  Let's digest this configuration for awhile . . .
 
  Hat tip to Tom K!
