Examples of the regional control panels are shown
below� Refer to Section 8 - Maintenance for wiring
diagrams
NOTE
Several Multiplex control panels are installed
throughout the touring coach. Many fixtures can
be operated on multiple control panels. However,
some of the fixtures they control are unique to the
area in which they are located. For best use of the
Multiplex System Airstream recommends learning
the functions of each individual panel. Refer to the
owner’s manual provided for tips and information
on how to use the system.
Bar Accent Lighting
The Tommy Bahama’s bar area has LED accent lights
installed around the bottom edge of the counter top
and down lighting in the recessed storage area directly
above� Both the accent and down lighting can be
turned on and off using the switch located on the side
of the bar�
120-Volt Power
When you’re plugged into shoreline power or starting
your generator, 120-volt current is fed to an Automatic
Switch Over Box� Power from the box runs to the
120-volt circuit breakers on the Energy Management
System�
NOTE
Make sure to read, understand, and follow all
electrical component owner’s manuals provided
in the owner’s packet before operating the touring
coach. Observe all operating instructions and
Warnings as well as all recommended maintenance
schedules and procedures.
Automatic Generator Start (AGS)
Your Touring Coach is equipped with an Automatic
Generator Start System (AGS) which provides an
optional automatic control of your onboard generator
The purpose of an AGS system is to automatically
start (and run) the generator when the 12 volt electrical
system (house batteries) drops to a pre-determined
level� The AGS can be enabled to monitor the house
battery bank and when it reaches a certain level, the
generator will automatically start, sending a charge to
your batteries� This can protect the system so that your
batteries will not go down farther� Once the batteries
receive a sufficient amount of charge, the generator
will automatically turn off� If you are in a location for an
extended period of time, this can help protect battery
bank when shore power is not available� You should
not enable the AGS during posted quite times in a
campground�
The automatic start function of your generator requires
you to manually enable it� This can be accomplished
by selecting enable on the Multiplex display� You will
then see a warning screen listing the safety issues
associated with AGS usage� You are required to
acknowledge these warnings by pressing and holding
the button for 3 seconds or longer to enable AGS�
Once enabled, AGS will remain enabled until the
Sprinter Ignition is cycled or the generator is manually
operated� After the vehicle is started, the AGS will be
disabled� You can then return to the cabin to manually
re-enable the system� It will then remain active until
the vehicle is turned off� Any cycling, on or off, of the
vehicle ignition will disable the AGS functionality�
If the generator is manually stopped while running
in Auto Gen mode, it will disable future auto gen
starts until re-enabled at the multiplex screen� If
you manually start the generator when Auto Gen is
enabled, it will disable the future auto gen starts until
re-enabled at the multiplex screen�
