Monitor Panel

The monitor panel is located inside the side door, above the doorframe to the left of the
bathroom

Power Sources

The monitor panel controls 2 separate power sources; the 12 volt DC power and the
120 volt AC power via the inverter, shore power, or optional generator.

12 Volt DC Power

The power to the 12 volt DC outlets and appliances is controlled by the battery
disconnect switch to the lower left.

On the bottom left is the battery disconnect switch, which supplies 12 volt battery power
to the 12 volt light and other cabin appliances. This switch must be on for any of the 12
volt electrical devices to work. Remember to turn off two switches - the inverter switch
and the battery disconnect switch when your Roadtrek is not being used to avoid
discharging the batteries.

The battery disconnect switch has a blue indicator light to the right of it to show you
when the battery power is on.

Inverter switch for standard 750 watt inverter

Battery disconnect

Monitor panel with standard 750 watt inverter and

optional gasoline generator
