SWIFT COMMAND POWER CONTROL SYSTEM
2. Using the System
2.1 Power Supply Unit - Component
Layout (see image above)
The PSU is located in the lower bed box,
wardrobe or similar area.
2.2 Activating the System
The system has a shutdown feature that can
be used when the vehicle is in storage. This
allows the leisure electronics to be turned
off when not required to save battery power.
When in the off state the alarm and tracking
system supplies are still active, all other
supplies are turned off.
Before using the system please ensure the
system shutdown switch is in the on position
(button in) the system is now active.
Note: if you plan to use the Swift Command
remote features the system needs to be active.
2.3 Connecting to the Mains 230V supply
and Safety checks
For your safety it is IMPORTANT that you
follow these connections instructions each
time your Leisure Vehicle is connected to a
mains supply. This section assumes that the
system is complete and that a Leisure battery
has been installed (see 3.4).
A) Ensure suitability of the Mains Supply.
Your Leisure Vehicle should only be connected
to an approved supply that meets the
requirements of BS7671 or relevant harmonised
standards. In most cases the site warden will
hold information regarding suitability of supply. If
using a generator you also need to comply with
the requirements / instructions supplied with
the generator. Please note that some electronic
generators may not be compatible with your
leisure system. Further generator operational
information is contained in section 3.2.
B) Switch the PSU Battery Charger /
Power Converter OFF.
Locate the green ‘Charger’ power switch on
the PSU and ensure the switch is in the off
position (button out) before connection to the
mains supply.
C) Connect the Hook-up Lead.
Firstly connect the supplied hook-up lead
(orange cable with blue connectors) to the
Leisure Vehicle and then connect to the mains
supply.
D) Check Residual Current Device
operation.
Locate the RCD within the PSU and ensure
the RCD is switched on (lever in up position).
Press the ‘Test’ button and confirm that the
RCD turns off (lever in down position). Switch
the RCD back to the on position (lever in up
position). If the test button failed to operate the
RCD see section 3.1.
E) Check Miniature Circuit Breakers
Locate the MCB’s within the PSU (adjacent to
the RCD) and ensure they are all in the on (up)
position. If any MCB’s fail to ‘latch’ in the on
position see section 3.1
F) Turn the PSU ON.
Locate the black ‘Shutdown’ button and ensure
it is in the on position (press button in). Locate
the green ‘Charger’ switch on the PSU and turn
to the on position (press button in). The charger
switch will illuminate when turned on.
G) Check correct Polarity.
Locate the ‘Reverse polarity’ indicator on the
PSU and ensure that the indicator is NOT
illuminated. If the indicator is illuminated see
section 3.2.
H) Check operation of equipment.
It is now safe to operate the 12V and 230V
equipment.
2.4 Operation while driving
The power control system is designed to
shutdown parts of the system while the engine
is running. This is to meet Electro Magnetic
Compatibility (EMC) regulations and to ensure
the safe operation of the motorhome. With the
engine running the screen will show a warning
‘ENGINE RUNNING’.
Please ensure the system shutdown switch on
the PSU is in the on (button in) position before
driving (see 2.2). This will ensure the electronic
system is active and will therefore be able
to control the charging process, supply the
refrigerator and monitor other system circuits.
If / when fitted, designated 12V sockets, en-
route reading lights and en-route heating will
remain operational while the engine is running.
