4. Verify that the brakes in the towed vehicle are fully released. Inspect the cable clamp
and verify the cable has not slipped in the clamp.
5. Tape all electrical connections with a high quality electrical tape, and use cable ties to
secure the wires.
6. With the G-Force Controller knob at the bottom of the slot, go to the coach and press
on the brake pedal. The tow wiring must be connected.
Do not connect the tow bar
.
Confirm the activation of the system by checking the light in the back up monitor. If the
system fails to activate, refer to Step #12-1 and re-test.
Step 12: Adjusting the G-Force Controller
Note: The Stay-IN-Play Duo’s activation is progressive in nature. It is designed to activate
briefly in normal stopping (20+ MPH) and longer in harder/panic stopping.
When
adjusted correctly, the Stay-In-Play Stay-IN-Play Duo WILL NOT activate while
stationary.
Locate the vehicles on level ground and turn the switch to “ON.” Place the black knob on
1.
the G-Force Controller at the bottom of the slot and have an assistant step on the brake
pedal of the coach. At this point the system should activate. If it does not, remove the
front screw from the G-force Controller and lower it until the unit activates and then re-
secure it in this location. Slowly raise the knob up. The system may begin chattering,
keep raising the knob. As soon as the pump shuts off completely and then go up another
1/8”. Tighten down the black knob to ensure it does not move.
Test drive the coach while pulling the towed. Drive and stop

NORMALLY
as these are
the conditions for which you want to configure the braking system. The system should
not come on in normal stopping below 20 mph.
If while traveling the system activates too often, raise the knob 1/16”. Repeat step 2.
3.
If while traveling the system doesn’t activate often enough, lower the knob 1/16”. Repeat

step 2.
*The Stay-IN-Play Duo system operates the brakes of the vehicle in the same manner as
you would. The more often it comes on, the more quickly the brakes of the vehicle will
wear. The above adjustment will equal normal driving mileage on the brakes.
Step 13: The Breakaway Cable
Clip the breakaway cable to the hitch-receiver tow-cable holes on the coach and clip the lanyard to the
loop on the breakaway plug. The length of the cable should be long enough that it will not pull out on
the tightest possible turns made in either direction. Also route the cable so that it will not get caught
on the tow bar. It should be short enough that it will pull out before the towed reaches the end of the
