ELECTRICAL
The energy management and auto generator start systems
work behind the scenes to monitor the power supply
and demand within the coach. The system is designed
to minimize the occurrence of tripped breakers for shore
power and the generator while heavy loads are being
used. The system turns off other loads temporarily while
heavier loads are in use and restores power when heavy
loads are turned back off.
When 50 amp service is available, no action is required;
however, 30 amp service (or less) requires setting the value
of incoming power to be selected.
Energy Management Systems
This article provides an overview of the energy management systems used by Newmar.
Whenever possible, connect coaches equipped with
50 amp shore power cord to 50 amp service, and
connect coaches with 30 amp shore power cords to 30
amp service accordingly. It is the best practice to avoid
using adapters and cheater cord devices.
NOTICE
!
Auto generator features may vary by coach model and
options. Most AGS systems start the generator if shore
power is unavailable and the HVAC system signals for
air conditioner operation. Many systems will also start
automatically if battery levels reach the preset values.
For more information about the energy management
system, refer to the SilverLeaf Coach Management or
Precision Circuits Power Control System documentation
found in Newgle, depending on which system is installed
in the coach.
Monitor Panel
The PCS Monitor displays pertinent Power Control System
status information. The UP and DOWN buttons are used
to step through each individual Screen of information.
Pressing & releasing either the UP or Down button will
step to either the Previous or Next Display Screen. Once
all the Screens have been seen, the next press of the
Button will wrap back around through all the Display
Screens once again. The SET Button only functions when
the Service Type screen is displayed, to Select between
30A Service and 20A Service.
(Note: 50A Service or Generator Service overrides the
SET Button.) If there have not been any key presses for
awhile, the PCS monitor turns off the backlighting to save
on power. The first press of any key will only turn on the
back lighting.
This article provides basic operation instructions for a Precision Circuits Power Control System Monitor Panel (Model: 00-
10019-050).

Panel Operation (Model: 00-10019-050)
Service Type
•
No Service: PCS has 12V Battery power to run
the electronics, however, it does not sense any
120/240VAC Power.
•
50-amp Service: PCS senses 240/208VAC between
L1 and L2 to determine this mode of operation.
PCS controls the loads so that the current does not
exceed L1 limit of 50amps, L2 limit of 50amps, and a
combined limit of 100 amps.
•
30-amp Service: PCS senses 0VAC between L1 and
L2. PCS adds the current of the two sensors and
controls the loads so that the current does not exceed
30 amps.
•
20-amp Service: PCS senses 0VAC between L1 and
L2, and the owner selects 20A on the Central Monitor
Panel. PCS adds the current of the two sensors and
controls the loads so that the current does not exceed
20 amps.
•
Generator: PCS senses power to the Gen Hour Meter
to determine this mode of operation. PCS controls
the loads so that the current does not exceed the
ratings of the installed Generator, for example L1 limit
of 35amps, L2 limit of 35amps, and a combined Limit
of 63 amps.
