dry camping
Ross, thank you for the response, I believe I met you at Parliament when you
came back after going to Sanibel. I have the Intellitec control, but can
find nothing in the manual or in the box of files on this instrument. Let
me know if you find out about the auto start. I would like to know how it is
set. You are right about the various fans. They do run a lot. Have you
tried to dry camp any, since your coach is similar to mine?

Hi Jerry,
Digital readout should be above driver on left "Intellitec generator logic
control" Hit the up or down button to change display Time- timer - coach
volts ac -Gen. total time and Ac off. If you have that unit, it will start
genni similar to dash switch. I haven't used auto start yet but will read
that stuff today. Let me know if you have that panel.
I find that battery depletion is too fast but I have found several fans and
pumps renning all the time. The cooling fan thermisters for the audio units
were set too low. The fan for the inverters ran all the time. There is a fan
in the 2nd road side luggage that still runs Possibly the slide control
stuff. With the webasto- the recirc runs continuously- I think it shoud cut
off when the therostats aren't "Calling ".

Thanks for the reply have gone through the manual and the box. Can find

nothing on the auto start for the generator and see no digital read out in

the coach as to condition of the batteries. Bought coach at Parliament.

Previous plastic coaches I had all had digital read out on condition of

batteries.

Jerry,

You should have a blue box, ( portable file box), full of info on

your new coach.

If you don't use the air which even in the best case senario would

only be a few hours, befor you had to start the genny, You should be

able to go for three days or more if you careful, just using the

batteries and the inveters. Who did you buy your coach from? I'm sure

several peoplr will chim in here. I've gone several days without

plugging in, I did have to run the generator during the day for a few

hours just to keep the Batts. up but that really not a problem

unless you get into quite hours. Good luck
