Regarding EMS systems, you need to be specific as to the brand and type because there are many different ones made for RV's.
I am ASSUMING that you are speaking of the commonly used Intellitec EMS system which is an option that can be added in some RV's. That specific EMS system is designed for use by a 50 amp coach when hooked to shore power that is LESS than 50 amps, it will monitor and shed devices inside your coach making sure that you don't use over the maximum number of amps available.
There is another EMS system built by Progressive Industries that serves a completely different purpose. This one is, by far, more important to have as it will save you thousands of dollars in possible electrical damage.
Here is a good explanation of it purpose and use.

Also, the BYPASS switch is only used when one of the internal EMS PC boards may have a defective circuit which prevents the contactor from closing allowing power to your coach. It should NOT be used unless the pedestal had previously been checked for GOOD power. It will allow your coach to have power until the new PC board has been replaced with a good one.
