ems is indeed on the cornerstone. I am not positive on this fact but they might be on all 2015's In the Entegra line up. Lift up the passenger side overhead cabinet and you will see the power control system. From what I understand about the new system it manages electricity depending on the amount of amps you have coming into the coach.

There are two different meanings when it comes to EMS. One energy management system which will shed loads to avoid overloading a circuit. The other is electrical management system which prevents against power surges and high and low voltage. These are often confused.

Ralph and Janet,
It is nearly impossible to get a reasonable estimate of when our coach will be delivered so we may hang around other parts of FLA until we get a decent ETA. Will let you know if things change.

The one on the Cornerstone is a load shedder. You still need to add the Progressive unit to protect the coach which is what I will do.

Newest update!! Am happy to report that squeak in dash was totally eliminated. Test drove the new girl and she ran like a watch!
Walk through went virtually flawlessly.  2 small issues that were corrected immediately. Will be taking procession of coach tomorrow. I know that some other owners have had issues with LD, many with good reason. Our experience has been almost perfect. Sometimes the magic works!!
Will be taking some classes and getting the toad prepped in the next couple of days. DW will be setting the coach up. My job is to stay the hell out of the way and handle things like TPMS, water softener, and EMS installation.
Will post interior photos tomorrow.

Glad to hear everything went well at LD. Nothing better than a happy ending.

Great news....looking to see you on the road. Did you check the number of the TRCi Transfer Switch. I was hoping maybe engineering moved forward with a basic fix. But like you, I'd get the Progressive until I knew for sure.

I didn't get the number but, during the walk around, it was made clear that adding the Progressive was recommended. The transfer switch is basically set up as a load shedder to prevent breakers from flipping when insufficient power is detected. I will be adding the Progressive unit - Post Haste

Thank you for the clarification on what type of EMS is on the 2015's. In the boxes of instruction manuals with the 2014 there was an 8.5x11 warning sheet right in front from Entegra that said an addition of a a Progressive type system was strongly advised, I wonder if that is in the 2015 manuals as well?

I have this EMS-PT50C in addition to my transfer switch/surge setup. Will I be able to use with an Entegra model also?

That will work with all MH's and is not brand specific.

Yes you can. I had mine inside a bay out of site and didn't have to connect and disconnect it each time I hooked up.
This may not be practical on Entegras. But if it is , I would recommend doing it .
