We recently picked up our 2013 Dutch Star and I'm trying to get accustomed to the difference between this and our previous coach.

The Precision Circuits Monitor that is installed did not come with any manual/instructions ... I'll talk to the dealer about that.

In the mean time, in looking at the monitor, while on the gen set ( we are in a storage lot without shore power) it shows the load on L1 and L2 and it varies , as expected, when various things are turned on and off. Also on the display, is what I understand to be the shed list... it has the item, (e.g. AC1, WH,etc.) followed by status ( e.g. on) followed by "0 A" which I assume is supposed to indicate the amp draw. What is this display supposed to be showing me ? When an item is on via gen power, it is always "0". Is it the amps put thru via the inverter to the device ?

There are 3 buttons on the panel, the top one and the bottom one function to scroll thru the display... the middle one doesn't seem to do anything... ideas ?

Thanks

Congrats with your new DSDP PanJH.
Here is a PDF found in the COM_NET2 LINK.

Here is a TSB for washing your coach.

When on 50 Amp or Generator, it does not monitor the devices for amp pull, as it does not shed loads. Only on 30/20/15 does it monitor the actual load, and then shed if necessary.

What is the build date of your coach? You may have the newest firmware installed. If not, then you will only have the option for 30/20 on the selection.

This middle button is only used when plugged into less than 50 amp service. This will cycle between 30/20 or 30/20/15 depending on your software version.

I'll have to look at the release level when I get back down there.... it was built in April so I'm pretty sure it will be the newest.
Thanks for the info and the links... guess it makes sense now !
