Shore Power and things!
A couple of days a go, I took the RV (2015 Tiffin Allegro Red) on a 75 mile run just to exercise the truck portion of the RV. Prior to removing the shore power the remote would change from floating charge to full charged. (normal operations, so I am thinking). It had been like that for some time. After returning, I parked the RV back and hooked up my shore power, waited 128 seconds of the Surge guard to through its checks then the transfer switch connected, the remote went into a High AC Volt Alarm. I selected the inverter button on the remote and the High AC Volt Alarm went away. I thought at this time I was on shore power but I believe I was wrong. Checked the RV this morning and started the generator and the remote status showed the batteries at bulk charge, seems I was on battery power as I now must take the batteries through Bulk, Absorb, Float and Full Charging. I understand that shore power and generator power go through the transfer box. Everything works with the generator. I have verified voltage into my surge protector from the shore power hook up. After I get the batteries charged, I'll conduct the inverter reset IAW the manual. Seems the more I learn about the RV the less I know. Any advice??
