The RV Automations Alert
Command is an auto generator start system that monitors your shore power and
auto-starts your generator in the event of a power outage. Also monitors the inside temperature of your RV with an optional temperature monitoring sensor.
- Important Note: Text alerts require a subscription of 9.99 per month. Alerts notify you of lost/restored shore power, or when your generator is automatically turned on or shut off, click here
- Monitors shore power directly from a 50/30-amp pedestal. No modifying required to your inverter panel or transfer switch.
- 3 operating
modes monitor when you are connected to shore power, dry camping, and also
works in shore power mode if you don’t have a generator installed.
- Modes:
- Shore Power Mode
- Monitors your RV site shore power.
- If shore power is lost: texts your phone notifying you that shore power was lost, and then automatically turns on your generator, sending another text to confirm your generator started.
- When shore power is restored: texts your phone notifying you shore power has been restored, and then automatically shuts off your generator, sending another text to confirm your generator was turned off.
- Dry Camping Mode
- Monitors your generator status, and sends text alerts when your generator starts and when it has stopped running.
- Note: Works parallel with Class A coaches with a factory-installed AGS system.
- Shore Power / No Gen Mode
- Monitors your shore power and texts your phone when shore power is lost and when shore power is restored.
- Only requires a simple 4-wire connection.
- Temperature Monitoring
- Monitors the inside temperature of your RV with an optional temperature monitoring sensor (20 ft sensor included).
- Pre-programmed to text you when the inside temperature of your RV reaches 85 degrees, or when the inside temperature drops to 45 degrees F

RV Automations Alert Command Auto Generator Start & Temperature Monitoring System
 Step 1: Turn off your generator AC circuit breakers to avoid interruption of shore power service during installation and testing. Warning: To avoid the risk of an electrical shock when connecting to the transfer switch make sure you have turned off shore power at the electric pedestal.  Step 2: Identify the following 4 wires on your generator wiring harness. If using all white wire be sure to mark or label each one, or use color wire for easy identification. On a typical ONAN 8-pin wiring harness the wires are labeled on the harness as follows:- A – Ground – Brown
- B – Stop – Green
- C – Start – Red
- E – Run – Orange
On a typical ONAN 10-pin wiring harness, the wires are labeled on the harness as follows - A – Ground
- C – Start
- E – Stop
- F – Run
 Step 3: Connect one posi-tap to each of the 4 wires identified in Step 2.  Step 4: Make the connection from the wires you have identified in the wiring harness to the corresponding Start, Stop, Run, and Gen Ground slots on the Alert Command female quick-connect. (the 6-slot blue connector included with your unit)  Step 5: Connect 1-wire from the battery +12VDC to the +BAT on 6-slot female quick-connect and connect a ground wire (-12VDC RV chassis ground) to the -BAT on the 6-slot quick-connect.  Step 6: In this step, you are going to run a pair of 120V 14-gauge from your transfer switch to the Alert Command.
Prepare your 14-gauge wire by wiring the included inline fuse to one of the wires. The other end of the fuse can be wired to either black or red load side, both are 120 volts.
Connect the other 14-gauge wire to the neutral (N White wire) on the terminal.
Run these two wires to the Alert Command and insert them in the 2-slot female blue connector included with your unit. (Either wire can go into either slot.
Step 7: If you purchased the optional temperature sensor it comes pre-wired. Simply insert the Temp Sensor connector into the Temp sensor slot on the Alert Command. It only fits one way.  Step 8: Restore your shore power at the electric pedestal. Flip Mode Selection toggle switch to Shore Power Flip Monitoring toggle switch to “ON”.
