Operation and Installation Manual
PN 018-01049 Rev 1.6c
Energy Command 30
General
The Energy Command 30 (EC-30) is an Automatic
Generator Starting (AGS) System that provides both
automatic and manual control of Onan Diesel, Gasoline,
and Liquid Propane (LP) engine driven AC generators
(referred to in this manual as a genset). EC-30 also
provides critical system information such as the battery
state-of-charge, key operational information such as
quiet time, genset service and fault messages. EC-30
automatically starts the genset when the battery
becomes discharged or when there is a run request
from an external device such as a Heating Ventilating
and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system. When the battery
is charged, or the HVAC system no longer requires
power, the genset is automatically turned off.
This system is only for use with Onan Recreational
Vehicle genset (Quiet Diesel gensets, and
Gasoline/LP gensets).
For personal safety and to avoid equipment
damage;
• Thoroughly read and understand this
Operation and Installation Manual before
using or installing.
• The EC-30 should be installed by qualified
persons following wiring and installation
details provided in this Operation and
Installation Manual
• If these instructions conflict with the genset
manuals, the genset manuals should take
precedence.
• Keep these instructions with the genset
manuals.
