RV Power Management at Your Fingertips

Onan Energy Command Introducing the newest RV power generation solution -- Energy Command. Energy Command is a new line of remote power management panels that provides worry-free control for most Onan diesel, gas, or LP generators.

Factory installed by RV manufacturers in new models, the Energy Command panel will help RV owners with energy management, provide service information and contain enhanced safety functions as well as many additional features. Some of the features of Energy Command include:

  • Automatic generator turn on to meet air conditioning demands for up to four units
  • Regularly monitors and displays battery levels and provides power to the inverter to charge batteries
  • Unique "look-ahead" feature tops off battery prior to "quiet time"
  • Easily program your own "quiet time" hours and battery charging preferences
  • Automatically starts/stops generator on low/full batteries
  • Displays generator hour meter, maintenance reminders and diagnostic text messages for easy troubleshooting
  • Safety start inhibits automatic generator starting in unsafe conditions

"Energy Command highlights Onan's commitment to integrated system controls for RVers to manage their coach power systems," said Ed Pickens, Onan's mobile power systems manager. "This philosophy of customer focused integration will be characteristic of all new Onan products going forward."

There are currently two models of the new Onan Energy Command -- Energy Command 20 and Energy Command 30. Both the 20 and 30 models will automatically monitor batteries and RV generators; however, the 30 model also includes automatic generator starting functions and special safety features. Both models are compatible with Onan RV generators and any type of battery, and are designed to be easily installed by RV manufacturers at a relatively low cost.

In 'layman's' terms -

This feature is quite handy in being able to set the generator to automatically come on when the batteries are low and need to be topped up (in conjunction with a battery charger), you can also set a ‘quite time’, this means that the generator wont start automatically during the night Eg 8.00pm to 6.00am.

This means that if the batteries are low, at 6.01am the generator will turn on automatically, and start charging the batteries.

FAQ

 

Can Energy Command 30 be added to an existing RV?

Energy Command 30 (EC-30) is a very affordable option if you're purchasing a new RV, but it gets more expensive if you wish to add it to your existing vehicle. Connecting all the features of the EC-30 requires running wires from the air conditioner, transfer switch, house batteries, chassis batteries, safety input and generator back to the location of the control. Depending on the specific design of your RV and which features you wish to connect, it will take a technician 8 full hours to properly install an EC-30. If you're looking to purchase an EC-30 for your existing RV, have the dealer quote on installation as well so you know the full cost of adding this feature. Onan does not recommend that RV owners attempt to install the EC-30 on their own as it requires knowledge of electrical codes to safely and correctly install all the wires.

 

Can I install Energy Command 20 by myself?

Energy Command 20 is a fairly easy install if you currently have an Onan remote
panel in your RV. The EC-20 fits in the same hole and uses the same wires. Instructions
included with the control can be followed by anyone comfortable with basic wiring.

 

Which models of generators work with Energy Command?

The Energy Command family is compatible with all current models of Onan RV generators.
