•Disconnect power to the power relay module prior to HiPot testing of the camper or the microprocessor will be damaged.

Refer to MPD 87903 and 71125 for complete installation, operation and maintenance instructions for camper jacks and landing gear respectively.

For your safety

read all instructions before operating

Installer: Provide these instructions to the consumer.

Consumer: Keep documents for future reference.

Our remote control is designed for use only with Electric Ball Screw Truck Camper Jacks (EBSTCJ) equipped for remote control capability and Atwood Landing Gears. Atwood makes two types of EBSTCJ; one with remote capability and one without; they are not interchangeable.

mwarning

Personal injury & product damage

•To deactivate the wireless system when you are finished hold down the power-select on the remote until the LED turns off.

•Only operate jack system when camper or trailer is unoccupied.

•Store remote in a secure place, away from access by children.

•Remove the battery from the handheld remote before storing to prevent accidental jack activation or continuous remote transmission. If the remote is continuously activated by a jammed or shorted button, operation of other remote devices such as vehicle keyless entry systems and/or garage door openers may be interfered with or prevented.

mwarning

explosion

•To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, do not use

your remote near electrical blasting caps or in a blasting area or in areas

posted: turn off two-way radio. Obey all signs and instructions.

•Do not use the remote near explosive atmospheres.

Explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities: areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally

1.Install the power relay module in a clean, dry interior area protected from moisture. Use the four (4) 1/4˝ diameter holes for mounting the module relay (K). Position the base on the mounting surface and secure it using appropriate hardware for the wall material. Orient antennae straight away from base. Permanently secure antenna to mounting surface with appropriate hardware. Mount the base RF receiver unit (K) in the selected target location. Take care to ensure that the antenna on the board is not located next to other electrical wiring which could interfere with operation. Take care to ensure that the target location has good RF reception (avoid “faraday cage” scenarios, i.e. metal box).

mcaution

product damage

•Failure to orient antennae properly will result in intermittent operation of the wireless remote system.

note: Correct polarity must be observed as noted on the circuit board next to 5 & 4-H. The unit will not function if the input power is installed in reverse polarity. See fig 5 & 4.

2.supply power to unit: The unit operates from a +12 VDC battery and must be supplied through a 40 AMP circuit breaker (fig 4E & 5-E). Route the #8 AWG, +12 VDC from the circuit breaker and the ground wiring, to the terminal block (fig 4H & 5-H).Terminate the wires in the labeled positions.

3.Route the two #10 AWG wires from each jack to the terminal block 4-I & 5-I. Refer to the labels next to each terminal position for driver front, passenger front, driver rear, and passenger rear jacks. Connect the wires for each jack.

4.Install the Activation Switch near the floor just inside the door of the pickup camper or in an outside compartment of the fifth wheel. Plug the flat cable (fig J) into the left side of the power relay module (fig 4 & 5-S) and route to the location of the activation switch (fig 4 & 5-Q). Plug other end of the cable into the back side of the activation switch. Connect the optional accessory harnesses (controlling up to two additional motor outputs) to their associated connector on the base receiver. Any use of the accessory ports needs to be approved in advance by the manufacture of the accessory. Connect the power harness to the base receiver. Take
