System Components

The Freedom SW uses Xanbus, a network communications protocol developed to communicate the Freedom SW’s settings and activity to other Xanbus-enabled devices.

You can configure and monitor the Freedom SW and every Xanbus-enabled device in the system using an optional Xanbus System Control Panel (SCP).

Another component is the optional Xanbus Automatic Generator Start (AGS) which allows operation with a wide range of generators, supported through a dedicated generator input. Simply, the AGS automatically starts and stops your generator.

Xanbus System

The Xanbus system includes the Freedom SW and other Xanbus-enabled devices. The Freedom SW is the device in a Xanbus system that typically provides network power—500 mA at 12 volts DC. All of the Xanbus- enabled devices, such as the Freedom SW, the SCP, and the AGS are able to communicate their settings and activity to each other. See Figure 1.

The Freedom Sequence Intelligent Power Manager is a fully integrated power management system that provides automatic power and load management for use in recreational vehicles (RV) while receiving power from a generator or shore power. This device works in the background to prevent monitored AC loads from exceeding shore and generator breaker capacity.

See “Xanbus-enabled Products and Accessories” on page 7 for part numbers.
