New wireless remote control for Cummins Onan RV generators

Wednesday, August 11, 2010 by Garry Enyart

Cummins Onan has introduced the newest RV power generation solution — the Energy Command™ EC-30W. The EC-30W, an addition to the Energy Command product line, is the first autostart system specifically designed for RV owners to install themselves, providing worry-free control for most Cummins Onan diesel, gas or LP generators.

While makers of high-end diesel RVs have added autostart as a factory option in recent years, most RVers who could use an autostart system on their existing RV don’t have one. Because the EC-30W is wireless, most RV owners can install it on their own without paying for installation.

At the same time, the EC-30W maintains several features unique to the Energy Command family:
  • The EC-30W will start the generator only if shorepower is NOT present and batteries get low or the RV gets too hot. This allows the RVer to use the EC-30W as a backup to shorepower in campgrounds with weak or intermittent power.
  • An accelerometer detects when the RV moves, to help prevent the EC-30W from accidentally starting the generator when the RV is inside an enclosed space.
  • Battery backup maintains settings in the EC-30W when power is removed. (You don’t have to constantly reset the clock.)
 
The EC-30W consists of a receiver that is wired to the generator and a handheld transmitter that is used to automatically start and stop the generator as required to maintain battery health and temperature inside the RV. It remotely starts and stops a generator from up to 100 feet away, and it is compatible with all current-model Cummins Onan RV generators.

Cummins Power Generation Blog !

Thursday, January 14, 2010 by Flavio Mello

Hello World,

This is the official blog for Cummins Power Generation and Cummins Onan.

The internet has changed the way in which people communicate and interact – new means of conversation and self-expression mean that media and information are now highly devolved and diverse.

So, basically we could either have to totally ignore this medium or fully embrace it – going half-measures would have been a waste of your and our time. So, we are joining in the conversation and giving our views on the subjects we are experts – Industrial Generators, CHP Cogeneration, Gensets for Marine, RV and Residential, and much more.

We will be up front, and we will respect the values and codes of the blogging world. This isn’t a fly-by-night product related spam push. We’re here for the long-term and willing to discuss topics with you and the wider community, so feel free to join in with your views on what we’re about. Also we’re not just here but elsewhere online – be sure to check out out on Flickr, YouTube and Twitter as well, or become a fan of us or a member of the Cummins Power Generation on Facebook.

Thank you very much !
