GENERAL INFORMATION

The ATS 5070 series is designed to automatically switch the on board 120 or 240-volt appliances to generator power when the generator is activated.
No longer do you need to go outside, remove the shoreline cord from the pole and plug it into the generator receptacle. You simply start the generator and the ATS5070 will switch the loads for you.

OPERATION

After the ATS 5070 is installed using one of the typical installations shown in this manual, it will be ready for years of trouble free service. Operation is automatic and is maintenance free.

FROM SHORELINE:
To operate appliances from shoreline power, simply plug in the shoreline cord to the power pole at the campground or dock. The ATS 5070 automatically connects all AC Appliances to shoreline power.

FROM GENERATOR:
To operate appliances from on board generator simply start the generator. After about a 20 second delay to allow the generator to stabilize the ATS 5070 will engage, transferring all 120 or 240-volt appliances connected to the ATS 5070 load terminals to the generator.

AUXILIARY CONTACT OPERATION

The ATS 5070 series RV line generator switch when connected as in the typical installation II shown below may control other equipment in your vehicle.
