The control unit (6), which is mounted inside your caravan, is responsible for controlling the autoSteady
system.
The control unit has three LED’s, one pushbutton and one slide switch (Fig. 11):
Green LED (Fig. 11A):
Power LED continuously lights up when the system is activated (by moving slide switch of the remote handset
to “On”-I). If the remote handset is far away from the control unit, beyond the availably distance, this LED will
start blinking.
Blue LED (Fig. 11B):
Error message LED concerning caravan battery:
Blue LED is blinking (2 times blinking, break, 2 times blinking, break etc.): Battery voltage too low (<10V).
Battery needs to be recharged.
Blue LED is blinking (4 times blinking, break, 4 times blinking, break etc.): Battery Voltage too high (over
charged). Try to discharge the battery by turning on a user (for example a lamp or water-pump).
Red LED (Fig. 11C) is blinking (6 times blinking, break, 6 times blinking, break etc.):
Amp overload protection is activated. Maybe the system has a current-shortage. Please check the whole system
carefully. Wait about 60 seconds and try again.
In general all error messages will reset automatically after one minute. If this is not the case, reset the
electronics by switching off the system via the isolation switch and the remote handset for at least 15 seconds
and then turning it on again.
The Reset Button (Fig. 11D):
The remote handset and the control unit are synchronised with each other in the factory. If the control unit or
the remote handset is replaced, they must be re-synchronised as described in chapter OPERATION - REMOTE
HANDSET: “How to synchronise the remote handset with a new manoeuvring system or autoSteady
control unit”
Jack-up force switch (Fig. 11E):
The system is suitable for a big range of the caravans. To make sure that the system is always working
properly and your caravan is stable, the Current-protection can be adjusted via a slide switch on the control
unit (Fig. 11E):
L: Low current for caravans up to 1000kg
M: Normal current for caravans in the range of about 1000 – 1500kg
H: High current for caravans in the range of about 1500 – 2000kg
Different caravan chassis or floors have different situation for jack-up force. The above mentioned values are
just a rough indication. Please check what is the most convenient for your caravan so your caravan or caravan
chassis will not be damaged but still your caravan is stable.
Bluetooth adapter connector (Fig. 11F):
The control unit can be expanded with an optional Bluetooth adapter (ENDURO
®
BC101) for controlling the
autoSteady system with a Smartphone or tablet. When connecting the cable, the battery power isolation switch
must be turned off.
Please make sure you read the safety instructions very carefully and make sure that you
follow these guidelines!
Make sure that the battery that supplies the system is fully charged and in good condition.
Make sure that the caravan is free from the vehicle and the handbrake is on.
Before you can start using the autoSteady system, please make sure you caravan is already levelled out in all
directions. Please use the supplied tool (3) and accomplish this the usual way.
Just as the standard corner steady of your caravan can only be used for stabilising, also the
autoSteady system cannot be used for jacking up or levelling out your caravan.
Once the caravan is levelled out, you can start using the autoSteady system.
Turn on the battery power isolation switch (23).
