• TRAVEL LOCKOUT (Safety)
iN-Command is equipped with a Travel Lockout feature to ensure
certain system functions are unavailable during transit.
When the Brake Signal on the tow vehicle is activated, the iN-
Command will lock down all motorized functions. The Display
Commander (DC) and mobile devices will also display “Travel Lock
Engaged” and the affected buttons will cease to activate.
The lights, water pump, water heater, generator and tanks sensors
will continue to function.
To turn the Travel Lock off, press "Disengage" on the Display
Commander (DC), inside the RV, once the brake signal has been
removed.

The right switch controls the slides.
To use the override switches, locate the switch needed to actuate
the desired component. Rotate the switch underneath the rocker
switch to select the motor. Press up or down on the switch.
The switch is momentary and will activate the motor only while
pressed in either direction.
* The hydraulic overrides are located on the hydraulic
pump; consult the hydraulic pump owner’s manual for
