Progressive Industries EMS Display says OFF

[Tony and Rhonda]

All,

I'm plugged into shore power and I think everything's working. I've looked at the EMS manual and found the error codes but didn't see how/where to turn the EMS on.

Can someone tell me how to turn the EMS on?

Thanks, Tony

Mine has an on/off switch on the front of the remote display. It’s sort of recessed to prevent accidentally turning the surge protector off.

Thanks @mountainoliver, that was the problem. My display is in the basement/trunk and I couldn't see the switch until I put a flashlight on it. My switch also is not recessed, it sticks out, so something must have bumped it on the road.

Thanks again, Tony

Does it actually turn the EMS off, or just the display?

The owners manual says that it actually turns off the surge protector function. I have a small piece of black foam in the switch recess to prevent accidentally turning the surge protector off.

I misspoke about the switch. It is mostly recessed, very little actually protrudes above the faceplate. It can be bumped off, just not as easily.
