Visited a friend last week who had an autohomes van. In the van was a zig unit that seemed to have either a built in voltmeter or a meter for the water tank

Anyone know what zig unit it could be an where to get a copy of the manual

Sorry for being vague but I forgot to take a picture of it

It just had autohomes written on it and no zig model number

Zig MC2000? Best image I have...



That's a water gauge on the right. There is a version of the simple CP400 unit with an analogue meter battery condition indicator instead of the usual red or green LED's display called the Marque 1 Control Panel, middle right here http://www.zig-electronics.co.uk/products.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I wasn't aware Autohomes labelled them with their logo though You sure it's not an AutoSLEEPER control panel?

Think it is an autosleeper actually. it was a very quick look i had

E D I T:

I assume it's this one but as I said there was no model number just autosleeper written on the facia

Yes that's the Autosleeper one.

thanks for the wild goose chase, I needed the exercise


I see you've changed the title of the thread now too

this is not a zig unit



it's just an Autosleeper control panel cruz.

Holy Thread Resurrection Batman!!!

I have that same 'autosleeper control panel' in my van.

Can it be used / rewired to charge my crank & leisure batteries when I'm on mains hook up? Or is it only zigs that do that?

No it's just a control panel..there's no charger in there
hard wire a charger in the van somewhere convenient

Cool thanks, would something like this fit the bill ...?

Ooooh and could I be clever and wire it in such a way that it went thru my split relay (on tag 86) so that it could charge both the crank and leisure battery as required?

Or would that result in a fiery death?

For charging the leisure battery that would be perfect

Could I install one of these to my Devon? No need for seperate charger.

I guess my Dev has a split relay too. I just wire it in before that and it will charge both batteries also.

Looked at other cheap second hand stuff on eBay, but guess would need the seperate charger and would add complication for sake of a few quid.
