RV 3012 M
Here is my responce from Xantrex to the RV3012M question.
I am awaiting a second e-mail to confirm if the new control panel the RC/GS will funtion as well as the older RC7. According to my local tech guy it will. You should be able to set the inverter/charger to your particular application. Kurt Horvath 95 PT-42 [ref:00D3Wjr.500350dxJ:ref] Dear Kurt Horvath, They are very similar units. Below is an explanation of the RV3012M model and then the RV 3012 GS : The RV3012M, which is 3000 watts respectively. These units were only used for Monaco coaches, and the M designation referred to a series of default programming items requested by Monaco. (See the section on RC7 & RC7GS Setup Menus.) Two knockouts on the inverter were left open at the factory. Otherwise they were physically indistinguishable from the regular version, and had no other unique features. Warranty is the same. The "software" defaults which may be different from standard models were: SEARCH SENSE DEFEAT BAT CAPACITY AUTO BAT TYPE LIQUID LEAD ACID CHARGE RATE 80% The RV 3012 GS is the newer version that replaced the RV series. This series looks almost the same as the original RV and largely has the same specs and functions. Its main visual distinction is that it only has two com ports, not three. There were a few enhancements made with the Auto Gen Start feature and programming. Both models were designed for RV use. "RV3012 M be reprogramed to standard specs? If so what would the cost be?" You could program it yourself if you have a RC7, but if you do not have an RC7 then you might be able to locate one by doing a "google" search of the dealers online otherwise they are no longer available as they have been obsolete for awhile now. It would be good to update the system rather than repair the freedom if they are really 15 years old. I suggest the newer RV 3012 GS model rather than the "M" model. But if it is a big difference in cost the "M" model will be fine if an RC7 comes with it. For all correspondence regarding this issue, please make sure to include the case number (00102708) in the subject line of the email.

Is it just an older model or are there significant diffrences between the two units? RV3012 M be reprogramed to standard specs? If so what would the cost be?Can the model I have the old Freedom Combi aqua blue colored units in my coach. They are 15 years old. would it be better to replace these unites with the RV 3012 M or should I just have them refurbished. I am in the process of refubishing all the systems so now is a good time to do the inverter sysytem.
