RV 3012 M
Yeh they told me the same thing, they guy in Bombay told me it stood
for Mobile. After a lot of question and some industrial espionage they m stands for Monaco. They ordered these units for thier coaches with some specific software defaults. All of these can be reprogramed with the control units. According to Xantrex there are only minor and superfical modifactions to any of the RV series inverters/chargers, from what I understand it's mostly the control panels.
