I don't know why everyone tends to put it under the bed - why? It's just as easy or easier to open the connection at the Transfer Switch and do it there. Away from the water issue under the bed too. Oh, you said there is no more bypass, your wrong there is on mine anyway. You just switch it to off at the remote.
Here is what the manual says, and mine I just bought:
ByPass | This switch is located on the remote display and allows
the user to bypass the EMS in the event of failure, thus allowing
AC power into the RV. This does not disable the surge protection
portion of the EMS; however, all other features are disabled.
