Is there an A/B switch for the auxiliary battery to charge it with the engine? Also, is there a switch for changing from self-contained to shore power? If so, where is it located?

The auxiliary battery should automatically charge. There should be a battery isolater to keep the engine from running down the auxiliary.

Thanks for the answer. I think I'll just let the folks at the RV place take it from here.
