We use the Prodigy P2 controller on our tow vehicle with our Rpod.  Our dealer hooked it up just fine.

Yes, there is a setup procedure to adjust the amount of power (and when the power is applied) to the brakes.  You should familiarize yourself with the procedure as you will have to adjust your brakes on occasion.  You can find a manual (here).

Although the Voyager is fine, you'll be much happier with the P2.  The adjustment procedure is fairly simple and you'll likely only have to do it once or twice a year.
