Dexter Axle Electric Brakes
I have a 2018, 38' 5th wheel. Recently I was making a hard U-turn and apparently my break-away cable pulled out and my trailer brakes went on. I didn't realize it and drove approx. 1/2 mile and stop...

Your brakes were not adjusted properly, you would have known it the instant the brake away popped if they were!!!
Which brings me back to my original question...these brakes are self-adjusting...what does that process look like? Is it automatic, or do I need to do something in the way I drive to make it happen?
That is a pretty new trailer. Were the self adjusting brakes properly adjusted (manually) when new? After initial manual adjustment, the auto adjust should do it's job.
I agree, full on emergency braking should be quite obvious, if they were properly adjusted.
