Sensors Screen TPMS Screen Notes Introduction Thank you for purchasing the OneControl ® with A7 Touchscreen, the OCAU™ System.

Safety Read and understand all instructions before installing or operating this product. Adhere to all safety labels. This manual provides general instructions. Many variables can change the circumstances of the instructions, i.e., the degree of difficulty, operation and ability of the individual performing the instructions. This manual cannot begin to plot out instructions for every possibility, but provides the general instructions, as necessary, for effectively interfacing with the device, product or system.
Operation Power On/Off During normal caravan operation, the OCAU System will be on. Users may choose to power-down the system for maintenance, to conserve battery or when putting the vehicle in storage. There are two ways to power on and off the OCAU System. If pressing the OCAU GUI produces no graphics, images or buttons, the A7 Touchscreen may be off.
Connecting the OCAU System to a Smart Device The OCAU System uses BlueTooth® to connect to a user’s smart device. On the Home Screen, tap the Settings gear icon to navigate to the Settings Screen (Fig. 2). Scroll to the bottom of the Settings Screen to find Device Connection (Fig. 3). Hit the refresh button to find the available wireless networks (Fig.
Operation By design, the OCAU GUI will display the home screen most of the time. Users may select other screens, such as Settings, Sensors and Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPMS). NOTE: A caravan’s content will determine the Home Screen’s configuration, such as the number of water tanks, switches, and accessories like LP tanks.

The controls underneath the Header Bar allow the user to power on and off the OCAU Interface, operate lights within the caravan and select the caravan’s energy source. The controls above the Navigation Bar allow the user to operate slides and turn on the Water Heater and Pump.

The center of the OCAU GUI showcases vital resources at-a-glance. Water tanks, including fresh and grey, occupy the left side, while energy sources like LP and battery are on the left. No scrolling is required to see all features. At-A-Glance Lifeline Vitals Fig.
Reading Water Levels The caravan may be equipped with up to three clean water tanks. When a tank is full, it will show four blue quadrants in a vertical stack (Fig 7). NOTE: The number of tanks displayed is determined by the number of tanks installed on the caravan at the factory.
When the Water Tanks are empty and the Grey Tank is full, the following alert will display (Fig. 9). When tanks are refilled and/or emptied, their colors change to reflect their status. Fig. 9 LP Tanks Like Water Tanks, LP Tanks are blue when they are full (Fig. 10A). Fig.
Battery Level The Battery Level is shown in increments of 10. When the battery is full (100%), all 10 increments are green (Fig. 11A). The Battery's estimated life time is also displayed (Fig. 11B). Fig. 11 Battery status is shown graphically in increments of 10%. At 50%, the increments turn yellow. At 20%, the increments turn red.
Settings Screen From time to time, the user may need or want to make changes to the settings. Those can be easily accessed by touching the Settings gear icon (Fig. 13A) at the bottom OCAU GUI along the Navigation bar. This will open the Settings screen.

The entire left side of the Settings Screen is dedicated to the caravan's water tanks (Fig. 15). The user may assign unique names to each tank and turn them on and off. Fig. 15 A caravan may have up to 4 water tanks. These tanks may be set up at the factory or by the user. A user sets up their water tanks by turning them on.

On the top right hand side of the Settings Screen, the user can calibrate the battery system (Fig. 16) by selecting the chemistry type of the battery. Fig. 16 A user will need to enter the total Amp Hour capacity. This may vary by coach or if the user adds or changes batteries.
Sensors Screen The OCAU System integrates accessory sensors so that users can access them conveniently through the OCAU GUI or Mobile App. Fig. 19 TPMS Screen If the caravan has TireLinc™ installed, the TireLinc icon will display on the bottom of Home Screen, along the Navigation bar.
