If a sender is operating properly and connected to the display with
good wiring, then the display will show the level normally. If the
wiring is disconnected, shorted, or cut, or if the sender panel is
defective, then the display will indicate an error code. The various
error codes are shown in the troubleshooting chapter.
With these diagnostic features and the digital nature of the tank
level sensing technology, it is almost impossible for the system
to indicate an incorrect water level, and in the very unlikely
event it does occur, servicing is greatly aided with the diagnostic
information.
The system also shows the RV battery voltage by measuring the
voltage which powers the display. The voltage is shown with a
resolution of 0.1 volt.
The display can use an existing LPG electrical sender to show the
LPG level. It can be automatically calibrated to any sender, and
shows level on the LED display in percent of full, from 0% to 100%.
In order to keep the tank level and alarm information current, the
display regularly scans the senders every 10-15 seconds. When a
tank button is pressed, the information displayed is recalled from
the most recent scan. A tank on hold is scanned more frequently.
Systems with two displays are configured so that the primary
display initiates the scanning and the secondary display passively
listens to the sender information, this way both displays stay
updated without interfering with each other.
The single common alarm output can be programmed to indicate
a high or low sewage level, a high or low water level, or a high or
low LP level. More than one alarm can be assigned to the alarm
output. This output can be connected to an indicator light and
used to show a high sewer level and/or a low water level, alerting
the user that attention is required. Another example is the alarm
could be used on the black tank to prevent toilet use when the
tank is full.
