Primary Display Panel
This display panel shows the status of all monitored devices, and is mounted in the grooming area. It can monitor eight devices, however we use only five inputs. These include:
Fresh water top
Fresh water bottom
Gray water
Black water
LP Gas
Sensor Placement
Because the large fresh water tank is 64 inches tall, two sensors are required. The sensors have a physical limitation of 30 inches in length. Again, because of tank configuration, this works out to be essentially a "main" tank and "reserve tank configuration. The top sensor reads the water level in six cylinders. The lower sensor reads the level in the very bottom of the four short tanks and the two tall tanks. The top sensor measures about 60 gallons and the bottom sensor about 35 gallons. The tanks are vented and tied together, so they maintain a common level as they drain and fill, or they equalize fairly quickly. The picture below should clarify the tank configuration and sensor location.

Panel Programming
Each input on the panel can be programmed to behave as desired. The alpha-numeric display shows the name of the tank monitored. There can be an audible alarm when the tank is empty. The alarm can be disabled automatically based on day/night, actually light/dark. However, all these settings are made at the factory and are not changed by the owner.
