ABOUT THE SYSTEM
The Senders
Each sender panel is a flexible self-adhesive printed circuit board which is
adhered to the side of the holding tank. The sender panel can be cut to length
to match the height of the tank, and auto calibrates so that it can read from
Empty to Full regardless of the height of the tank.
In addition to the level, the sender also transmits diagnostic information
about its operation. This information can be used to determine if there is
buildup of sludge on the inside of the tank, or to determine if the sender is
damaged or delaminating from the side of the tank. If sludge buildup in the
tank becomes extreme the gauge will cease to operate properly, by monitoring
the signal power the tank can be cleaned before the buildup gets excessive.
Multiple senders are available with the ability to double stack the senders to
provide accurate level measurement for tank heights ranging from 3.5″ to 34″.
(See Sender Installation guide for available sender options-link on page 4)
The Display
The display receives the information from sender panels via a single 2
conductor wire and shows the level information in percent of full on a 3-digit
LED display, from 0% to 100%. When the button for a particular tank is
pressed, the display shows the level for that tank.
Battery Voltage
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.
Diagnostics
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, cut, or if the sender panel is defective, then the
display will indicate an error code. The various error codes are shown in the
section entitled “TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE”.
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 level. In the very unlikely event there is an error, servicing is
greatly aided with the diagnostic information.
Bluetooth®
The display has Bluetooth® wireless technology, which allows you to check your
tank levels, battery voltage, and LPG tank levels on any compatible smartphone
or tablet device with a free downloadable app available on Google Play and iOS
app stores. (See separate manual for app installation and operation-link on
page 4)
Alarm Output
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 LPG 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. It could also be used to
prevent toilet use if the black tank is full
LPG
The display can use an existing LPG electrical sender to show the LPG level.
It can be automatically calibrated to any sender and shows the level
information in percent of full on a 3-digit LED display, from 0% to 100%.

When wiring DO NOT use spade connectors to join wires, only use crimp-on butt connectors or solder the wires together.
Display Panel Mounting Template
Mount the display by cutting a hole in the wall with the given dimensions plus
four screw holes. The thickness of the RV wall needs to be thick enough to
retain the screws. The panel will be mounted onto the wall using the four
included #4 screws, or different screws as required. The cutout diagram below
is actual size and can be used as a template. The depth of each model varies
1″ – 1 3/8″ (25 – 35 mm), model dependent.
Connect Wiring to the Display
It is easier to connect the wiring to the display connector first, and then
plug the connector into the display panel. Refer to the wiring diagram for
your model from our Resource Library using the link or QR code on page 4.
The senders need to be grounded to a single ground wire from the display. Make
sure that the system ground is connected to the breaker panel ground.

Program the Display as Primary or Secondary
This setting should normally only need to be done when installing the display.
An optional second display can be added to the system. This allows for a
display in the service bay and one inside the coach. To avoid reading errors
when using dual displays, one display needs to be set to secondary mode. A
display in secondary mode monitors the primary displays sender requests and
will scan the tank levels at a much slower rate if the primary display is
disconnected. The alarms are inactive on the secondary display. All displays
are primary by default.

The only LPG diagnostic code is the open circuit. If the wiring to the LPG sender is shorted then the LPG will always show “0”.
W NOTE: There are no diagnostics for battery voltage.
SeeLeveL II 709-BTP7 Display Manual (DRAFT)
Sender Diagnostics
These diagnostics can be used to check the senders:
Reviewing Sender Diagnostics
The sender diagnostics can be reviewed periodically to check for any
degradation of the tank senders. If a sender appears to be malfunctioning,
reviewing the diagnostics should be the first step in the troubleshooting
process. There are two diagnostics for the senders:
Sender signal power is an indication of how much signal is being transmitted
through the tank wall and picked up by the receive part of the sender. Sender
height is the number of receive segments present in the sender.
PROBLEM
If the signal power is too low.
The number of segments on the sender reporting is less than the amount of
segments on the sender.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
It can indicate a sender which is detached from the tank, excessive buildup on
the inside of the tank, bad wiring to the sender, low battery voltage, or a
defective sender.
W NOTE: Typical signal power should be 50% to 60%. The minimum signal power
for proper operation is 20%. P00 is 100%
One or more segments are not reporting. Either cut sender to a shorter length
or replace the sender.
W NOTE: The senders always auto calibrate to the length that they are cut, so
this diagnostic allows the user to confirm the length and to make sure that
the auto calibration is working properly.
Check Signal Power Diagnostics
1. Press and hold the button for the tank to be checked until it displays the
senders signal strength
2. This is indicated by a “P” showing on the left digit, for example “P26”
indicates a 26% signal power. “P00” is 100%.
3. After 5 seconds of showing the signal strength, the display will shut off.
