Canuck 53,
With so much of the coach house controlled via an electronic bus and keypads for everything from lighting to shades to HVAC I wanted to find out the heart of the system of the system and what documentation is available.
In other words, when you push to button to turn on the floor heat or all the lights in the coach and nothing happens where do you start troubleshooting. I feel that we are no longer dealing with relays and switches and while technology is great, if a switch panel goes down and needs to be replaced what is the process to pair and program a new switch panel. Or the central controller for that matter.
Then there is the interest in how to interface other devices as well as to maintain the system when it goes out of warranty. The dealer network for almost all coaches can barely keep up with the standard stuff, what to do if the central controller for everything goes down would be a great thing to understand.
It became evident to me that there is a lack of information and documentation on these systems, not only with Newmar, but all coaches embracing this technology.
Right now it is not so much a need to know as a want to know.
