The Aqua-Hot Reporter
The Aqua-Hot Reporter is a new generation of command and
control module that manages all functions of the Aqua-Hot from
start-up to shutdown. The previously used electronic control
board has been retired on new units in favor of the Reporter.
There are two series of Reporters presently in use: Reporter
1.0 and Reporter 2.0. Reporter 1.0 was launched November
30, 2018, and Reporter 2.0 was launched September 9, 2019.
The launch of Reporter 2.0 allowed an opportunity to improve
upon the 1.0 design where ever it was deemed necessary. The
Reporter 2.0 features the following design improvements:
• Over-Temperature Fault Functionality
• Precise fl uid coolant temperature display
• Boost pumps are now powered directly by the Reporter
• 600 Series heaters may now select a pump for fl uid stir.
Reporter 2v11 or higher screens will show the optional
boost pump selection:
Functionality:
The Reporter was designed with a touch-screen interface to
simplify and standardize unit use and troubleshooting. Screen
navigation and access is now standardized across the Aqua-Hot
600 Series (D04 and newer).
The Reporter also contains fault logging functionality,
troubleshooting tools, and testing functions. Each of these
functions will be explained in detail.
Basic Features:
The Home Screen is the fi rst screen shown on the Reporter.
Reporter 1.0 and Reporter 2.0 home screens do differ.
The most substantial difference between the Reporter
1.0 and 2.0 is the inclusion of a thermistor in place of the
standard control thermostat. This allows specifi c Aqua-Hot
coolant tank temperatures to be displayed on the Reporter, and
relayed to the on-board comfort control systems (if the coach
manufacturer installs one). The tank temperature sensor allows
more granular control of the Aqua-Hot by switching away from
the static temperature limitations imposed by the previous
control thermostat.
The Reporter contains a host of diagnostic and troubleshooting
tools to more easily repair and operate Aqua-Hot units. These
features are organized into pages and sections that are further
explained in this guide.
Home Screen
The home screen contains information about the Aqua-
Hot system status, as well as model and serial number
information.
Fault Status
The fault status page contains the last seven faults which
were observed by the Reporter, regardless of how much time
has passed.
Coach Side I/O
This page of the Reporter will indicate the current status of
elements and switches within the coach; such as, the coach
is requesting hot water or heat.
Aqua-Hot I/O
The Aqua-Hot I/O page will show the current status of
elements, sensors, and components within the Aqua-Hot
itself.
