New Features panel
Tilt-function (15)
To aid emptying wastewater from the tank, allowing the tank, including any soil-debris to empty
quickly. The angle of lean allows the water and any soil-debris to empty quickly, meaning there is no
residual effluent left behind.
• To activate the function switch on the system (No. 5) and then press (No. 15).
The camper will automatically assume the position pre-programmed by your dealer during
installation. There is a maximum inclination angle built in for safety, so that the tilt function never lifts
the wheels off the ground.
Programming of the "tilt function":
• Turn the system on (No.5) and use the "manual mode" to achieve the desired tilt position.
• Turn the system off and on (No. 5)
• Press the (No.12) button five times, then the (No.11) button five times. All LEDs will then light up.
Press the (No.15) button three times.
• Turn the system off and on (No. 5). The tilt function is now programmed.
• To activate the function from now on, simply press (No. 5), then (No. 15).
The camper will automatically assume the position you just programmed every time you activate the
function. However, there is a maximum inclination angle built in for safety, so that the tilt function
never lifts the wheels off the ground.
New error message:
This system contains various error messages that are also described in the manual.
However, this new version (recognizable by the red-orange sticker 1.4) contains
a new error message which is recognizable by the blinking E & P logo and an
acoustic signal. This error occurs if the system loses pressure (hose breakage, leakage, etc.) whilst
driving. If this occurs, STOP the vehicle and call your service dealer. The acoustic signal can be
switched off by applying the handbrake or switching the engine off.
New communication with VB-Airsuspension (air suspension system):
In version 1.4 (red-orange sticker), the level of communication with a VB-Airsuspension system has
been upgraded. This means that software Version 1.4 is not compatible with previous series and
therefore an old control unit cannot be replaced with the new 1.4 unit. The new main unit 1.4 also has
a different communication cable which is not mounted through a relay box. Version 1.4 also does not
work with older versions of VB-software. Contact VB-Airsuspension direct for further information or
updates on their software. For systems without air suspension this not applicable.

STEP 10
VB-EP-connection and compatibility
Introduction
We would like to inform you about the connection between the VB-Airsuspension and the E&P
Hydraulic level systems.
This connection facilitates the VB-Airsuspension lowering prior to E&P automatic levelling, thus
making the vehicle entrance as low as possible and giving the jacks the maximum possible stroke.
Recently both systems have been upgraded to a more sophisticated version (V2). The old version
(V1) and the new version (V2) cannot work together (both systems need V1, or V2). The V2 software
from VB-Airsuspension does not "fit" in every VB-ASCU (=problems during possible future software
updates). Since VB-Airsuspension and E&P hydraulic level systems are 2 independent operating
systems, it is therefore difficult to predict their compatibility when connected together. If a connection
is desired it is mandatory that both systems are checked for compatibility. The diagram below advises
how to check this. In case of a mismatch, consult the corresponding manufacturer, or your dealer
about how to get it working. There are 2 methods to check compatibility;
Method 1 (for aftermarket installations): A check based on the system identification labels. You can
identify the systems based on the following information. And remember to avoid a connection
between V1 (old) and V2 (new) systems:
VB Air Suspension Control Unit (VB-ASCU)
Version
Identification
Software V1
Check the model description on the VB -ASCU label, it must somewhere have the
letters EP.
Software V2
Check the model description on the VB-ASCU label, it must somewhere have the
letters EP.
ASCU V2
Check the ID number on the VB-ASCU label. If the ID number is more than 8 digits
long, then it is the V2 Hardware. If not, check the first 5 digits. If the number is
greater than or equal to: 10461 ..... it is a V2. If not, then it is a V1. A VB (V1)
release is not appropriate for an EP (V2) update.
ps: In case of an illegible VB-ASCU label or label with limited information, we recommend you ask
your dealer to identify the ASCU with a VB-SMT tool. If this is not possible, please contact VB direct.
EP control unit
Version
Identification
V1 (†)
No specific marker known, also out of date (hence the symbol †)
V2
The control unit is marked with a red "V2" label.
ps: If in doubt, please contact EP and ask for additional insert 'Manual Electronic leveling system "
