The new touch panels in the ONDA line offer practical, direct access to all the functions of AL-KO VTE’s ONDA Connectivity control system.
The panels display a wide range of information and command options, all clearly organised and featuring intuitive, user-friendly graphic elements (widgets).
Direct access with a simple touch
Gone are the days of searching through a multitude of menu items using a handful of buttons and complicated key combinations.
AL-KO VTE’s touch panels turn the screen into an interactive keyboard, allowing you to select the desired function directly: with just a few taps, you can access all the sub-menus to interact instantly with your vehicle.
A dashboard for motorhome automation
“
Our touch panels showcase the full potential of the ONDA Connectivity system,” says Antonio Paoletti, Sales Manager DACH Recreational Vehicles Market. “
Just as in home automation solutions, our onboard network connects all the digital devices in the vehicle, allowing them to be controlled from a single unit. The touch panels in the ONDA line thus become true centralised dashboards for control and information, even for third-party devices.”
Well-organised information and controls The screens are divided into four sections.
The information bars at the top and bottom provide essential data.
At the top: date, time and activity signals such as the connection to the external mains supply, activation of the geolocation module, and the Wi-Fi connection with ONDA Connectivity. A dedicated button provides access to the menu.
At the bottom: indoor and outdoor thermometer readings and alerts, such as the fresh water tank falling below 15% capacity, the grey water tank exceeding 85%, or the vehicle battery dropping below the minimum threshold.
The central area on the left houses the main functions related to living comfort, such as the master light switch and the controls for activating the water pump, external light, TV and radio.
Below, two larger icons provide quick links to the widgets showing vehicle battery and water tank data.
All other functions can be accessed via specific widgets in the larger area on the right, which can be scrolled through using the side arrows.
Here you’ll find information on battery charge status, solar power generation from the photovoltaic system, heating and refrigerator controls, indicators for levelling the vehicle horizontally, and much more.
Open to new functions and third-party devices
The number of functions available on the touch panels in the ONDA line depends on the software, which will be continuously updated and enhanced.
AL-KO VTE is constantly working on new possibilities. One example is the “dimmer” function for all connected lights: as soon as it becomes available, a simple system update will be enough to display it as a new widget.
New functions introduced by third-party device manufacturers can also be integrated into the ONDA Connectivity system and made available in the same way, keeping the panels ready for future applications.
The perfect complement to the ONDA app – user friendly
The information structure and widgets used in the panels are the same as those in the ONDA app. Whether you use the app or the ONDA panels, the information and controls look and work exactly the same way. This visual and functional consistency makes handling considerably easier.
Customisable settings
Once connected to the ONDA Connectivity system, the touch panels in the ONDA line are ready for immediate use and provide all available functions and information. Some settings can also be configured directly from the panel, such as the language, the time based on current position, backlight brightness and key tone activation.
In the battery menu, you can record the installation date of the leisure battery, as well as specify its type and capacity, allowing the system to calculate the battery’s State of Charge (SoC) and State of Health (SoH).
Motorhome manufacturers can customise the display’s colour scheme and add their own logo, tailoring the interface to their visual identity.
Available in three sizes
The new touch panels in AL-KO VTE’s ONDA line are available in three sizes: 276 x 165.5 mm (10 inches), 205 x 125 mm (7 inches) and 151 x 80 mm (4.3 inches). Based on IP-TFT-LCD technology, they are ultra-flat and offer vibrant colours along with a wide viewing angle.
The two larger models are already available. The smallest model will go into production in 2026.
