My best advice is to go ahead and upgrade both of them since one has failed. The reason is because if you replace one, then the other is just as old and could go out at any time. Then you'll be stuck in the same jam again. 4 whopping cylinders on Toyota RV's. Talk about great getting good MPG. Also I have a very light foot on the pedal. I followed some MPG advice on Livingpress.com and I now get 22 MPG! Not bad for a home on wheels.

Try Magnum. They are very good also.

Replacing one with another brand or model would require adding a second remote display panel. I have the RS3000 and know that the SCP (System Control Panel) can handle multiple devices, including AGS modules. I plan on upgradiung my RS3000 to a Magnum some day though. The RS3000 isn't bulletproof, is made off-shore, and was never field serviceable while the Magnum has all three of those areas covered. It's possible that two Magnums may be able to communicate to a single Magnum remote controller as well. That would take a phone call to Magnum to verify but I know that Entegra uses dual Magnums on the Cornerstone and I don't recall seeeing a second panel.
