2008 American Coach Tradition Zone Air

Just purchased a 2008 American Coach Tradition 42F Tag. I'm trying to figure out my air conditioners. I have three and they are on a three zone system that is set up as follows:

Zone 1: Heat (Aqua Hot 450), Fan, Cool (air)

Zone 2: Heat (Aqua Hot450), fan, Heat Pump, Cool (air)

Zone 3: Heat (Aqua Hot), fan, Cool (air)

My question is this... When I turn all three zones to cool, nothing seems to happen with zone 3. I found this out as I turned them on one at a time to test and nothing happens with zone 3. With zone 1&2 air on, all the vents are producing cold air, so what the heck does zone 3 air do?

    Does the fan work on zone 3? Does 3 cool when the other two zones are off? How big of a generator do you have? If it's not a 10K then your coach is probably setup to only run two AC at a time.

    Do you have a switch somewhere that might switch between the washer/dryer and the center A/C unit? Our Executive has such a setup. We cannot run all 3 A/C units AND the washer/dryer at the same time.
