Hello Richard, thanks for reaching out. The ACTH11B is the old Advent analog thermostat which has been discontinued. The only way to upgrade to a digital thermostat would be to replace your controller and distribution box as well. That said, the ACRG15 distribution box you would need has also been discontinued. RV air conditioners now use the new R32 refrigerant, and the old r410a models like the ACRG15 are no longer being made. That leaves you with two options.

You can see if you can find a used ACTH11B thermostat elsewhere online. If that is not possible, the only solution I can offer would be to replace your whole AC system with a new R32 unit. This would mean replacing the rooftop unit, distribution box, controller and thermostat. For that, the Advent # ADV62SR is what I recommend.
