Based on its location in the 'dump' compartment - I'd like to think/hope it is a 'tank rinser' - if your rig came with one...

Would attach a hose isolated from your drinking supply (vacuum breaker at least) - and run once the tank is empty... Should hear it running into the tank - and see the results coming out (a short clear extension at the exit before standard sewer hose helps with the seeing part.)

I keep a dedicated hose in the sewer/dump compartment for the rinser.
Yes - the rinser should have its own backflush preventer - but...

That’s kinda my thoughts as well as to its purpose. I’ll connect a hose and test once I’ve studied this and thought a little about it. Thanks for confirming what I was thinking....

The text on the white hose connection reads "San-T-Flush" so yes, that is the hose connection for your black tank flush and like "gmc" mentioned be sure to use a dedicated hose with a backflow preventer for the obvious reasons,

Enjoy the journey!
