Sender Type
This setting presets the Resistance Lo and Resistance Hi values based on the type of sender attached to the meter. The available options are listed below:
• USA– North American Standard type of sender between with a resistance between 240 and 33 ohms.
• Euro – European Standard type of sender with a resistance between 10 and 180 ohms
• 1810 – Blue Sea Systems Ultrasonic Tank Sender for Diesel, Water & Waste.
• 1811 – Blue Sea Systems Ultrasonic Tank Sender for Gasoline Only
• Cstm – Indicates the Resistance Lo or Resistance Hi value has been manually changed.
Resistance Lo/Resistance Hi
The tank meter operates by reading the resistance of the tank sender. The resistance value (in ohms) can be entered here for an empty tank
(Resistance Lo) and for a full tank (Resistance Hi). Changing either of these values when the Sender Type is set to either 1810 or 1811 will give
unpredictable results when an Ultrasonic Tank Sender is used.
