5.13 Fuel Level Indicators
This equipment provides indicators that show both the approximate location where
you may run out of fuel and the distance you can travel with the remaining fuel. This
function requires the NMEA 2000 sentence PGN127489 (Engine Fuel Rate).
Fuel max range indicator (on route)
The fuel pump icon marks on the current route how far you can travel on the remaining
fuel. To show this marker, tap [Settings]→[Routes]→[Fuel Max Range]→[ON].
Fuel range indicator (ring about own position)
The fuel range indicator draws a circle about own ship, the radius of the circle equiv-
alent to the distance you can travel with the remaining fuel. To show this indicator,
[Settings]→[Ship & Track]→[Fuel Range Ring]→[ON].
