Calibrate
Calibration may be required to accurately match measured flow with actual fuel flow. Access
calibration from the Refuel dialog. Calibration is only possible on Navico’s Fuel Flow sensor.
1. Start with a full tank and run the engine as it would normally be operated.
2. After at least several liters (a few gallons) have been used, the tank should be fully refilled,
and the Set to full option selected.
3. Select the Calibrate option.
4. Set the actual amount used based on amount of fuel added to the tank.
5. Select OK to save settings. The Fuel K-Value should now show a new value.
Ú
Note: To calibrate multiple engines repeat the steps above, one engine at a time.
Alternatively, run all engines simultaneously, and divide the Actual amount used by the
number of engines. This assumes reasonably even fuel consumption on all engines.
Ú
Note: The Calibrate option is only available when Set to full is selected, and a Fuel Flow is
connected and set up as a source.
Ú
Note: A maximum of 8 engines is supported using Fuel Flow sensors.
Fuel Level
With the use of a Navico Fluid Level device connected to a suitable tank level sensor, it is
possible to measure the amount of fuel remaining in any equipped tank. The number of
tanks must be set in Vessel Setup dialog, initiated from the Fuel setting options page, to
allow discrete tank assignment of the Fluid Level devices.
Select Device list on the Network page, and view the Device Configuration dialog for each
sensor, and set the Tank location, Fluid type, and Tank size.
For setting up the Instrument bar or a gauge on the Instrument page with Fluid Level device
data, refer to the Operator Manual.
Ú
Note: A maximum of 5 tanks is supported using Fluid Level devices.
Ú
Note: Tank data that is output by a compatible engine gateway can also be displayed,
however tank configuration for such a data source is not possible from this unit.
Wireless settings
Provides configuration and setup options for the wireless functionality.
For further details about wireless setup and connectivity, refer to the Operator Manual.
