Flow filter
Most engines do not draw fuel from the tank at a
steady rate. To give a stable fuel flow reading, the
fishfinder calculates the flow value(s) by taking
several measurements and averaging them. Use
the Flow filter to set the period over which the
fuel flow is averaged.
For twin engine installations, the fuel flow for
each engine must be adjusted separately.
The Flow filter can be set from
0
to
10
seconds.
Use the lowest value which gives a stable flow.
Usually a value of 5 seconds (default setting)
will give a satisfactory result for two-stroke
carburettor engines.
This setting affects the
Fuel flow
and
Fuel
economy
reading on the Fuel display (see
section 5-5. Fuel display) but it does not affect the
Fuel used
reading.
It is recommended that the fuel tank capacity is
measured by draining the fuel tank, then filling it
to capacity. After filling, note the reading from the
fuel dispenser’s gauge.
Note: Beware of air pockets, especially in underfloor
tanks.
Tank full
Select
Tank full
each time the fuel tank(s)

Are you
sure?
select
Yes
. Otherwise, the reading on
the Fuel display (see section 5-5 Fuel Display) and
the Low Fuel Alarm (see section

-6 Setup > Alarms) are meaningless.
Set remaining
Before doing a partial refill of the tank or removing
fuel manually from the tank (for example, by
siphoning it off):
1. Note the
Remaining
reading on the
Fuel display.
2. Note how much fuel is added or removed.
3. Calculate how much fuel is now in the tank.
4. Select
Set remaining
and update
the reading.
It is essential to do this whenever some fuel is
added or removed. Otherwise, the reading on the
Fuel display (see section 5-5 Fuel Display) and
the Low Fuel Alarm (see section
3-6 Setup > Alarms) are meaningless.
