8.1 Fuel manager overview
The fuel manager feature displays essential data about the fuel of your vessel.
Fuel manager estimates the amount of fuel onboard, based on you logging each time you fill up,
the total fuel capacity, and how much fuel is burned by the engine(s). This data is used to estimate
the distance and time until fuel depletion. Additionally, fuel manager can display engine fuel flow
rate and economy.
Important:
• To ensure accurate calculations you must record all fuel you add to your fuel tanks using either
the
Set all tanks full
or
Add partial fill
settings.
• This system is not a substitute for other fuel calculations. You should not rely on the Fuel
manager calculations for accurate voyage planning or in emergency and safety critical situations.
• Fuel estimates are specific to each display.
The Fuel manager requires the following NMEA 2000 PGNs to be available on your system:
• Fuel Used (PGN 127497), or
• Fuel flow rate (PGN 127489).
.
