Fuel settings The fuel utility monitors a vessel's fuel consumption. This information is totaled to indicate trip and seasonal fuel usage, and is used to calculate fuel economy for display on instrument pages and the data bar. To use the utility, a Navico Fuel Flow sensor, or a NMEA 2000 engine adaptor cable/gateway with Navico Fuel Data Storage device must be fitted to the vessel. The Navico Fuel Flow sensor, does not require the use of a separate Fuel Storage device. Refer to the engine manufacturer or dealer for information on whether or not your engine provides a data output, and what adaptor is available to connect to NMEA 2000. Once the physical connection is made, ensure source selection is completed. Multiple engine installations using Fuel Flow sensors, or Fuel Data Storage devices, require setup of related engine location in the Device list. For general source selection information, refer to "Network settings" on page 48. Vessel setup The Vessel setup dialog must be used to select the number of engines, the number of tanks and vessel's total fuel capacity across all tanks. Fuel flow configuration After the number of engines is set, it is required to set which fuel flow sensor is connected to which engine.
