The number of tanks must be set in 'Vessel Configuration' to allow discrete tank assignment of the Fluid Level devices. Under 'Device list' on the Network page, view the 'Device Configuration' page for each sensor, and set Tank location, Fluid type, and Tank size. Refer to the Operator manual on setting up data overlays or a gauge on the Instruments page using the Fluid Level device data.  Note: A maximum of 5 tanks are supported using Fluid Level devices.  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 via the HDS Gen3 displays. CZone setup In order to communicate with the CZone modules connected to the network, the HDS Gen3 must be assigned a unique CZone Display Dipswitch setting.

HDS Gen3 Installation Manual
Fuel Level
With the use of a Navico Fluid Level sender connected to a
suitable tank level sensor, it is possible to measure the level
of fuel remaining in any equiped tank. The number of tanks
must be set in ‘Vessel Configuration’ to allow discrete tank
assignment of the Fluid Level devices. Under ‘Device list’ on
the Network page, view the ‘Device Configuration’ page for
each sensor, and set Tank location, Fluid type, and Tank size.
Refer to the Operator manual on setting up data overlays or a gauge
on the Instruments page using the Fluid Level device data.
Note:
A maximum of 5 tanks are supported using Fluid Level
devices.
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 via the HDS Gen3 displays.
CZone setup
In order to communicate with the CZone modules connected to
the network, the HDS Gen3 must be assigned a unique CZone
Display Dipswitch setting.
The functionality of the CZone system is determined by the
CZone Config File (.zcf), which is stored on all CZone modules
and supported Lowrance displays, such as the HDS Gen3. The file
is created using the CZone Configuration Tool, a specialised PC
application available from BEP Marine Ltd, and associated CZone
distributors.
The HDS Gen3 system provides a means to load the Config file, as
well as apply updates to module firmware, removing the need to
take a laptop computer aboard the vessel.
