Lowrance electronic LMF-200 manual Refill Tank, To calibrate an EP-10 Fuel Flow

Refill Tank

You must use the Refill Tank command every time you fill up and every time you calibrate a fuel flow to make sure the fuel flow reads the tank as full. For more information on the Refill Tank function see page 27.

To calibrate an EP-10 Fuel Flow:

Add the Fuel Manager page or any of the digital gauge pages to the page screen rotation, then customize the selected page with Fuel Used data. To see instructions on how to Add Pages and Customize Pages, refer to the Operation Section.

NOTE:

When following the steps below, run only ONE engine — the engine attached to the fuel flow. That is the only way to accurately calculate how much fuel passed through the fuel flow. Make sure the Fuel Remaining Source has been set to Fuel Flow.

1.Fill up the fuel tank connected to the EP-10 Fuel Flow you want to calibrate. Press MENU, use the UP and DOWN keys to select SYSTEM SETUP and press MENU.

2.Highlight FUEL MNGR and press MENU. Select REFILL T. and press MENU. The Select Tank menu will open with up to three options: Port, Cen (Center) and Stbd (Starboard).

3.Select the tank you refilled and press MENU. The Recalibration (ReCal?) menu will appear with two options: Yes and No. Select NO and press MENU. The following message will appear: Hit Menu if Tank filled up.

4.Press MENU, which will direct you to the main display. Make sure the Fuel Management page has been added to the main display and that the page has been customized to show USD (Fuel Used). If the Fuel Management page is not displayed or if it is not customized to display USD (Fuel Used, refer to the Add Pages and Customizing Pages segments in the Operation section.

5.Take your boat out, but only use ONE engine — the engine connected to the fuel flow. Burn at least 5 gallons of fuel, then fill up the tank again, noting how much fuel was added to the tank. Check the Fuel Management page for the fuel used figure calculated by the EP-10 Fuel Flow.

6.Compare the amount of fuel you added when you filled up the tank with the EP-10 Fuel Used figure. If the difference between these two numbers is greater than 3 percent, you need to recalibrate the unit.
