[CA11] incorrect fuel level on i70 - CoastalMarine - 08-10-18 11:21 AM

On this vessel we have two i70 displays and two eS9x MFD's installed. The fuel tank level is provided by a Maretron TLA (tank level adapter), which is the only tank level transducer in the boat. The fuel level gauges displayed on both MFD's and one of the i70's reads correctly, however one i70 reads 0% (empty). Both i70's are V3.11. I checked Data Sources, but the i70 does not list a category for fuel, tanks, or engine data.


Photos attached.

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum CoastalMarine,

The i70/i70S MFIDs are designed to support displaying tank levels for up to five tanks. Please verify that the problematic i70 has been configured to display the tank level of Fuel Tank 1. Also, if the vessel only has one tank, it is recommended that the user preference be configured to specify that the system features only one tank.

Thanks Chuck. The boat is already configured for one tank, and the i70 display is configured for fuel 1. Today, however, after cycling the DC power to the boat off/on, the i70 now correctly reads the fuel level. Thank you for your assistance.

You're welcome.
