[CA] [CA11] Issues with Element 12 HV

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum George,

Unlike Raymarine's MFDs running LightHouse 3 and LightHouse II software, Element displays do not currently support a Fuel Manager feature. Within systems supporting Raymarine's Fuel Manager feature, the MFD is capable of calculating fuel usage to include estimated fuel remaining, fuel usage (season and trip). Within Element display, Fuel usage data (if available) is simply repeated from the engine system which has been interfaced to the MFD. Engine manufacturer displays / gauges may or may not have the ability to monitor and configure fuel usage and to support trip fuel usage PGNs (127496 and 127497). Should your engine manufacturer's displays / gauges support fuel usage data items, then it would be recommended that they be displayed on those displays / gauges and then compared to the corresponding data items within the Element display.
