Boat Setup
When the LMF-400 powers up for the first time, the screen will show
the
Boat Setup menu. You will not be able to proceed without
completing Boat Setup, which requires you to program into the unit the
number of engines and gas tanks on your vessel. Boat Setup will only
appear again if you reset Engine/Tank configuration, add certain EP
sensors or if configuration is lost.
To complete Boat Setup:
1. With Boat Setup highlighted, press ENTER . A menu will appear,
allowing you to choose the number of engines and fuel tanks on your
vessel. The Boat Setup menu options are: 1 Eng/1 Tank, 1 Eng/2 Tank,
2 Eng/1 Tank, 2 Eng/2 Tanks, 3 Eng/1 Tank or
3 Eng/3 Tanks.
2. Choose the option that applies to your vessel and press ENTER . After
setting the engine/tank configuration, you will need to enter the size of
each tank via the Set Tank Size menu. It will appear with up to three
options, depending on the number of tanks you chose during Boat
Setup. The options are: Port Tank, Stbd Tank and Cen Tank.
3. Select the tank you want to set up and press
ENTER . That will launch
the Setting Tank Size window. If you selected one tank during Boat
Setup, you will be taken directly to the Setting Tank Size Window.
