Setting The Tanks - Mercury MercMonitor Manual

IMPORTANT: To achieve accurate trim full up calibration, this
must be performed on the water while the vessel is running at
cruising speed. While at cruising speed, trim up to the maximum
trim angle before the vessel begins to porpoise, then press the
"+" button.

Setting the Tanks

There are two tanks available for each power package installed
on the vessel. Tank number "1" can be designated as not
installed ("Not inst") or fuel. When "Not inst" is selected, the
options for setting the tank capacity and the calibration cannot be
edited. The maximum fuel capacity is 2271 liter (600 US gal).
The second tank can be designated as not installed ("Not inst"),
water, fuel, or waste on 4‑stroke engines and will automatically
default to oil if the gauge is installed on a vessel with a 2‑stroke
engine.
Two different methods are available to calibrate the tanks. For
linear shaped fuel tanks, choose "Default Calibration." "Default
Calibration" assumes the tank is uniformly shaped and that each
quarter of the tank holds a quarter of its total capacity. Water and
waste tanks are typical to this linear shape tank and are
automatically set to the "Default Calibration." For irregularly
shaped fuel tanks, choose "Add Fuel Method." Fuel must be
added to the tank for each quarter of the capacity when using
this method. The "Add Fuel Method" should be performed with
the vessel in the water for an accurate representation of the tank
capacity.
