Warnings-Faults And Alarms; Fuel Critical Alarm - Mercury VesselView 7 Manual

Section 5 - Warning Alarms
Warnings—Faults and Alarms
All Mercury warnings—faults and alarms will be shown regardless of what screen is displayed at the time of the alarm. When
an alarm is activated, the system status field will display the alarm text and warning icon. Faults, along with their descriptive
short text, long text, and action text, will be displayed full screen.
• When a fault occurs:
a. The system status field will turn red and show the warning icon and text.
b. Fuel and depth faults will have additional options and will be described in Fuel Critical Alarm and Depth Alarm.
c. A level 3 fault (trim, navigation, ECO, fuel) can be turned off or on by the operator in the Settings menu. By default it
is turned on. If the fault is turned off in the Settings menu, the faults will only show in the system status field.
d. All level 4 (Guardian) faults will always be displayed regardless of what is selected in the Settings menu.
e. If the fault is related to emissions control, the engine icon will be displayed in the system status field.
• When the operator selects a fault in the user‑selected data area:
a. The fault title with the warning icon will be displayed at the top.
b. Short text fault description and the fault location (engine) will be displayed below the title.
c. When more than one fault exists, use the rotary knob to navigate to each fault and press the rotary knob to access
the fault.

Fuel Critical Alarm

The fuel alarm is managed by VesselView, not by the engine ECM/PCM.
• Notification properties and fuel level alarms can be set in the Settings menu.
• If the operator has fuel selected as a constant data field in location #2 (refer to Screen Display Locations and
Descriptions), then the fuel data field will show the warning.
• The warning icon will replace the fuel icon and the data field will change between the black field and a red field.
• If the operator does not have fuel displayed as a constant data field (location #2), but it is active as a warning fault, then the
system status field will display a red field and show FUEL.
