Fuel/Trip Manager - Raymarine LIGHTHOUSE 3 Advanced Operation Instructions

Fuel/trip manager

The fuel/trip manager collects trip data automatically based on distance travelled and provides an
estimate of how much fuel you have remaining based on user inputted fuel refill data.
The Fuel/trip manager can be accessed by selecting Fuel/Trip from the My Data page: Homescreen
> My Data > Fuel/Trip.
1. Estimated fuel remaining
2. Set all tanks full — Select when you have filled up all tanks.
3. Add partial fuel fill — Select to enter a specific volume of fuel during a partial tank fill.
Note: If you enter the wrong amount of fuel this can be corrected by entering a minus value as
a partial fuel fill, this will reduce the total amount of fuel remaining by the amount entered.
4. Trip (Manual) — accumulates data until reset.
5. Trip (Day) — resets automatically when local time passes midnight.
6. Trip (Month) — resets automatically on the 1st day of the month.
7. Trip (Season) — accumulates data until reset.
8. Reset trip — The Trip (Manual) and Trip (Season) logs can be reset by selecting the relevant
Reset Trip button.
Note:
• The Fuel manager estimates the amount of fuel remaining onboard based on logging each time
you fill up, your vessel's total fuel capacity, and how much fuel is burned by your engine(s).
Incorrect entries will affect the fuel calculations which could result in a shortage of fuel.
• The Fuel remaining calculation is an estimate and will be inaccurate if fuel fills are not entered,
entered incorrectly, or if fuel is used by other sources (e.g.: generators).
• Distance to Empty and Time to Empty values are based on estimated fuel remaining calculations
which do not take into account the effects of weather and tide on fuel usage.
• This system is not a substitute for other fuel calculations. You should not rely on the Fuel
manager calculations for accurate voyage planning or in emergency and safety critical situations.
