You configure or program a TLM100 tank type using a display product such as the Maretron

3.2 Configuring Tank Number

As shipped from the factory, the TLM100 transmits the Tank Number as "0". The TLM100
supports up to sixteen tanks (0 through 15) for a given type of tank, which means you can monitor
up to 16 separate fuel tanks or 16 separate fresh water tanks. The TLM100 is configured or
programmed by choosing a TLM100 tank number using a display product such as the Maretron
DSM250 or Maretron N2KAnalyzer software. Refer to the user's manual of the particular product
that will be used for configuring the TLM100 as these manuals provide detailed instruction on

3.3 Configuring Tank Capacity

In addition to indicating the fluid level within a tank, the TLM100 also has the ability to be
configured or programmed with the attached tank's capacity. This way, you will be able to view
the tank's capacity as well as the amount of liquid remaining anywhere on the vessel where
there is an NMEA 2000
tank capacity using a display product such as the Maretron DSM250 or Maretron N2KAnalyzer
software. Refer to the user's manual of the particular product that will be used for configuring the
