3 Configuring the TLM150
The TLM150 has several configurable parameters, which are shown below including the
default values. If you are not using the default values, then you will need to refer to the
corresponding section for configuring the TLM150 appropriately.
1. Tank Number (Section 3.1) – Default is Tank 0
2. Tank Capacity (Section 3.2) – Default is No Tank Capacity Transmitted
3. Tank Depth or Custom Calibration (Section 3.3) – Default is a 24” (0.61m) deep tank with
rectangular cross-section with full at 2” (5.08cm) distance from the sender and empty at
24” (0.61m) distance from the sender
Note on Tank Type:
As shipped from the factory, the TLM150 transmits the tank type as “Fuel”. Since the TLM150
is designed only for tanks containing gasoline, the tank type is not changeable by the user.
3.1 Configuring Tank Number
As shipped from the factory, the TLM150 transmits the Tank Number as “0”. The TLM150
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. The TLM150 is configured or programmed by choosing a
TLM150 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 TLM150 as these manuals provide detailed instruction on configuration
procedures.
