Fuel Level Sensor
A Fuel Level Sensor can be used with your Elite ECU for datalogging and for sending data to a dash display.

Wiring Tab
Connections
Fuel Level Input
Select an appropriate input to use for the Fuel Level Sensor. An AVI (Analogue Voltage Input) should be used.
Connection Type
AVI
An AVI (Analogue Voltage Input) is suggested.
Pull up
Enables a 1k pull up resistor to 5V.
Typically the pull up should be enabled with any two-wire temperature sensor, and disabled for sensors with their own voltage supply. If the sensor is being shared with another ECU, such as with a piggyback installation with an OEM ECU, then the other ECU will generally include a necessary pull up and this setting should be set to Disabled.
SPI
An SPI (Synchronised Pulsed Input) can be used where there are no available AVIs.
Sensor Type
Set to Hall Effect for all analogue inputs
Pull up
Enables a weak 10k pull up resistor to 5V.
Typically the pull up should be enabled with any two-wire temperature sensor, and disabled for sensors with their own voltage supply. If the sensor is being shared with another ECU, such as with a piggyback installation with an OEM ECU, then the other ECU will generally include a necessary pull up and this setting should be set to Disabled.
Calibration Tab
This allows calibrations for a Fuel Level Sensor to be loaded or saved.
Display Tab
Warning Minimum
When the Fuel Level reads below this amount, any Fuel Level items on the ESP software will flash Red as a warning of low fuel level.
Display Maximum
Sets the maximum amount of fuel level that can be entered into the system. It also scales any ESP gauges using this channel to match this amount.
Diagnostics Tab
The settings in this tab allow limits to the set for the detection of fault conditions related to the wiring of the Fuel Level Sensor.
Raw Min
When enabled, this allows for the error code P0462 to be set when the voltage is below the set amount. This is used to detect a short or disconnection with the wiring. If the Engine Protection function is active a DTC Severity level can be selected for this condition if desired. (Default = Disabled)
Raw Max
When enabled, this allows for the error code P0463 to be set when the voltage is above the set amount. This is used to detect a short or disconnection with the wiring. If the Engine Protection function is active a DTC Severity level can be selected for this condition if desired. (Default = Disabled)
