Tank Gauging Troubleshooting
To check that the tank gauging unit is communicating with the FMS board, look at the following LEDs:

Main Menu Options
Option #6 TANKS
Most tank gauging is set up on Port 4 Channel 2. The exception is for units controlling Gilbarco pumps.
If the green Tx LED is not flashing, check the settings in the FMS board.
If the red Rx LED is not flashing, check the settings in the tank gauge unit.
If all settings are correct, check for a cable fault by shorting the Rx and Tx wires together at the tank gauge end. The LEDs should flash together. If not, there is a break in the cable.
The wiring of the tank gauging cable may change for different models. If you are changing tank gauge units, you may need to swap the Tx and Rx wires to get it to work.
