SELECTING DATA TO DISPLAY
After the initial readout, it is required to define which values should be displayed on the VL Flex.
Layout: Choose between the single or dual layout by pressing the according preview.
Gauge Type: Select the desired value, that should be visible through the dropdown menu "Gauge Type".
Depending on the selected gauge type, it is possible to define some more parameters. Not all of them are
available for every type.
Number: Select the according instance. The instance describes which of the engines, tanks or sensors is
meant if there is more than one in the system (e.g.: Tank1/Tank2 ...).
(Note that the numerating starts at 1. Some manufacturers will call the first device "instance 0")
Unit: Selection between metric, imperial or nautical measurement units.
Alarm: For some gauge types, the VL Flex can trigger an alarm when a certain threshold is reached. If the
alarm option is enabled through the switch, the level of this threshold can be defined here.
When the dual layout is selected, all these settings are doubled for the second data as well.
CONFIGURE AN ANALOG SENSOR
The VL Flex 52 – NMEA 2000 includes a gateway function. Therefore, the values measured on the analog
inputs will be shared on the NMEA 2000 network.
The gateway function can also be used on sensors without their values being shown on the VL Flex display.
The settings for the data inputs can be found in the tab "Inputs" in the VL Flex Configurator App.
The switches enable or disable the different data inputs. When an input is enabled, the according menus will
be expanded.
Sensor: Defines which sensor is connected to the input.
Number: Selection of the sensor's instance. The instance describes which of the engines, tanks or sensors is
meant if there are more than one available in the system (e.g.: Tank1/Tank2 ...).
Configuration: The sensor's calibration must be entered in the table. For Veratron sensors the curves are
predefined and can be imported to the table by selecting the according calibration from the dropdown
menu "Characteristics".
Pulses: When using the frequency input, the specification of the number of pulses per engine revolution
(for rpm) or the number of pulses per km or mile (for boat speed) depending on the connected signal source
must be entered.
CONFIGURE THE IBS INPUT
When an Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) is connected to the LIN-Bus (Pin 5 - Blue/White), the Input "IBS
Sensor" must be enabled in the "Inputs" tab. For the sensor to work, these parameters must be defined:
