I am running an M800 with SDL. I have set up my dash logger under Functions/Logging/Fuel Used (Raw) at once/sec. After I finish a session I can selected Fuel Used (Raw) in i2 Standard and I have data but the data does not make logical sense. Can I use Fuel Used (Raw) to determine how much fuel was used during a session? IF so what do I need to do?

Also, under Calculations/Fuel Prediction I would like to use this feature during the race to know how much fuel is left or used, with the ultimate goal of having the current fuel reading, which I have on the dash up in the right hand corner, just past the RPM band, flash when I am equal to or lower than 1.0 U.S. Gal.

Can you give me some direction?

I have mine set to let me know when there's 20L remaining then it updates every xx minutes then flashes another warning at 5 litres.

The files are in the Laptop I'll grab one later on and post it up if that will help?

IJ,
I look forward to hearing back from you as soon as possible.

Here ya go Brinkley, keep in mind this is just how I did it there may be a better/more correct way but this works for me and is accurate to +- .5 litre on a 115L tank.

I see how you get the alarms, which I've developed and will test.
However, I don't know how you get "fuel remaining" under Configuration Summary. I've gone to Channels and looked for Fuel Remaining and it's not there. Any suggestions?

Calculations>Fuel Prediction>Fuel Used (Raw) should do it!

The stock M800 Data set transmits the RAW value just tick it in comms for the SDL to read it, you can adjust the Fuel Used Cal in the M800 to fine tune for actual measured usage.

From memory Logging is different to the RAW data transmitted in that the CAN data is live.
