Conguring the NMEA 2000 Tank Capacity
You can indicate the capacity of the uid tank that the GFL 10 adapter is associated with.
1. From the NMEA 2000 Devices list, select the GFL 10 device.
2. Select an option:
For most Garmin chartplotters, select Review > N2K Tank Capacity.
For other Garmin marine devices, select Cong > N2K Tank Capacity.
3. Select the tank capacity.
4. Select Done.
Calibrating the Fluid Level
To use the GFL 10 adapter, you must calibrate the uid level of the tank that the adapter is
associated with, using a minimum of two calibration points. The greater the number of uid
calibration points, the greater the accuracy of the reading on the uid-level gauge.
1. Turn the boat ignition key to the On position (not Start).
2. From the NMEA 2000 Devices list, select the GFL 10 device.
3. Select an option:
For most Garmin chartplotters, select Review > Level Calibration > Add Calibration
Point.
For other Garmin marine devices, select Cong > Level Calibration > Add Calibration
Point.

Troubleshooting the Tank Number
If multiple GFL 10 adapters are assigned to the same NMEA 2000 uid type, each adapter is
assigned a unique tank number automatically. If the “Invalid NMEA 2000 tank conguration”
error message appears, you must assign a unique tank number to each adapter.
For example, if two adapters are assigned the NMEA 2000 uid type value of Live Well and the
error message appears, you must assign each adapter a unique tank number.
1. From the NMEA 2000 Devices list, select the GFL 10 device.
2. Select an option:
For most Garmin chartplotters, select Review > Tank Number.
For other Garmin marine devices, select Cong > Tank Number.
3. Select a tank number.
4. Select OK.
