Setting fuel level from previous dash settings?

Can anybody please advise on the following.

I have replaced a failed dash with a new ADU7. On my previous dash I setup the fuel level by starting with an empty tank and filling the tank 1L at a time and taking a voltage reading from the sensor each time. This then allowed me to input the voltages into the software for that dash to be used for the fuel level. Everything worked as expected. The fuel level sensor is a 3ohm to 180ohm range, the voltage supplied was +5v and the pullup resistor is 910ohms(voltage divider circuit). This gives a voltage range of 0.016 to 0.825. This worked perfectly fine with the previous dash.

To save the hassle of having to empty the fuel tank and start all over again, is there any reason why I couldn’t just input my voltage readings as previously recorded? Shouldn’t it work just the same?

Also, I’m struggling a bit with setting the X axis steps. Is there no way to increase the number of steps to something like 20? (when calibrating a sensor)

Is this correct? I have a 38L fuel tank.

Please check ADU manual pages 178-179

Thanks for the reply. I don’t however see the option to ā€˜Modify bins’

Right click I just get the option as shown.

Have you checked option under ā€œX axis propertiesā€?

Yes see below.

Does it matter that I am in ā€˜Offline’ mode?

I’m afraid I don’t understand what you are trying to achieve. Why not just set it the way I showed you in my previous post?

Thanks for the reply.

The level sensor I’m using has an exponential output so the more data points the more accurate it’ll be.
For reference I have 38 data points from filling the tank from empty recording every 1L of fuel.

So just generate the X axis with more bins. Then, you can modify the X axis values easily by double-clicking them.


You can create up to 21 bins.

Alternatively, you can insert or delete cells individually.
