Mode “User Entry” Note
MODE allows the operator to select which Level Management mode to use for a particular group.
The choices are NONE, LEVELING, and PRIORITY:
• Selecting NONE sets NO level management mode for the Group.
(no Reserve to enter) This is used for Stand Alone Groups.
• Selecting the LEVELING mode seeks to maintain an equal level of fuel in each tank by placing pump
controllers associated with the tank containing the most amount of fuel to a high priority.
This will force the pump with the highest level of fule to activate when the dispenser switch is activated.
(no Reserve to enter)
• Selecting the PRIORITY option enables a mode that seeks to drain one tank before the other
tank(s). Only when the PRIORITY mode is selected will the RESERVE menu appear.
Reserve Configuration Note
RESERVE is set after choosing the PRIORITY MODE. This entry sets the reserve level of fuel remaining
in the tank. The programming defines this percentage as an ‘empty’ tank and is programmed in % full.
For example, setting the Reserve to 20% means, when the tank is 20% full it is considered ‘empty’.
This will trigger two events; the ATG will command a different pump to start pumping fuel from a different
tank and disables the pump in the tank that has reached its Reserve. This helps to prevent the faults Dry
Run and Pump in Water.
Mode Type and Reserve Note
The STND ALON “type” designates the GROUP as a Stand Alone Group without any Master/Slave
associations. The group consists of only one pump and one controller. The menus MODE and RESERVE
are not enabled for Stand Alone TYPE. This completes Setup Programming for this type.
The MAST SLAV “type” designates the GROUP as a Master/Slave configuration. The group consists of
more than one pump controller. This “type” is further defined by the kind of Level Management “mode” -
either Leveling or Priority. If Priority is selected, the user is required to enter a value for RESERVE.
