iv Notes.
1 Section 1: Introduction Thank you for buying the Lowrance ® LMF-200. Y our un it is a hi gh - quality, multi-function, digital gauge designed to work with a LowranceNET ™ network. This is the NMEA 2000 ® networking system developed by Lowr ance Electronics.
2 LowranceNET teams up the powe rful NMEA 2000 network standard with a fast-growing, cutting-edge fa mily of Lowrance Electronic Probe Sensors. At press time, the product line includes the EP-10 Fuel .
3 Section 2: Installation Preparation When installed, the gauge will cover an area on the dash 2-3/8" (60.3 mm) in diameter. To mount the unit, first make sure there is at least 2- 3/4" (70 mm) from the front of the dash to any obstruction behind the dash.
4 The buzzer installation requires two cable ties and two wire nuts or other wire connectors. If you need to extend any of the buzzer or dash light wires, use a minimum of 24 gauge wire and wire connectors of your choice. Wire nuts or electrical tape are required to cap any unused bare wires.
5 Insert gauge through the hole in the front side of the dash (left). Slide the rubber gasket over the cables, followe d by the plastic collar (right). Slide the gasket forward so it is fl ush with the back of the dash, then screw on the mounting collar, turnin g it until it is snug against the gasket and the back of the dash.
6 LMF-200 cable connections. IMPORTANT: The latest version of the LMF- 200 (below) has a different color scheme for dash light and buzzer wires than those shown in the diagram above.
7 backlights to come on when the dashboard lights are turned on. The gauge connected to the dashboard lights will send a signal across the network, causing the other gauges to turn on their backlights. Caution: The bare ends on any unused wires could cause an electrical short if left exposed.
8 Adding a Network Node You can add a node to any existing connection, anywhere along the network backbone. This connection co uld be between a T connector and a terminator, between two T connectors, between a T connector and a backbone extension cable or between two extension cables.
9 NOTE: If you add an EP-10 Fuel Flow, EP-15 Fluid Level, EP-45 Water Pressure or EP-50 Storage Device sensor to the network, you must go through Boat Setup so the en gine-tank configuration will be consistent among the sensors in the LowranceNet. Follow the Boat Setup procedure in Section 3: Operation.
10 Understanding this Manual Most instructions in the manual are listed as numbered steps. Keypad c o m m a n d s a p p e a r a s b o l d f a c e t y p e , m a k i n g i t e a s y t o s k i m t h r o u g h instructions and pick out what menu command to use.

You can begin calibration at any point in the 3-point process, but we recommend starting calibration with an empty tank. In a 3-point calibration, you will set three points, one each for empty, half and full levels.
53 NOTE: You DO NOT have to calibrate all five points to complete the calibration and you can calibrate the points (Empty Level, 1 Quarter Level, Half Level, 3 Quar ter Level and Full Level) in any order you wish. Remember: Points that are not calibrated will not be as accurate as points that have been calibrated.

If the amount of fuel you added to the tank and the fuel used figure are off by more than 3 percent, we recommend the engine interface be calibrated.
56 6. Compare the amount of fuel you added when you filled up the tank with to the Fuel Used figure in the LMF-200. If the difference between these two numbers is greater than 3 percent, you need to recalibrate the unit. 7. Press MENU , use the UP and DOWN k e y s t o s e l e c t S YSTEM S ETUP and press MENU .
57 3. Use the UP and DOWN keys to input the amount of fuel you added to the tank and press MENU . You will be directed to the main display.
