firmware rev 1.5 or higher. Refer to page 7 

Updating Console Firmware. 

Included with Printer:

•   Plastic Bezel
•   Thermal Printer on PCB (Printed Circuit Board)
•   Hardware includes:

•  (2) stand-offs
•  Mounting screws 

(Quantity, size and  

use shown in chart)

Note:  Use only the

Installation Procedure

Disconnect power before opening the

console cover.

1.  Open the Tank Gauge front door.
2.  Remove the front door’s inside cover plate by

the two #10 self-tapping screws supplied Start the 

screws in the lower two mounting holes. Do not 

tighten screws all the way at this time. These screws 

will be tightened after installing the printer assembly.
