System Configuration

Once the Fuellox hardware is installed, it must be configured through the Fuellox App. This section walks you through configuration options, managing the devices, and how to applying the configuration device settings to the hardware.

Configuration Options

Timers

Feature	Description	Default Value	unit
Pre Flow Timeout	Time to start flow once pump starts	20	sec
Post Flow Timeout	Time to restart flow once pump stops	40	sec
Residuals Timer	Time to detect flow after transaction ends	3000	milli sec
BT Reconnect Timer	Time to reconnect BT if connection is broken	3000	milli sec
Max Pump Run Timer	MAx time for pump active. Creates a pump On/Off duty cycle	0 [Disabled]; 10 = 10 on 10 off	Min

IO Options

Feature	Description	Default Value	unit
Nozzle Switch	Enable Nozzle switch input	False	Boolean
E-Stop (Open)	Normally Open Emergency Stop (Estop_) installed	False	Boolean
E-Stop (Close)	Normally Closed Emergency Stop installed	False	Boolean
Override	Not Applicable - Future feature	False	Boolean

Level Options

Feature	Description	Default Value	unit
Level Installed	Enables level sensor	False	Boolean
Max Level	Max tank height (usually Safe Fill)	3000	mm max
Max Analogue	Max analog value (20mA typically)	20	mA max

K-Factor

Feature	Description	Default Value	unit
Pulse Meter K-Factor	Pulses per litre for the Pulse Meter Model ; Check your meter instructions.	K-24 = 33, OM-025 = 106.841	pulses/L

Note

Some meters may arrive with a calibration certificate. If not, manual calibration may be required.

Other

Feature	Description	Default Value	unit
Illegal Vol	Volume to detect & log from non authorised pulses; acts as a noise filter if needed	2000	mL
Bypass	Reserved for future functionality	False	Boolean
Demo Mode	Virtual pulse input. Simulates a pump running. Used for testing and demos	0 = Off 100 = on	pulse per second

Note

All units should be calibrated by an authorised service technician if not pre-calibrated.

Discuss Settings with Help Desk

If you’re unsure about any configuration option, consult the Fuellox Help Desk. They can guide you through the most suitable settings for your use case.

Default Configuration Notice

Most Fuellox units are shipped with default configuration already applied. In many cases, no changes are needed unless your installation has special requirements.

Bluetooth Requirement for Configuration

You must be within Bluetooth range of the Fuellox device to apply or update configuration settings. This ensures real-time communication between the app and the hardware.

Bluetooth Proximity

Bluetooth Proximity Required Configuration changes cannot be applied unless your device is physically near the Fuellox hardware. Ensure your phone or tablet is close enough before proceeding.

Managing the Devices

Not every user has access to manage or configure a Fuellox device. Access to these settings is typically reserved for:

• Installers
• Resellers
• Certified service agents

From time to time, customers may need to make configuration changes—such as modifying a timer, enabling a nozzle switch, or adding an E-Stop input.

1. Open the Fuellox App. Tap the Menu (☰) icon in the top-right corner. Select Manage Devices.

   Note

   Access is restricted to prevent unintended system misconfiguration.

   

2. It will open the Manage Devices page. Toggle the Bluetooth switch to discover nearby devices.

   Tap your device to connect and open the Config page. The app will need to establish a connection with the actual device.

   Pair Request

   If you see a prompt to pair, make sure to accept the request to complete the connection.

   

3. If the connection fails, tap TRY AGAIN button to try again.

   

4. Once connected, the unit’s details will be displayed.

   

Configuring Device Setting Options

1. Click the CONFIG Tab to access the configuration options.

   Enter the system timeout values or accept the default settings. Then scroll down to continue.

   

2. Apply the Installation (I/O) Toggles.

   Set the nozzle switch and E-Stops according to the systems that are installed and properly wired.

   

3. Apply Level Attributes.

   Enable the Level switch, and ensure you’re using an approved level instrument (e.g., IOTIQ FLX-LVL-JPS3).

   If you’re unsure about any of the other settings, contact the Help Desk—they can provide recommendations to help get the system operational.

   Note

   To enable the Level System functionality, make sure to select or upgrade to the ‘FLEET’ service.

   

4. Enter the K-Factor if it has not already been applied to the device.

   If you’re using the default value provided in your pulse meter’s instructions, you will still need to perform a proper calibration to ensure accuracy.

   Some meters, such as Flomec OM-025 variants and Macnaught MX series, come with a calibration certificate. These high-end meters often provide better value, as they can eliminate the need for a separate calibration service—making them more cost-effective than calibrating low-cost meters manually.

   

5. Enter the Optional (Other) Settings In most cases, these settings do not need to be changed. The default values are suitable for 99% of use cases.

   

6. Demo Mode is useful when configuring a system before wiring is complete.

   To enable it:

   • Enter a value into the Demo Mode field (e.g., pulses per second).

   • This will simulate a virtual pulse meter.

   When the pump starts and the nozzle is lifted, virtual pulses will begin, simulating a fuel dispense. The data is sent to the Fuellox Cloud just like a real transaction.

   Note

   Demo transactions can be removed later. Simply contact the Help Desk, and they can schedule the deletion.

   

7. Click SAVE button to apply the updated configuration to both the device and the Fuellox Cloud. After saving the configuration the screen will switch to the DETAILS tab.

   

8. After applying the changes, the device must be powered off and restarted. A power cycle is essential to activate the new configuration.

   Failure to reset the device may result in it continuing to operate with the previous settings.

   Caution

   The device must be power cycled after changes are applied.

Calibration

For instructions on how to begin the calibration process, refer to the Calibration guide.
