2.9 Fuellox Hardware Migration
2.9 Fuellox V1 to V2 Hardware Migration
This overview details show how to migrate a Fuellox unit on V1 hardware over to the V2 hardware.
Where 240V AC Power is involved an electrican must be engaged to complete this work.
!!! Danger 240V AC systems must be installed by a licensed electrical contractor.
In some cases the entire Fuellox V1 system is low power and the following tasks may be carried our by a person with sufficient DC or Automotive electrical knowledge.
Please be advised that Fuellox systems are covered by a warranty, however where a person damages components due to wiring mistakes replacement parts shall be charged to the customer.

Fuellox V2 Wiring Details V2 Wiring and board details
2.9.1 Main Power
Move the 12V DC supply to the new Fuellox Input.
| V1 Jumper | Description | V2 Jumper |
|---|---|---|
| J8-3 | None | N/A |
| J8-2 | GND / 0V | J9-1 Black |
| J8-1 | +VBAT | J9-2 Red |
2.9.2 Pulse Meter
Pulse meters will either be a Hall Effect (3 wire) or Reed (2 wire).
Just change the wires over to the V2 port as follows:
| V1 Jumper | Description | V2 Jumper |
|---|---|---|
| J5-1* | Meter Power 12V (Hall Effect only) | J18-2 |
| J5-2 | Pulse Signal | J18-3 |
| J5-3 | 0V | J18-4 |
*Note: The meter power is 12V so long as the bard power is 12V. In some cases the board power is 24V.
Caution: In some rare cases the meter must be 12V. Check with your meter to be sure.
This will ensure the meter does not have to support any weight nor take and shock from the hose movement.
2.9.3 EStop
[Confirm this table is correct - Please review existing wiring and test before commissioning a system]
| V1 Jumper | Description | V2 Jumper |
|---|---|---|
| J4-1 | E Stop NO | J11-2 |
| J4-2* | 0V | J11-6 or J11-5 |
| J4-3 | E Stop NC | J11-3 |
| J4-4 | 0V | J11-6 or J11-5 |
In some cases EStops are fitted with additional controls. For instance, the EStop could have extra contacts that then isolate a relau, the main power to the pump or the power between the relay and the pump.
2.9.4 Pump Control
In Fuellox V1 The 12VDC to the pump supply is routed through the Fuellox Relay.
The RHS is the supply. If its not there, then Jumper SK-4 is providing 12V DC low current to the supply side of the Fuellox relay.
The LHS is the switching load. ie When Fuellox authorises a transaction, this output supplies* 12V DC.
| V1 Jumper | Description | V2 Jumper |
|---|---|---|
| J19-1 | Switching Active | J12-4 |
| J19-2 | Pump Relay Supply | Not Required |
| J19-2 | Pump Relay GND | J12-3 |
*Note: Supply may be to a pump, relay or contact.
If you have an extra relay supplied, ie FLX-V2-MINI-R then see the drawings and image here.
2.9.5 Nozzle Switch
Relocate the Nozzle Switch connections as follows:
| V1 Jumper | Description | V2 Jumper |
|---|---|---|
| J6-1 | Nozzle Supply | J11-1 |
| J6-2 | 0V | J11-6 or J11-5 |
2.9.6 Level Transponder
Relocate the level probe connections as follows:
| V1 Jumper | Description | V2 Jumper |
|---|---|---|
| J17-1 | Level Supply | J17-1 |
| J17-2 | 4-20mA signal | J17-2 |
Also note there are some new requirements in Fuellox V2 for level. A new strapping table is required. Please call the help desk and they can activate the new level table for you.
2.9.6.1 Updated Level Table Requirements
Once the wiring is complete and the system is operational, preapre the following information for the helpdesk team.
- Current Tank level in mm
- Current Tank level in Litres
- Tank maximum liquid height - Safe Fill from the dip stick
- Measure 3-5 points on the dip stick and note down the Level in Litres vs the level in mm
Be sure to enable the Fuellox Level for this hardware unit.
Contact the helpdesk team with the new information, and they will prepare the required backend updates.
2.9.7 Update Fuellox V2 Hardware Configuration
You need to be in proximity to the Fuellox V2, and have the unit powered to complete this step.
In the Fuellox App:
| Step | Description | Check |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Login to the app and press Sync | □ |
| 2 | Resellers Only If you can access > 1 Org, select your Tenant/Org from the menu first | □ |
| 3 | Click Hamburger Menu | □ |
| 4 | Manage Devices (you may need additional permissions in the app for this) | □ |
| 5 | Click the BLE switch next to the search, and your device should be listed | □ |
| 6 | Tap the new Fuellox V2 device in the list | □ |
| 7 | Click Retry if the connection is not successful | □ |
| 8 | Go to the Config section | □ |
| 9 | Scroll down through the config | □ |
| 10 | Turn on the switching requirements you have | □ |
| 11 | Set the Pre and Post flow timers | □ |
| For Systems with a level unit only | ||
| 12 | Turn on the Level Unit | □ |
| 13 | Enter the Max mm | □ |
| 14 | Enter the Max 4-20mA (17 for a 2.7m high tank) | □ |
| For all systems: | □ | |
| 15 | Click Save. Wait for the 2x green notifications | □ |
| 16 | Power off the Fuellox V2 | □ |
| 17 | Wait 2-3 mins. Be sure the power supply has fully dischaarged | □ |
| 18 | Power on the unit | □ |

| 24 | Confirm with the help desk the migration is completed and succesful. | □ |
| If installed: | □ | |
| 25 | Confirm the tank level is reported | □ |
| 26 | Verify with the help desk the Level is reporting and the strapping table has worked | □ |
2.9.6.1 Ongoing Level Measurement
From time to time, please check the tank level reported by Fuellox Vs the dip stick. If you measurements are out, advise the help desk of a new calibration point. Advice the heght in mm and the tank level volume.
Having accurate samples from the tanks hihg point and low points will dramitically improve the quality of the tank level reporting.
Verifying a few dips before and after the next 2-3 deliveries will ensure ongoing consistent performance from the system.
