Abstract

Methods and systems for displaying a level of a liquid contained in a tank are disclosed, wherein the level of the liquid is measured using a sensing device. An embodiment of a system includes a user interface, a processor, and a display. The user interface allows a plurality of parameters, including a lower display level and an upper display level, to be modified. The processor communicates with the sensing device and the user interface to scale the level in dependence upon the lower display level and the upper display level. The display communicates with the processor to graphically display the level of the liquid scaled in dependence upon the lower display level and the upper display level.
