1.6.4 Connect Relay to control the Car Oil/Power. ( port 1/2)
1.6.5 Connect to the fuel sensor to detect the fuel.(port 3)
Our AVL can get the voltage by the AD collection and according to the voltage
change to know the fuel level in the tank. because the fuel tank in different car is
different .so you need to find out the different relation between the voltage
and fuel .our AVL can collect the voltage from 0-18V.so that mean if you want

TZ-AVL11 User Guide
V1.0.6 Nov 28 ,2016
to know the fuel leave in the fuel tank, so you should work out the coordinate
relation between voltage and fuel in your server. when the GPRS data come
to the server, the server work out fuel level in the tank by analyze the GPRS
data.
