    Welcome.
    How to connect the gas level indicator in the tank to the STAG 200 GoFast installation so that the LED switch shows the gas level. I will add that I have a BRC multivalve in the cylinder and two cables come out of the gas level indicator, i.e. it is a resistance indicator. Gazownik said that it is impossible or it is quite difficult to do.
    Greetings.

    Connect these cables to the LPG controller (white and black wires). Apparently, the gas generator can't connect anything to anything and it's too difficult for him.
    Resistance indicators in general are hopeless due to the accuracy of the measurement.

    Hello. The BRC sensor should be connected to the white and black in the Stag harness. in the program, select the sensor type 90ohm increasing. It should flicker.

    it will flicker I confirm and as far as I remember it is 90 ohm increasing

    Thanks for the info.
    Only now can I get on with it.
    I have a few more questions.
    1. Do I need to disconnect the battery to connect the cables to the STAG harness, and if I disconnect the battery?
    2. Where is the type of indicator set in the program and will the controller settings and data collected by the controller be lost after this change?
    3. After connecting the cables, is it necessary to calibrate the indicator, and if so, how is it done?
    4. The first time I will connect to the gas controller and I will do it with an ordinary RS232 - USB to FTDI adapter. Will it work properly and whether the voltage levels on the connector on the controller side will not kill the adapter. If so, should you use optocouplers to separate the adapter from the driver?

    1. you don't need to
    2nd settings - and fourth window on the left, your data will not be lost
    3.no need, unless it doesn't show correctly, it is described in the warranty booklet
    4. does not kill,

    I still need help.
    As I mentioned earlier, the gas engineers did nothing, the main cable harness going to the plug in the controller is wrapped with tape so that I do not know where these cables are to connect the gas level sensor, I will look again tomorrow. I unwrapped a little tape at the controller plug and there is no black cable and there are 3 white ones.
    Do you have a pin layout in the plug to connect the gas level sensor to the right places?
    I would like to add that currently the LED indicator in the cabin constantly shows the value of the maximum gas level. When measuring the resistance of the gas sensor at the cylinder, I can see that as the amount of gas in the cylinder decreases, the sensor resistance decreases.
    Am I sure to set the sensor type 90? increasing in the controller settings?
    Does the continuous indication of the maximum amount of gas in the cabin mean that nothing is connected to the sensor or is it caused by a different setting of the gas sensor in the controller?
    I will add that only tomorrow I will be able to connect the computer to the controller and run the "Stag 200 GoFast 0.1.5" program.

    look for the white cable in the harness for the solenoid valve, there are three cables, blue, black and a little thinner white and it is for the gas level sensor, and the installation is under warranty?

    The installation is under warranty, but I want to do it myself because it was installed after acquaintance and I do not want to pay extra for connecting the sensor.
    I'll look for this bunch tomorrow.

    The bundle with the cables you describe is shown.
    In that case, should I understand that when connecting the gas sensor, the black cable is the mass of the controller and the white one goes to some voltage divider in the controller?
    So now I look at this photo and your bobikxxl manual and I see that this cable will probably be there, because from what I remember, this cable is connected to the solenoid valve and the cable to the multivalve is connected in parallel to it.
    So, from a different barrel, it is nice in this installation that the cables are grouped in bundles.
    Just like the pin layout in the plug, I noticed that it is listed in the driver connection manual.

    I connected the gas level gauge in the cabin well and it works, I just need to calibrate it.
    I confirm that in the settings I had to set the 90? increasing indicator.
    Thanks for your help on this topic.

    I have a question STAG 200 Go Fast LPG level indicator. There are white and black wires. To which one to apply 5V voltage???

    On none, black ground, white signal from sensor to control unit.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around connecting a BRC multivalve gas level indicator to the STAG 200 GoFast LPG installation. Users share insights on wiring connections, specifically the white and black wires in the STAG harness, and the necessity of setting the sensor type to 90 ohm increasing in the controller settings. It is confirmed that the black wire serves as ground while the white wire is for the signal from the sensor. Users also address concerns about battery disconnection during installation, calibration of the indicator, and the use of an RS232 to USB adapter for connecting to the gas controller. Ultimately, one user successfully connected the gas level gauge and confirmed its functionality.
