LC Fueling Systems Overview
LC Fueling Systems (Delivery, EZConnect, FlightConnect) are automated data acquisition and management systems
designed for specic fueling applications. They acquire metrological and transaction data on fueling vehicles and
transmit the data to the ofce computers.
LC FUELING SYSTEMS - INTRODUCTION
LC Fueling System Components
METERING SYSTEM
Typically mounted to the back or side of a delivery
vehicle, the metering system accurately measures,
stops and starts the ow, and preserves the purity of
the metered product. A Liquid Controls metering system
can include the meter, LCR electronic register, strainer,
ETVC (temperature compensation) probe, air eliminator,
and control valve.

Main functions of an LC Fueling System include:
• Delivery and transaction data acquisition
• Database management
• Communication conguration and management
• Delivery and transaction data transfer
LC FUELING SOFTWARE
Delivery, EZConnect, FlightConnect Fueling System
software can run on a DMS in-cab computer, in
conjunction with a LectroCount LCR-II electronic register.
The DMS is an in-cab computer with a heavy-duty lap
pad interface. The LCR-II compiles metrological data
during custody transfers and is Weights & Measures
approved. FlightConnect Fueling System software can
also run on a LectroCount LCR 600 electronic register.
The LCR 600 also compiles metrological data during
custody transfers and is Weights & Measures approved.
DATA TRANSFER
LC fueling systems can transfer data via a serial output
to a device such as a Wi adaptor, RF transceiver, or
cell modem. Cell modems enable long distance wireless
data transmissions between LCR 600s and DMSs in
the eld and computers in the ofce. Cell modems and
service contracts must be purchased separately from a
cellular service provider. RF transceivers are designed
for short, line-of-sight wireless transmissions of data.
Serial Wi adaptors can be adapted to an existing Wi
network within the customer framework. Wi range
is typically very limited, but can be used if the Fueling
System uploads and downloads data from a location that
is Wi -enabled on the users network. Liquid Controls
does not provide Wi adaptors, however your distributor
or IT Professional should be able to recommend one. A
USB Flash Memory Device can also be used to transfer
data between the DMS and computers in the ofce.
LC OFFICE SOFTWARE
Delivery Ofce, EZConnect Ofce, and FlightConnect
Ofce all contain a suite of programs for managing LC
fueling system databases and transferring fueling data
les into third-party software.
