I have the GRT EFIS and EIS and can’t seem to brake the code on wiring the fuel level wiring. As luck would have it, all the folks are at Oshkosh and not available for questions.
I suspect that I need to use the 4.8V source wire but I can’t find how to employ it in the instructions. Does it just get tied to the wire going the tank level sensor?
Also, when I ran the engine, my RPM showed 0. I have the signal wire tied to the digital RPM signal from the Lightspeed output and the EIS Tach is set to ‘0’ for 6 cyl Lycoming.
If anyone has any experience with this I’d sure appreciate any and all guidance.

Marcus,
Sorry I couldn't reply sooner. Here's a file that you might want:
http://www.myrv10.com/files/GRT/GRT_Probes_Install.tif
It's a multi-page .tif and shows how to hook up most of the
special probes, including that 4.8 V. source.
Not sure what you might have going on the RPM readout though. I
have mine directly connected to the Lightspeed from the input
to the EIS 6000. Make sure Tack P/R is 3. Giving a Zero
readout makes me wonder if there's not a mis-wiring issue
though, or perhaps if you're grounding the keyswitch option
wire on the Lightspeed and it's not firing. I only took the
tach input from the lightspeed and just guess and check
by ear on the mag side. So when I turn the key to turn off
the lightspeed, my RPM readout drops to zero. You can hear
when going to ground the mag that the lightspeed idles it
at a higher RPM. The most important thing is that the
engine sounds like it's not losing lots of RPM and runs
smooth on the mag, so I didn't care to do the gymnastics
of hooking it to both.
Just FYI, here's an old (now unverified recently) list of the
settings in my EIS6000. You may find it handy.
