Claim 17:
18. An electronic gauge assembly operatively connectable to a liquid level sensor probe associated with a tank for measuring at least one of a liquid level and a liquid volume condition within the tank, the electronic gauge assembly comprising:
a circular mounting base for connection to the tank;
a circular housing adapted for connection to the circular mounting base, the circular housing having a rear wall with a first circular depression portion formed therein coaxial with the generally circular mounting base;
a main PCB located in the circular housing;
a sensor PCB spaced from the main PCB, the sensor PCB being retained in the first depression portion by at least one retainer;
a first electronic display connected to the a top side of the main PCB for displaying the at least one of a liquid level and a liquid volume condition within the tank;
a first electronic sensor mounted on the sensor PCB and being couplable to the liquid level sensor probe such that a change in the liquid level sensor probe due to a change in liquid level causes a proportional change in an electronic state of the first electronic sensor;
a processor connected to the main PCB in communication with the first electronic sensor for determining the at least one of a liquid level and a liquid volume condition within the tank based on the change in electronic state of the first electronic sensor;
a circular front bezel connected to the circular housing to thereby retain the main PCB and the first electronic display therebetween; and
a first transceiver associated with the processor and located on a bottom side of the main PCB, the first transceiver adapted for transmitting information associated with the tank to a remote device operable by a user, and for receiving information from the remote device for controlling display information on the first electronic display, wherein said received information;
wherein said processor is responsive to receipt of tank geometry and strapping data from a remote device via said first transceiver for generating parameter-compensated liquid levels of said tank.
