Default Adjusting Fuel Computer on Skyview

Can someone tell me how to find the spot on my Skyview to adjust the fuel computer. My computer is running about 10% higher fuel than I actually use, so will read 0 gallons when I have 2 left. (Now, I don't usually run that low, was circling the airport while figuring out a fuel leak issue.)

I've tried following the Skyview installation manual steps to adjust it but I'm not seeing the same screens they referred to. I've read the threads about how you monitor actual fuel use and do the math to put in the right number, thought I'd just try a 5% adjustment if I could just get to the right spot in the menu.

Default

In settings scroll to the bottom for hardware calibration, then engine then fuel flow. To adjust, increase the k factor by the 5% or 10%. The k factor is the number of pulses per gallon. If it is reading more fuel flow than actual, increase the number.
