Just installed twin IFD 440's in a Cirrus (plug and play), will the fuel rings display without any additional hardware changes? 

If not what is needed? If so, how do I enable?

Thanks

Pat

Not yet but we have that on a list to do for a future software upgrade.   The IFD does not look to use the fuel output values of the SIU/DAU unit in your Cirrus - it is only able to take input from dedicated fuel flow/qty systems or FADC units.   That's something we expect to change via the software release so your datablocks can show fuel, your fuel range rings can show up on the map and the FMS fields that show estimated fuel remaining at a flight plan waypoint get populated with data.
