Hourglass symbol flashing on my hour meter?

[mikeb33]

Driving my boat yesterday and I noticed something flashing on the LCD hour meter. It looks like an hourglass.
Anybody know what this means?
2020 SSRXP with F150.

It means that the engine is running and meter is actively counting the hours .

Thread 'flashing icon on LCD hour-meter'

Apr 30, 2017

Hi, just joined and bought a 2006 2275RL.  It is a Tri-Toon with Strakes and 150 HP Yamaha.  I am still figuring out everything on the boat.  My tachometer has a LCD hour-meter on it.  When the engine is running, an icon shaped like an hourglass? or a square figure eight? flashes at me.  What is it trying to tell me?  HELP!

If you key turn ACC only it should be solid, then when engine is cranked and running it will start flashing. At least that's how I read it should function. It's not a maintenance minder unless you have the ability to reset it, that would drive me crazy.
