Piper Seneca V
When you fly the Piper Seneca V, Headingstar's instruments mark its own speeds and limits: the airspeed arcs and V-speeds, the engine gauges' green arcs and red lines, each engine on its own or both together. Typical published figures; the aircraft's handbook is the reference.

The markings on the engine gauges, for each engine:
Unusable fuel: 1 gal a tank, as the fuel gauges' red line.
In the simulator
The Hub uses this profile when the simulator's aircraft title contains Seneca. The rules are tried in order, so the first that matches wins. To use another profile, set the device's ENGINE in the Hub to it instead of auto.
