  • Pressure can be measured using standard automotive resistive senders (e.g. VDO), Rotax 4-20mA senders as well as 0-5V output pressure senders (e.g. UMA)

  • Temperature and pressure inputs can be programmed to a user defined curve for custom senders

  • Can be setup for a single, dual or combination temperature / pressure display.

  • Both temperature and pressure readings have a programmable low and high alarm

  • Records maximum temperature and pressure reached in permanent memory

  • Supports Rotax 4-20mA pressure sender as used in 912/914 engines
