Hi Paul,

You can do it, but you will have to change the dipswitch inside the EMS-2 to turn the internal pull up off. Select "Generic input", Select calibrate sender and set your points to 2. Enter 1st point display: 0 , adc 1 408, 2nd display in max "hg, adc 2 point 3705. Change the label, unit and ...

We are on Version 2.20. See the firmware revision doc for changes.

If it has a 2.XX on the start up screen then it is a Gen 2 unit.

Yes, you are lucky. We have just recently released a massive update to the Xtreme EMS Gen 2 firmware. The XTreme EMS Gen 2 now supports a screen designer for custom displays (Perfect for your setup). See the MGL website for more ...

Hi Jim,

Have you updated both Gen 1 Xtreme EMS to the latest firmware V1.12

Loading default settings will restore the code to 0. Press and hold the F1/Up button and rotary control during power up to load the pre-programmed factory default settings

Does the fact that Channel 3 doesn’t read “FUEL PRESS SETUP” mean that there is a problem?

No, Channel 3 is a general purpose analog input.

Have you selected "PRESSURE" for mode and "RESISTIVE" for the type?

We have a standard RS232 level converter inside the Blaze instrument. +-12V levels meet specification.

You need all the gp messages listed in the manual if you want the satellite position in the skyview and signal quality to be displayed on the GPS page. The GPRMC and GPGGA will be fine if you just want fuel range.

Just make sure you are using com port 2 to connect to your gps data source.

Please make sure that the baud rate in the EMS-1 comm menu is set to 57600.
