MX1 Firmware update 16

This one adds a new option related to differential fuel flow. As implemented differential fuel flow creates a new special text item containing the differential flow you can use in a custom screen design.
If differential flow is selected in the FF1 flow setup menu you now get a new selection allowing you to choose to treat FF1 as the result. In other words, FF1 = FF1 - FF2. This then allows you to use differential flow without change to existing screen designs including the built in ones. This is also applicable for the calculated tank (in the differential case you can have only one per RDAC - calculated tank 1).
Note that if you choose the new selection the FF1 and FF2 flow readings in the RDAC diagnostics menu will still read the actual values for both unchanged so this is usable in order to "debug" the differential flow.
