Default C6 Engine Oil Temperture Display

My question is should the temperature displayed on a properly scaled data logger connected to the OBDII connector for Engine Oil Temperature (ECU Channel ECU_18) be the same as the engine oil temperature displayed on the DIC display?

I am at this time dealing with an oil temperature display error between my OEM DIC digital display and my AiM MXL2 Dash Logger. The AiM hardware is installed in my 05 Corvette track car.The AiM MXL2 communicates with the ECU OBDII connection to display, alarm and log the 22 Channels of the ECU data stream. ECU_18 is the channel for Engine oil temperature.
My problem is that the MXL2 display is reading 30 Deg F higher than the OEM DIC display. All of the other ECU channels display and log correctly.
