Default dashlogic for fuel PSI

I have a fuel pressure sensor connected to my fuel rail and wired into my dashlogic analog channel 1. The only thing I can get it to read is the voltage of the sensor. I've tried typing in the formula to convert the voltage signal to PSI , but I cannot get it to work.

if I use the ( ) as shown in other posts on this forum, it just shows exactly what i hav entered. if I use the { } it just shows the voltage signal from the sensor.

I'm trying to get it to convert the voltage to PSI by adding the following formula to the signal voltage *36.25 = 18.1
* the 2.16 below is an average figure

Fuel PSI = {10001} - shows "Fuel PSI = 2.16"
Fuel PSI = ((pid(10001) * 36.25) - 18.1) - shows "Fuel PSI = ((pid(10001) * 36.25) - 18.1) "

I've tried several other combinations and cannot get it to display correctly . Some of the formulas I enter just show "Fuel PSI = N/A"

who here has gotten it to work?


for reference, it's a 150 psi sensor
.5v = 0
2.5v = 75psi
4.5v = 150

the 5v supply is tapped off my MAP sensor, the signal and ground are connected to the dashlogic analog input.


I've got to be missing something simple!

never mind ...... after doing some more digging , it looks like i'm trying to insert the formula in the wrong place. I have to creat a custom PID and then use that number ......
