I am not sure but don't think so. I think the alarms are completely separate thing. Hopefully Dash will chime in for u.

Yes you can set an alarm for each one, then you don't even have to watch them at all. It will not show red, but it will make a sound and change the display to whatever warning text you want to show. Alerts can run in the background, so you don't have to watch any PIDs that have an alert set.
You also can also set your alerts up with a formula, so for example you could set a knock alert to only show when Load is over 60% and RPM is greater than 3000rpms and boost is over 1psi, etc. Pretty much whatever you need it to do.

I've been running the PLX and Dashcommand APP on Lenovo Tablet, very impressed with the IAT, LAMBDA, AFR, BOOST PIDs readings.

The cost of the PLX Kiwi II, App and Tablet is less than $180 bucks and able run other apps like WAZE on split screen
You had to swap in a 2 bar map to read boost properly correct?

DashCommand, Torque, and others will do a calculated boost off of MAF flow, so you can see boost on those apps without a MAP upgrade, but it is only a calculation that isn't 100% accurate.

^ With a 3 bar map sensor, required for my boosted application, can I get a more accurate boost reading than the calculated value?

If so, would I have to subtract the barometer reading from the map reading in order to see proper boost? Or is there already a calculated absolute pressure -> boost?

Can it show AFR from the stock O2 sensors or just lambda?


Finally, I enjoy the NPP functionality using the mirror switch. I wonder if any other such functionality exists or is planned? I know some users would like to be able to roll down the windows with the remote, something I believe is accomplished with another ODBII device.


Thanks!

If your question is about DashLogic DashControl, our "Calculated Boost" is exactly that, MAP - BARO so it would be accurate without you needing to do anything more. If your question was about DashCommand or Torque, that would not be the case.

Oh, yeah, I was referring to the DashControl unit, which I purchased a few weeks ago.

Thanks for the clarification!

Interesting little hiccup with the DashControl. Any time mine is plugged in, the radio cannot be turned off (to show the corvette flags). It turns right back on. Pull out the DashControl and the radio will stay off.

Has anyone had an issue with the controller getting lose and disconnecting over bumps? I used to have it connected with an OBD2 splitter because I was also running V1 SAAVY but now I have it directly connected. Ever since putting it in direct the connection isn't great.

THanks!

Best,
Gene

Does anyone know the Dashlogic PID for calculating MAT (Manifold Air Temp). I know it is calculated from a combination of IAT, coolant temps, etc. HP tuners can show it so I assume the Dashlogic can with the right PID.

Thanks
