Craig,

Why didn't you set it to 0,000? You don't have the 6th gear...

Boris,

I have six gears and, yes, it's compatible with the MYP I used to have.

The more I find out about this the better it gets, I had no idea that the gear indicator would work on a manual and how clever it is to work it out via the ratios !!!!

I can't wait to get mine installed.

I think the best thing about it is the large digital speedo and the ability to place import information directly into the DIS without having to toggle through menus.

Hi Steve,
the cycling computers with GPS also work in the same way. If its good for a push bike, its good for the car:eek:
 
Has anyone figured out yet how to order direct? I have looked at the links in this thread and have sent emails to the company,I assume it's Russian,anyhow I have sent in English and have also sent a google translate one!! Haha,god knows what it said.anyhow,I don't mind ordering direct if I can find a way to do so.

Suggest you contact the 'guru', Bala_de_plata, the author of this thread.

Cheers Spike
 
I have,he suggested contacting them direct but there's obviously a language barrier or my google translate is useless as I haven't had any replies from emails!
So was wondering if someone else has managed to order diect and if so wether they could help me.

Engaged the cruise today and a nice surprise. Not only do you get the nice green cruise indication in the DIS, but you also get the speed alongside it. A welcome improvement over the nothingness of the standard DIS.
 
Not certain about whether this can be added at such a late stage, but, being the music fiend I am, I like to know what I am listening to on from my RNS-E (or perhaps Symphony III units). Because the display on the RNS-E is limited to EITHER partial filename (ie first 15 or so characters)/timing OR fuller track information it can be most frustrating to get much detail on the track.

Can I therefore request the following options:
A scrolling Track Title
A scrolling Artist name
Time Elapsted/Left on a track

Less essential, but still nice would be
Scrolling Album title
Genre
MP3 bitrate?

I appreciate that the above would take up most of a DIS, but honestly, most of the time that's all I would want on it, especially if there is an option to cycle between different displays by pressing the button on the arm.
 
Updated to firmware version 21 today. ICE warning icon now flashes a pretty blue colour.

It's a pity it loses all settings after a reset.

Do we have to do this every time?

Nice ! . .so I do not see why we cannot have power shown ?
How accurate is it ?
Hope Timmus makes it back from the jungle :D
 
I would recommend the existing software first before asking for more.

Power can be measured/calculated in kW, (B)HP, hp (metric), PS...

Engine torque is calculated in real time by the ECU.
 
Units usually used in the UK.

Questions:
Pressure - bar or psi?
Remaining fuel - litres or gallons?
Distance - miles or km?
Fuel consumption - mpg or l/100 km?
Fuel consumption at idle - gal/h or l/h?
Torque - Nm or lb.-ft.?
Anything else?

Thanks!
