Insomnia Continues - question

So while my Insomnia rages on... I managed to do some reading in between play TOCA 3 last night. (great game btw).

Scott,
In the Interceptor Manual, on Screen 31: Setup, under #13 SHIFT, it states
"Allows shift lights on dash displa to be setup"

I am assuming that means an additional Shift Light attachment will need to be purchased from somewhere to take advantage of this. yes/no???

Also, same question for #15 AIR-T, "Allows air temp warning on dash display to illuminate".

I believe the term dash is referring to this

http://www.microtech-efi.com/product/2.html

but you may be able to use some of its functionality for custom things, like a shift/warning light

Hmm, ok thats what i was thinking. I think i'll pass since to me the value for that light is less than $500. I can see how it would make sense for some others though.

Activating the rpm output will send a signal to the aux out on the front of the interceptor once you reach the set rpm. You could wire up any light you want through a relay to that output.

The air temp setting will flash your laptop screen air temp gauge red if you reach the preset temp.

Interesting... i was wanting to set it up a way the entire dash can flash (like flip to the other background color), or possibly another light on board. I'll look further into this later.

Thanks for the info
