Daisy Chain your Scangauge!

It was asked a while back in a thread. Turns out that we can daisy chain the Scangauge and it is easier then we thought. According to what I read it is just a matter of adding a short Cat5 cable from one to the other, which you can buy or make. Apparently there is no limit to how many Scangauges other then your wallet.


reference: Scangauge II and XGauge...

NICE!

I always wondered what they had that CAT5 cable for on the side.

Tried to rep you, but I'm still in rep jail pending release

I will throw this in too for those that haven't been around the XGauge portion much: Ford Specific XGauges : Linear Logic : Home of the ScanGauge and keep in mind that as they figure out new sensors they add to the list.

Dunno how I missed this when it was posted but glad I saw it now. Reps sent!

Does it slow down the data rate at all? I love my SGII, but hardly use it now that I have Aeroforce Scangauges in both PSD's. I do like the idea of displaying (8) parameters at once though - very cool!!!
