I have an extra gauge on the A-pillar that shows Fuel Pressure and volts.

On the SG2: main FICM volts, ECT, EOT, and BST

I change BST to watch TFT or MPH on long drives. Also change it to ICP once/twice a month for a few days to watch it during cold/hot starts just to see if things change.

Having issues/trouble shooting I use torque pro on my tablet. 6 gauges per page.
I notice he posted His just how the order is on the screen. Easier to subtract ECT from EOT at a glance!

Here is the web link:
Ford/Lincoln/Mercury Specific : Linear Logic : Home of the ScanGauge

I believe ECT is already programmed as fWT

FWT = farenheit water temp. Why it couldn't be engine water temp? I have no idea. An engineer must have had input.

Yep, normal. To check, see what the readings are after a long cold soak of the engine, meaning, after sitting over night. The 3 readings should be real close.

Tft is normal it runs considerably cooler than engine stuff. 150s to 170s is normal.

My tft never went over 185 towing a 5er in the Sierras. Empty was anywhere between 160 and 170.

VLT EOT
XXX fWT

XXX is whatever I am watching at the time and gets changed around, right now it's FSS.

Two most important to me are VLT and EOT.
