Can you set the gauges up on a daisy chain and run more than one AEM gauge?

 

hey guys well i finally got the aem gauges installed however I am wondering if any of you know how to set it up to read boost in psi. Thanks for the help

 

Its in the mode. Press both bottons after powering up the gauge. Then press both again to scroll through each thing in the menu. I think PSI is the first one...

 

would i have to set the gauge up for the 3.5map sensor which is what I have or can i run it off the base cal.

 

I am running Defi gauges (Oil press and Boost) in the A pillar and then I have a PLX hooked up to my AEM 1052. I will be installing an AEM serial gauge into the audio control spot and will be looking mostly at AFR (through the PLX wideband) but will have the ability to look at more.

 

ZSAK, When I decided to add gauges to monitor vacuum/boost, fuel pressure, and air/fuel mixture parameters on my Comptech s/c & a/c S, I looked at what was available on the market. I decided that I did not want gauges on the "A" pillar because of the loss of some field-of-view. Placing three gauges on the radio cover was too expensive ($1,100) and required dropping vision too far down and away from road view to be safe when driving.
I settled on the "DynoTune" Square Digital Gauges (www.dynotunenitrous.com) to solve the need. For vacuum/boost values, I selected DynoTune's Boost Pressure Gauge w/Transducer ($159.00) because: it is only 2.12" Wide x 1.37" Tall x 0.6" Deep, has a large digital display to 0.1 PSI resolution, and its Red or optional Green Backlight LCD is direct sunlight viewable. With the purchase of a Fuel Pressure transducer and a two-way rocker switch (Radio Shack), I am able to use the Vacuum/Boost Digital Gauge to also display Fuel Pressure by the flip of the red rocker switch (installed on lower left dash below radio remote VOL +/- filp switch. For air/fuel mixture values, I selected DynoTune's Wideband A/F Gauge and LC-1 controller (installed in new bung welded on exhaust headpipe just opposite OEM wideband sensor) that feeds into the gauge to display actual air/fuel ratio readings. This gauge and controller combo is pre-configured to work right out of the box.
I had the two gauges installed (using velcro pads ) side-by-side on the dash top between the driver's "A" pillar and the hump for the tach. The gauge nearest the tach hump is setback just enough for its one wire (black) to go behind the adjacent gauge. Both gauges wires slip easily between the "A" pillar cover and the dash so they are hidden. Only the red rocker switch required drilling a hole in the dash. The interior of my S is black and the DynoTune gauge rectangular shaped frames are also the same shade of black. I keep a black knit sportscar cap in my S to cover the two DynoTune gauges when parked in public.
I am very pleased with the looks, functions, and easy readability of the two DynoTune gauge displays. One can read the displays with just a flick of the eye day or night without losing view (out of corners of the eye) of the road ahead.

well i think i found the problem, i can't connect to the gauge. The usb/serial adapter works on my ems but I can't seem to get it to work on the gauge. sp close yet so far away lol

btw jmoore thanks for the recommendation however I have already gotten the serial gauge
