    Default Dashboard help

    I can not figure out how to build usable gauges. I am trying to datalog data on an A40 Allison 6spd. Does anyone have a dashboard with the following gauges from the TCM:

    TPS%
    Gear
    VSS
    TCC Lockup
    TFT

    I don't care what they look like as long as I can data log the info to help fine tune my shift points.

    Thx

    On the Dash A tab, do rightclick and choose a theme and choose a gauge...

    then on the gauge do rightclick and choose a pid...

    then on the gauge do richtclick->Properties and edit the high/low marks and the various properties to taste, click save, end exit.

    The only pid that comes close to being TCM throttle position is "Throttle Angle at Shift" GM.TPSSHFT, and I don't know if it is supported by A40.
