Digital Gauges

Cool. Let us know what the gauges look like on the iPhone. $285 is not bad for a NMEA-2000 WiFi interface with built in server.

Hey Photolomy,

Thanks for the tips! I had been trying to calibrate only with the MD33 calibration tool. Using the CBPort made it much easier. I did find out that my temperature senders are 0-5V, I think you mentioned the "narrow range" in your post. Anyway, I was able to get them pretty close. Cold was 4.6V = 81.6F and warmed up at the dock, was 1.9V = 113F, or something like that. Need to go out for a test run and see how they work at operating range. Hopefully works out so we don't have to look into replacing stuff to get 0-12V readings.

Interface between CBPort, Calibration utility and the MD33 was pretty good and consistent. After calibrating values, I wanted to check on Alarm settings and communication started dropping out. After some re-starts and a few other tries, I gave up. Will work on thet later.

Thanks again!
