Problem getting battery voltage to show on DASH2

[marck_c]

Hi,

I have a DASH2 and DL1 installed and connected via serial cable. I have the DASH2 setup to display a number of channels from the DL1, namely analog 1-7. These work satisfactorily. However I cannot get it to display DL1 analog channel #8 which is Battery Voltage.

I have configured the DASH2 using the Config Utility. I rename analog #8 from the DL1 "Batt" and upload it, however when connected all I get is
"T" and "00000" as values on the DASH2. I checked the DL1 using Lite Monitor and channel #8 is displaying Battery Voltage. For some reason the DASH2 is not reading this channel. Can anyone help?

I ended up having to use one of the DASH2 input channels. I applied battery voltage to it, and scaled it using y=1x.

Thanks Marck, which channel did you use, do you think it matters as they are all analogue?

Does'nt really matter. Any one of the 4 inputs will work.

It all worked when I did exactly as suggested - but on analogue input 6 not 8
