I have an iq3 display dash and a motec m4 with the appropriate racepak interface, im getting all the signals that the little slip of paper that came with the motec interface said I would, but i was wondering is there any reason why the aux temp and aux volt signals don't come through the interface? i have them setup as oil temp and fuel pressure and it would be nice to have them displayed as well. Is it somthing that might be released in a later firmware update or the like?

Thanks,
Craig.

Craig,

You should be able to stream these through the 2 custom channels. See the link below to the following video from you tube that explains on how to do that:

Thanks for your response. The video you posted is for an m800 motec,
Mine is the m4 model witch connects to the racepak interface via serial cable. Is the procedure still the same?

Yes, the process is the same, since the data is just streaming to the dash either by serial or can.

Thanks
Tim
