Joseph Ottesen Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I was tossing up ideas for my instrument cluster today...... Obviously i could go buy a whole lot of Aftermarket Gauges i.e Tacho, Speedo, Water temp, Oil Temp, Oil Press etc etc..... but to buy good quality gauges its gonna cost a Shite load (seen the price of Defi gauges??? OMG) Ive seen the Link Display and it does look good, but looks as tho it would probably it would be to small to read whilst also concentrating on Driving I had an idea of Using a small laptop and using the LinkTune programe for my instrument Cluster, the only problem is the gauges look kind of..... well boring. is there any way to change the visual appearance of the gauges? Cheers for any help Joseph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Sadly there is not a way of changing the look of PCLink. Simon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Ottesen Posted April 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 SO no ones made any kind of emulator-type thing that can change the way the PCLINK displays the gauges...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Ottesen Posted April 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Can PCLINK be run on Linux OS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Garvan Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Since the Link Dash Display is on Planet Unobtainium can a generic dash display be hooked up?? http://www.hrpworld.com/index.cfm?form_cat_id=1082,1079,310&action;=category Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashesman Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 I believe there are a few other display products out there that are now using the Link protocol. A few guys on these forums have said they are going to make a "fast and furios" dash board display for the ECU's but I dont believe any of them finished their projects! I think a few guys have run PCLink on Linux using a windows emulator but there may be some issues with the com ports.
