Drive PVA gauge from PV450?

Post by drphil69 » Mon Nov 18, 2013 3:48 pm

Hello,

Is there any way to drive a PVA gauge directly from a PV450 display? I have code in the display that determines if a shutdown alarm needs to sound, but I cannot figure out how to get that directed to a PVA buzzer. The system also has two XM500's. Is there any way to send the alarm to an XM, e.g. to turn on one of the digital outputs, and then get a J1939 message back from the XM that I could use for this?

Thanks,
Phil
