Does anyone know of a nice matched set of gauges that will work good for a
control panel? I'd like to find some lighted ones for the dash on my boat. I'm
planning on having the following measurements displayed.
I am also planning to have some warning lights, and a large master caution to
get attention. I prefer analog gauges, but since I'm making an electronic
control for the engine, it might make more sense to use digital readouts and
perhaps bargraph displays. (Probably also much cheaper) What do all of you
thjink?

is it wonderware or labview that you are giving away that belongs to sempra
energy? and do you have the ladder code as well?

Eh? no all of this is written by me. and sometime a friend of mine. its mostly
in C#. The Electronics are going to take the most time. For another problem the
pressure transducers i got have a weird connector on them i am going to have to
track down. but the interface is coming along nicely.

If you are using modern industrial transducers then it's more than likely a
'Hirschmann' type...
