Hi Crhis! That was a great info. However can you please provide a bit more of detail regarding how kevin actually did it? Like we already bought our LCD. I just want to know how to hook it up to the Operator Interface. After reading through PDF's i herad that you can see the outpouts from dashboard port. However do you actually need extra software(environment) to see the outputs? Or is it as simple as plugging in LCD or Laptop to Dashboard port and it will work?
