Looking for a little help on the EIO interface

[Injected1]

I am looking to upgrade my HPT to the Pro Interface. I have 3 simple questions.


Your "FAQ" on initial difference mentions I can attach 5 Analog Sources. What are the other three plugs for?

Does the MPVI pro have a 12v Supply and ground?

When I upgrade do I need to purchase the MPVI Pro EIO Plug? What is that for?

The other three plugs are two switchable outputs, and a ground. Outputs are limited to 200ma I believe... good for small relays or LED's.

I'm not sure what you're getting at with this, the unit is powered through the OBDII plug and/or the USB interface. It is limited in how much current it can supply. It does not have an external power input as far as I know.

I'm not sure if the "upgrade" includes the EIO plug, but that's where you hook your 5 inputs and two outputs to. If your box doesn't have that, you'll need it if you want to hook up a wideband, fuel pressure, etc. gauge.
