Adding 2nd EGT to assembled VEMS
« on: March 23, 2008, 05:19:03 pm »
I inadvertantly ordered my pre-assembled VEMS configured with only one EGT on-board and would like to have two. :(

Is this as simple as adding a second AD597AR chip or are other parts needed? I already have two thermocouples.

Any guidance out there regarding the steps to add the second before I dig into this?

Thanks!

Mike

IIRC the AD597AR has two inputs, so its down to getting the second channel connected with k-type wire.

According to the build sheet you install another chip on the flip side,
