Thanks I was working with an old Garmin I have laying around. The
real unit I plan on using is a 18 5Hz which is just a two wire
connection. I just wanted to get a bit of proof of concept before I
spent the $$ on a new unit. With your help I got to that point and
ordered the new unit. Now I might even be able to get a rough setup
made and installed in the bike before heading to the track in November
:-). If not I got the winter to play and add sensors.
