Expermintal FE meter, first pictures...
This is the prototype of my DFM7 gauge. The display doesn't photograph very well in low light. Four buttons are soldered on the underside of the board: Left, Right, OK and Cancel. I've run a program on it already that does a good job displaying MPG on my specific vehicle, but now it's time to implement a complete menu system so that I don't need to reflash it to make adjustments. In addition to the typical trip and tank mpg/distance/fuel consumption numbers, I'm adding a historical average that doesn't reset when you fill up. This will be useful for calculating economy over long periods of time.
