I got my new iDash installed and I need some help with a few of the available parameters:<br />
<br />
-On the "emissions" page, I see listed "DPF RG, DPF regen trigger %" but then I also see "PM 1, particulate matter %". What is the difference, and which one gives a picture of the current state of the DPF?<br />
<br />
-What is the difference between "LOAD absolute" and "LOAD calculated", and which is a better picture of what the engine is doing?<br />
<br />
-I notice there are multiple EGT sensors. Theres EGT sensors 1 thru 5, but then theres also EGT sensors 1/1 thru 1/5. What is the difference?<br />
<br />
-Lastly (at least for now), is Trans Temp supposed to available on the iDash? Because depending on which parameter list you read from Banks, one lists trans temp and one doesn't. Can anyone using the iDash on a 2024 confirm if its available on the gauge?

</blockquote>I can't answer many of your questions unfortunately. I had an Edge CTS3 that I sold for a dual Banks iDash setup. The Edge had trans temp and torque convertor lock status which I find important and the iDash doesn't. I called Banks last week to confirm the lack of convertor lock status and temp status. Their reply was that it will be added sometime in the future. <br />
<br />
As for a EGT temps, I monitor EGT sensor 1 and sensor 3. No idea about 1/1 etc. I also monitor particulate matter %, but can't tell you what that means exactly. After a regen my banks gauge goes to around 40% and then regens again around 95%.<br />
<br />
Kinda wish I would have kept my Edge because they've had six years to add lockup status and trans temp as there were available on the 4th gen.</div>
