One of the most common is via a newsreader (e.g. Outlook Express). Therefore it is important to include the details of the post to which you are replying, so newsreaders can interpret them correctly.

The above link do not show any details about wiring connection. I have decided to progress with a separate hourmeter and leave the original tachometer only for the RPM display. The reason is because of the uncertainty of hourmeter connection. The VDO is connected to the motor with two wires that carry the RPM pulse. It is my believe that RPM pulses are internally analyzed to originate the "motor running" information to the original hourmeter. I'm progressing with a mechanical 12V hourmeter and a small 12V relay connected to the alternator output. |

When the switch is on the hour meter runs, when it is off it doesn't. Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) |

Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) My design is based on a real "motor running" hourmetering, while, your proposal is to consider the "power to the engine" equal to "engine running", that is almost true. I've been captured by VDO electronic design, and lost the practical side of the problem. Thanks Dino |

Just use the igntion feed, it will be wrong by a few seconds every few hours at most. -- Nigel M |

The word "essential" denotes something of absolute necessity--something that you can't get by without. But Webroot Internet Security Essentials 2011 ($60 for one year, three PCs, as of 12/2/2010) is sadly a bit of a misnomer: Its antimalware performance proved it was simply not up to the task of securing a modern PC. If you want "essential" protection, you'll need to look elsewhere.
