Currently using a Link G4+ Fury in combination with an HTG GCU transmission controller. While I’m getting my basic gears 1-8 to display I’m unable to find a way to display R, D, and Neutral. Link Registers these signals just fine and displays them accordingly on my laptop, Realdash simply displays 8 for Neutral and Reverse, while Drive (non-manual mode) displays the current gear. An added bonus would be a way to configure Realdash to display “M” for Manual mode. Current the Output Values from the HTG to Link. While I can assume these are directly passed through to Realdash via Seedstudio adapter (CAN) R=10 Neutral = 11 1= 1 2= 2 3= 3 4= 4 5= 5 6= 6 7= 7 8= 8 Not sure which end to start on but seeing as my Link registers the signal just fine I opt’d to start here. Thanks! ---

Is it possible to simply replace the Target ID 200 line in the “displaylink” call out for “gear” with as follows? Apologies this is a new venture entirely for me. ![image](https://forum.realdash.net/uploads/default/original/1X/16cf69ddff60c16b9ccfff45233ae6b3217214db.jpeg) ---

You should be able to map your custom value to ‘Gear’ in Settings-\>Units & Values-\>Input Mapping. ---

While this does allow a numerical value to be displayed it only shows a numerical value and not the desired “position” such as P,N,D. Is it possible from the app side to edit this? Any attempt to update/change the xml file leads to a corrupted error on my end. ---

Well, don’t know why it corrupts. Try to use an editor that visually shows any structural errors in your XML file. ---

Good call on the visual check! Enum also did the trick. Thanks guys!
