Hi there, Im running Realdash V2.6.0 now on a Raspberry Pi 3B. I am connecting my realdash via USB/Serial to a Rusefi ECU.
I’m not on a paid version of RD yet, still just a registered user for now.
The problem is :
Somehow, i seem to be able to get all the channels i want over from the rusefi.ini file that RD ask for, i get my RPM, VE, CLT, IAT, Oil Temp, Batt Voltage, Fuel Press, MAP, Boost, pretty much everything except for Oil Pressure.
I have gone thru the list of ecu specific inputs in RD and went on to search anything related to oil or pressure , but no where can i find anything on oil pressure.
I have done this with 2 different rusefi ecu’s and from older realdash version to latest. still the same thing, the oil pressure field is not coming.
I have also checked the rusefi.ini file output channels and the oil pressure is there. just not coming to RD.
anyone had this issue before?

First, verify if Engine Oil Pressure is coming in on some of the ECU analog inputs.
- Connect to your vehicle
- Go to ‘Settings->Application->Debug->Debug Data View’
- Select ‘Custom’ category
- See if any of the ECU custom values corresponds to your actual oil pressure.
Can I see the debug data view on a non paid version? I tried doing that but it pop’s up the subscription page.
Any other way around this?
You can try to add a text gauge to your dashboard and link it to values in ‘ECU Specific’ category to see if any one of them matches the oil pressure.
Hi, I was in contact with @nishirams earlier on the Discord world and steered him to here, but decided to look it up myself too, since I can access the Debug Data View 
I tested this with Proteus f4 and latest rusEFI firmware. (USB/Serial) Oil pressure is visible in Debug Data View on my setup.
But, the value conversion is wrong, and the gauge maxes out if no conversion is added to gauge maths. With V/100 it works correctly. (White text gauge is “raw value” and the gauge max set to 10000)

Thanks Palepp , yes I’m your case the oil pressure field is coming, even on USB/Serial, I’ve gone through the list 4 times over and in my case engine oil pressure is not there, of course I can’t see it in debug view as I’m not subscribed. I guess my only way to get this to work would be to use CAN as I’m waiting for my Canable adaptor.
Is there a 1 off subscription type for RD or it’s only monthly on going now?
It seems like ECU is sending oil pressure in kpa and RealDash always expects incoming pressure values to be in bar. But conversion V/100 does make it show correctly.
It seems like ECU is sending oil pressure in kpa
Yeah exactly, i just realized this morning that i didn’t consider the unit used in ECU while i was checking this yesterday, but very likely it is in kpa.
And @nishirams i sent you a Lua script that fakes the oil pressure reading inside ECU so you can try it out again with Realdash, to see if it works/reads at all. And i can send example dash file for Realdash where the gauge is set up correctly already
And then the real question is, should this conversion be changed in the ECU firmware or Realdash .ini file parser 
Send me your ini file and I will take a look.
