Has anyone been able to display timing advance from a Plasma III on a D-180 system?

Lightspeed has come out with this new product allowing 5 volt signal to be sent to an EFIS. The display name on a D-180 wouldn't be called Timing Advance but we should still be able to have a numerical value on the display that would read correctly...right?

I have links to the Lightspeed website and L2E manual on FDataSystems website which co-produced the unit. However I'm unable to link because of my post count.

I have the same question. I too would like to know if the L2e will display Lightspeed timing advance (for a dual EI system) onto a D-180. The L2e installation instructions mention scaling the input on the EFIS (for example: 2.5v = 25 degrees advance timing). Is this possible with the D-180 General Purpose Inputs?

The D180 doesn't really have any programmable/renamable inputs, unlike SkyView, where you can make a bar/dial/digit/widget out of anything with a variable 0-5VDC voltage output.
