Oil Temp and Pressure readings off scale

[jaba-who]

I have installed a D 180 with a Jabiru 3300 engine (which has not yet run)
and am having a problem with the oil temp and Pressure readings.

The engine has no oil in it yet and is sitting at ambient temp in the shed.

When I connect up the oil temp and pressure probes to the dynon they both read full scale.
If I disconnect them and connect up the old Jabiru analogue gauges both gauges show low readings.

Also I am getting a reading of about 670 on the MAP scale on the Dynon but I don't have a probe connected to the wire.

Any hints as to why I am getting the high readings on the Oil T & P and a reading at all on the MAP?

The MAP issue is expected- unless you have a sensor hooked to a wire, the readings will be random.

Have you set the sensor type in the setup menu to type 3 for oil pressure and type 5 for oil temp? The readings will be totally wrong until you do this.
