I am setting up my sensor mapping primarily like the Lycoming/Continental 4-cylinder fuel injected connections depicted in the Dynon installation manual. I am running a ULPower 350iS (old style ECU) which required two red cubes to provide fuel flow in and fuel flow out to provide fuel use rate. I am having trouble in the sensor mapping setup defining the fuel flow out which I am using pin 19 off the EMSD37 for. Seems to only allow me to define one fuel flow sensor. Any takers? Much appreciated!!

Got to talk with a Dynon tech rep today...here is what I learned.  With two EI-FT60 Red Cubes installed, the software runs a correction value from the "fuel return" red cube to the "fuel in" red cube to come up with a fuel flow consumption or usage rate.  Pin 14 for fuel in and Pin 19 for flow out to map the sensors as flow and then adjust the fuel flow setting which will apply to both sensors.  I believe you will have to still adjust the calibration numbers individually to fine tune your actual fuel usage.  Dynon - if you're reading this please feel free to chime in and correct or corroborate -  Thanks!

This is correct and covered in more detail on pages 7-57 and 7-78 of the install manual.
