DashDaq XL Rediness Monitoring

This may seem like a stupid question for some of you. How in the world I can monitor Readiness Status of the different components via my DashDaq XL??? For the life of my I can not find it anywhere in the menus or figure it out! Also what formula re you guys using for monitoring boost. The one in the user manual is useless and it is not correct.
Thanks a ton!

Here's the settings from the manufacturer that worked like a charm:

Try these settings in your calculator:

Input Signal: MAP
Multiplier Signal: Constant Multiplier from Rescale Calculator
Multiplier Sign: 1
Constant Multiplier: 1
Offset Signal: Constant Offset from Rescale calculator
Offset Sign: -1
Constant Offset: 14.7
Name: boost

What do you mean by readiness? Is you dashdaq not picking up the obd signals? If that's the case go to settings and scan via obd for signals and you should have everything. Available through obd in your list

What I mean is that you can see which system is ready and which not. Drive cycle status.

Do you have the ZT-2? The boost sensor is not very expensive and tapping the surge tank is not very hard. Real-time boost readout without the lag sure is nice to have and doesn't look like stair steps on your data logs.

Yes Sir, I do have the ZT-2. There was a guy here selling surge tanks with a tap in the passenger side for boost sensor. Can you tell me what exactly do i need as far a sensor goes?

Not really. Mine is right there by the oil dipstick tube:



Surge tank is really easy to remove. You'll want to remove it so the shavings don't go into the engine (duh).

Also get a good tap for it .. These are decent quality taps. I tried using a cheap harbor freight tap I had in a set .. almost ruined the hole.

This is one I bought and used:
