Cheri & for anyone else wondering what VMS-PC is here you go:

Silverleaf VMSpc is an intelligent data translator that links your USB port to the engine diagnostic connector on your rig. Together with the VMS software, it allows you to read performance and diagnostic information right on your laptop computer. You get complete diagnostics, trip information, and a great graphing system that lets you display up to five parameters at once. You can even store the engine data to a file and load it into a spreadsheet. Includes USB cable, 9 or 6 pin diagnostic connector, dongal (translates the data), CD and instructions.

The Silverleaf VMSpc also let's you program audible alarms based on any engine parameter. For example, you can set it to play any WAV file (grab a microphone and record your own!) when your road speed reaches a certain point. Have it played once, once a minute, or continuously.


And you can create a "Tank Minder", which provides a miles-to-empty calculation based on your tank size and fuel economy. VMSpc lets you enter correction factors to compensate for a poorly calibrated engine. You can even program gauges to read in metric, if you desire.
