What it is
The Light Display is one of the display types you can place on an ESP page. Each channel you add shows as a light that illuminates when the channel's value is greater than 1, and stays dark otherwise. It is built for things that are either on or off.
When we use it
- Switch inputs: launch control, anti-lag or datalogging switches, brake or clutch switches
- Outputs: fuel pump, thermofan, A/C clutch, boost solenoid enable
- Status flags you want to watch while tuning or diagnosing
It is especially handy when wiring a new car: flip a switch and watch the matching light change to confirm the input is working before you go further.
Adding and removing channels
Right-click on the display to add or remove channels. For values that change continuously, like temperatures or pressures, a number display, bar gauge or dial gauge is a better fit, and list display suits a long set of values.
