No prob. I have all the spec sheets and instructions for all of the connectors.
The tool less connection thing is sort of funny. It really is a nice connector, but not a big deal. Though I guess it's an easy to way disconnect power in the car when you need to. I would guess it was driven by a few factors, but never asked directly. It won't change now, so it's what we get!

Quick dirty comparison of Displays, PDM08, PDM32, vs MXG 1.2
A few things don't make sense, but these are copied from technical pages.
One thing missing from the PDMxx that makes me go hmmmm, is the Wifi.
Haven't compared the details of display configurations, or math channels.

The WiFi not being included (as said by Fabrizzio the hardware designer) is the machined aluminum case precludes putting the WiFi antenna in the PDM.

^ That was one of the confusing things about the tech sheets, the PDM32 data sheet says:
Maybe all the "dashes", but not the MXm.
14 fully configurable, recorded at max 500 Hz each:
8 analog (0-5V ; 0-12V)/digital inputs
4 digital inputs
2 speed inputs
"In fact, all AiM expansion products [work] with the PDM and current dashes"4 digital inputs
2 speed inputs
Maybe all the "dashes", but not the MXm.

Yes, the MXm only works with the SCHD and LCU-One but none of the others.

Tomorrow is the update webinar from Fabrizzio on the PDM. If you are not already on the webinars, here is the link to sign up https://aimsports.zoom.us/webinar/re...T0S-gsuMhJ251Q
Also of interest to some folks, there will be a SAP-32 that will be just the PDM functions without GPS, logging, or display options. No word on price or when it will be released, but it will be a great alternative for people who just want a PDM or to use with other data systems.

I'm playing around in RS3-beta, configuring a PDM32.
There is no channel dedicated to RPM, and there's no 'RPM' function available in the analog channel configurations.
Display configuration and Math channels seem to want a pre-dedicated RPM channel.
Is the ECU stream the only way to provide a pre-dedicated RPM channel?
Being OBD1, this may be a show stopper for me.

Now that winter is approaching, back to looking at options (08 vs 32, 10 vs 6, etc)
So AiM provides with the PDM purchase, at no additional cost, a converter for a pulsed-RPM-signal-to-CAN protocol, that then the PDMxx and AiM s/w understands?
Is it one of the current Manufacturers/Models in the RS3-beta CAN2 selection menu? (That is, how can I set up RS3-beta to mimic this?)
