    ***SOLVED***For those who own the Scangauge 2, does yours shut off when in EV mode? As soon as RPM hits 00 the entire gauge shuts off, which of course is understandable considering most standard vehicles aren't still in motion after the engine turns off. Nevertheless, I've searched the forum and google but couldn't find a definitive answer to this. Is there a code for an Xgauge that would enable the gauge to stay on while in EV mode? Thank you for your time and sorry if this has been brought up before ,but I've taken time to search and have uncovered nothing on the subject.

    There should be a mode on the SG for hybrid vehicle mode. I believe it's under More > Setup > Fuel > Type.

    You don't need to enter any XGauges to prevent the shutoff. I don't think entering any would help either.

    You need to set the Fuel Type to Hybrid.

    For Firmware 3.xx, Go to MORE -> SETUP -> FUEL -> TYPE and select HYBRID.

    For Firmware 4.xx, Go to MORE -> SETUP ->FUEL TYPE and select HYBRID.

    There is also a Sleep Mode setting under the Advanced Settings. Change the Default Value to Loss of Comms.

    This is on my 4.05 rev firmware.

    :LOL: Didn't you look at the set-up directions when you bought it? It showed me exactly how to set up mine when I bought it. :D
