AviJake,

The install manual doesn't list Insight's graphic engine monitors as integrating fuel flow info with the IFD. I am considering the Insight G3 for my panel. Is there any chance that the Insight G series of monitors will be added to the integration list?

Insight's new G series models communicate fuel flow information over RS232 using a standard protocol (I can't remember if it is Shadin or JPI), but either of those will work with the IFD540.

Yes, the GEM3 uses the Shadin-FADC format and that is supported by the IFD540. I'll look to add it to the list of supported devices in the Install Manual.
