1st. BE WARNED.... If you buy the Insight (around $ 300) you will need to spend another $ 85 plus shipping for an EGT probe !!!

2nd. BE WARNED.... EDGE advertises that the insight is VISTA compatible. This is a partial truth. The CD that comes with the Insight comes with two programs. One program is called FUSION and it connects the Insight to your USB port and check for firmware revisions and updates with EDGE. This part WORKS. The second program (and the one you really need) is called Insight Profile. This program is the one that gives you access to set up your EDGE device and customize what parameters you want to read and alerts you want to set.

THIS PROGRAM IS NOT VISTA COMPATIBLE AS ADVERTISED !!!!!!

I spent time on the phone with EDGE support and they told me that 'SOME PC's' running VISTA was not working. I tried four different PC's with VISTA and none of them were compatible !!!!!


The support guy then suggested that "I borrow a PC from a buddy that was operating on Windows XP". Oh and buy the way, anytime I wanted to make a change I would need to borrow and reinstall the software from 'my buddy'. Not really my opinion of a solution

Oh yeah, I am on a complaint list so if they ever resolve the problem I can get the program.
