Scotty, I believe you described how to combine the two cables into a nine pin in a previous posting; I seem to recall coming across it in my earlier diggings, but can't find it now that I have a little better understanding since seeing the BlueFire in action. If you have discussed this, I would be appreciative if you could direct me to the description/schematic of the cable combination. Also, if I decide to stick with the six pin port for awhile, should the three pin connector have a terminating resistor plugged into it? It doesn't seem to have one. Hope your travels are fantastic.

Mr. Hutto, I have a 2006 Monaco Diplomat 38PST. I recently bought the BlueFire adapter to gain access to engine data after having an issue with an intermittent coolant temperature guage. I'm going to re-do my dash panel and guages with the addition of a Samsung Galaxy Tablet for real time engine monitoring. I have a six pin port next to my steering column that has active data, a six pin port in the driver side fuse compartment without active data, a nine pin port in the engine bay below the access cover (tied to the dipstick sleeve) that has active data, and a three pin CAN-bus in the mass of wiring shoved into the area beneath the panel to the left of the driver seat. I have not checked the three pin connector for data because I wouldn't know how to try. I've been intrigued by several of your posts about the common issues folks have had regarding their data busses, and I would like to know if it is possible to get more data from the bus to show more real time data on screen via the bluefire adapter. The three pin plug doesn't seem to have a terminating resistor, and I may be chasing a ghost since I do not believe this RV has had any optional monitoring (Aladdin, etc.), and the three pin CAN bus may not even be active. Can the three pin and the six pin be combined to present a more comprehensive picture of the workings of the machine to be displayed on screen? Thank you, Thomas Hull
