Todd,

 

I would love to have a tach = divider.  I’m closing in on the first start and am not confident in my = current set-up (Connecting the CAS in parallel).  Would like to minimize = delay if that doesn’t work.  If it does work I will let everyone know and = pass along the tach divider to someone else.  Thanks – =
