Hi, Ed....it is the AV-10 engine monitor system made in Canada. I have

unsuccessfully to contact Peter Rummel, (the manufacturer) to inquire

the recommended oil temp sensor.  It has a female voice that alerts you to
any item that goes out of parameters.  I will make the same inquiry to the
Canard Aviator's group, as many LongEZ aircraft have the AV-10 engine
monitor. Even though they are running Lycomings, perhaps they can shed

light. Thanks, Ed.  Paul Conner
