Microtech LTC Pro Dash -> Haltech Elite

Microtech tell me that these two are compatible and that my friendly service type person can hook them up, pun intended. That's OK in theory, in practice as usual I'd end up with a No Problem Mate type person type fiddling around at $150 per hour. It's a CAN thing, does anyone know what is basically involved in getting these two digital boxes working together?

Buy a haltech dash, then you can plug it in and turn the key and go.

That would be the sensible thing to do but I just hate those monochrome screens, can't stand looking at them.

It's likely to be quite simple, generally a CAN connection only needs 4 wires (power, earth, hi and low CAN signal). If they say the dash understands haltech it's likely to be as easy as making the connection and choosing some sort of  "read CAN" option on the microtech 

But i haven't specifically worked with those 2, I used haltech and iq3 dash.

Just read that manual, the top 4 pins on the connector are the 4 i mentioned, and page 15 says just choose the "ECU mode".  Looks like it should just work......

Owe you Duncan.
