ABSTRACT:
A monitoring system for monitoring a plurality of functions and conditions on a plurality of gauges or display modules. The monitoring system comprises a plurality of sensors (10) each producing a sensor signal in response to sensing of one of a function and a condition; a control device (12) coupled to the plurality of sensors and producing a control signal responsive to each of the sensor signals, the control signal including sensor data information and associate sensor identity information identifying one of the plurality of sensors (10); a plurality of display modules (20) each being programmable and each being coupled to the control device (12); and a plurality of module overlays (58) with one of the plurality of module overlays (58) being coupled to each of the plurality of display modules (20). Each of the plurality of module overlays (58) has module identification means (22) communicating with the display module (20) on which it is mounted to program the display module (20) to be responsive to the control signal when the sensor identity information in the control signal corresponds to the module identification means (22) to cause the display module (20) to display the associated sensor data information.
