DashLogic display controller for ZR1
DashLogic is the most advanced way of displaying vehicle data to date. There is nothing to install, no programing, no changes to your vehicle in any way. Simply plug in the DashLogic device to your vehicles OBD-II port and DashLogic turns your factory dashboard display into a fully customizable gauge canvas. See all of the data your vehicle has to offer on your Driver Information Center or Head-Up Display. DashLogic doesn't stop there, you can also customize visual and audible alerts that you set to any condition for any vehicle value, fully customizable by you. Just in case your car doesn't have a sensor for a value you would like to watch, DashLogic also has two auxiliary inputs so you can add up to two aftermarket sensors to be viewed on your DIC or HUD as well as be used for alerts. The DashLogic alerts system is a very advanced tool, this is not your run of the mill type of simple alert that only watches one value. DashLogic will take into account several conditions for one alert, all of those conditions fully customizable by you.
Here are some ZR1 specific PIDs that are available in addition to all of the normal Corvette PIDs

What sensors could I expect from factory on the zr1? This is really interesting. Can i still use my HUD in street mode with that plugged in?

compatibility
Looks like a great product. 
Is it compatible with the Dashtronix radar display unit that also plugs into the OBD-II port if a splitter is used? My Dashtronix is the model that displays the Valentine 1 information on both the HUD and DIC. If there is a way to make that work I'd like to order a unit.

It is not DashCommand, DashCommand is an app for a smartphone, this unit is standalone with no other hardware needed. You can put as many PIDs to be viewed as the display allows characters. 20 characters on the DIC, 16 charaters on the HUD and two lines on the HUD. We use the lock button to cycle pages, so you can have different PIDs for 8 pages of display data, then there are 3 profile switches that you can set to different PIDs on each profile. All 3 profiles can have different layouts and different alerts set. You can toggle DashLogic to only show on HUD, or only show on the DIC, that toggle is done from in the car so you can switch whichever display you want back to OEM display conditions while driving.
For an example of what can be displayed, you could lay out the DIC like this:
"Intake Air Temp 112*" which is 20 characters
or you could add a couple PIDs if you shorten the description like this:
"IAT 112* ECT 202*"
or if you wanted, you could just not use the IAT or ECT identifier at all and add 4 PIDs to the line. It is very easy to fit 4 PIDs on the HUD and 2 PIDs on the DIC for each page with acronyms and unit values shows, then you can do that for each page, so 48 PIDs per profile, and we allow 10 alerts to be set per profile.
I did some videos yesterday to show how the alarms work. In this video, I set up the alert to 3500RPMs, it is set to chime as well as display "RPM LIMIT!! and Corvette Forum" on the HUD only during the alarm.
A single variable alert is neat, but it is impossible to set a wideband O2 alert if all you are watching is just the number. We took it farther on alerts to fix this, we allow calculations to be made for the alerts so you can actually watch for a lean out or fuel pressure drop while racing.
For this video I set the alert condition to "Load over 50% and RPM over 2500rpm and Speed over 35mph". I set the DIC to show Load so you could see it, and you can watch speed and RPM on the cluster. I set it to a silent alert with the visual text "You had me at ALARM", you can see that all 3 conditions must be met or the alarm is not triggered.
Sorry it was raining and the wipers sound horrible on the glass

Yeah but, what's the answer to the question?

Everything seen in the screen shots is included. Everything on the list is available, with the exception that some only PIDs only work on a ZR1 and obviously the automatic trans PIDs don't work on a manual trans, but all PIDs are available on every device. If there is something you want that you don't see, let me know and we can add it. Even in the future if you find we forgot something, you can do a firmware update connected to your computer and we can add them. We have one PID in there that does Alcohol % that the user "Mourat" requested, it is an HPTuners PID that was added to his vehicle through HPTuners. We are expandable.

I don't know very much about the Valentine display, but I would think you could tell DashLogic not to display on the HUD and that would work. The big question would be how the controls are set up, if we use the same vehicle buttons for configuration or page changing, that would be a conflict and not work well.
Would you please check it out and perhaps chat with them to determine compatibility? Thanks very much.

We use the vehicle MAP for boost, so we can go as high on the boost as your vehicle can read from the PCM. We allow you to add two 0-5 volt aftermarket sensors, so your wideband will work for sure, you would only need to make sure the EGT has an analog output.
