Description
The NeX Ultrawide series consists of purpose-built, panoramic gauge clusters designed for hot rods, pro-touring builds, and performance vehicles where dashboard real estate is at a premium. Available in compact 6.86″ and full-size 10.3″ panoramic formats, these displays slot cleanly into custom dashes and tight instrument panels without sacrificing the data density modern EFI builds demand.
-
High-Brightness IPS Displays — crisp resolution with high brightness, intense contrast, and wide viewing angles optimized for full sunlight visibility across all screen sizes.
-
Multiple Selectable Layouts — switch on the fly between full-data race screens, classic analog-style gauge faces, and a true blackout/stealth screen with an RPM bar using user-provided background images. Additional layouts will be available for FREE download in the coming weeks.
-
Physical-Look Gauge Rendering — arc gauges, carbon fiber, and chrome aesthetics, paired with data-dense race layouts built for serious performance tracking.
-
Driver-Configurable Gauge Slots — assign any sensor channel to any gauge position via an easy on-screen setup, with no PC required.
-
Integrated Shift Light Bar — programmable RPM thresholds with multi-stage color progression tailored to your engine’s power band.
-
Dedicated Warning Indicators — separate alert zones for critical status changes, operating independently of the main shift lights.
-
Pop-Up Text Notifications — on-screen alerts that surface critical engine vitals the exact moment it matters.
-
Settings That Stick — solid-state configuration survives power cycles, ensuring zero re-tuning or calibration loss between drives.
-
Ships with NexLINK II Included — every NeX Ultrawide unit comes bundled with the brains needed to talk directly to your EFI setup.
NexLINK II — Universal EFI CAN Interface
The brains behind the NeX Ultrawide dash series. NexLINK II bridges your EFI system to the panoramic display, unlocking a full suite of vehicle control and expansion features all from a single, robust module.
CAN Connectivity
-
CAN1 — dedicated ECU interface supporting standard and extended frames for clean engine data streaming.
-
CAN2 — dedicated expansion interface for NexNODE, NexEGT, NexGPS II, and future NexGenEFI peripheral modules.
Vehicle Control
-
Touchscreen Autostart — fire up the vehicle directly from the dash using a secure press-and-hold action, or let the smart firmware logic manage cranking automatically.
-
3 Low-Side Drivers — discrete control outputs for external relays, cooling fans, shift indicators, and custom accessories.
-
2 Programmable Voltage Outputs — 0–5V linear tracking, fixed 5V, fixed 3V, or fully user-defined reference voltages.
Inputs
-
Direct fuel level sender input.
-
Discrete signal detection for high beams, left turn, and right turn signals.
-
Automatic display dimming during night driving if wired into headlight switch.
Power & Protection
-
16V System Compatible — engineered specifically to handle the rugged voltage profiles of modern race cars, hot rods, and high-output charging setups.
-
Brownout Ride-Through — an onboard energy reserve keeps the panoramic display completely alive through heavy starter cranking dips and sudden, momentary voltage drops.
-
Transient Spike Protection — heavy-duty shielding on the power input protects the core modules from harsh automotive electrical noise and alternator feedback.
Performance
-
Dedicated hardware architecture built for simultaneous CAN processing, high-refresh display rendering, data storage, and I/O.
-
Engineered with massive processing headroom to fully support upcoming software updates and future NexGenEFI ecosystem features.
- Data Logging with the NexDAQ Android mobile app. IOS Version is in development also!
