Default Air Power Electronic dual air gauge, how does it work??

Hello,

I have bought an Air Power Electronic Dual Air Gauge unit (photo below) from Digitech that came with no instruction manual.
Would appreciate help enabling operate unit. There is a servo socket on one side of the unit which supposed to be the power source. Should i place a separate 4.8/6.0V battery or can i simply plug unit with Y connector on a used RX channel?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

No separate battery needed. Simply use a Y or a spare channel to power the unit with the RX. Current draw is minimal!
Connect one airline to the unit for your gear air storage, one for brakes....

Dany,
As stated above you can either use a Y-Lead or a spare RX port. Any source of RX battery voltage is adequate. It needs no signal to operate only power from the RX battery.
