Default DeviceLink Question

Hi Diadalos Team,

Concerning third party software running physical gauges via DeviceLink , Can you (or anyone) help or tell me who could answer these questions?

Questions concerning DeviceLink

1)"fuel 50 float [kg.]" need to be converted to gallons for US aircraft right? I found this...Gallon is a unit of volume, Kg is a unit of weight (mass).1 Gallon = 3.7854118 liters.Considering a liter weighing 1 Kg (water for instance), then a gallon weighs 3.7854118 Kg. ???????? If it needs to be converted , what would be the conversion formula?

Also,

2) Can you interpret the following lines in the DeviceLink file ? What does "in" and "out" mean ?

temp_oilin 68 float [deg.C] -273.00 +inf ; Into What?
temp_oilout 70 float [deg.C] -273.00 +inf ; Out of What?

Thanks for any help!
