        Well, BMS has a built in MFD extractor that can display some instruments on a second monitor. Helios will let you display instruments on a separate device like a tablet.

                  you can use Lightning MFD Extractor. It can run as standalone on your BMS computer but can also run as server mode on BMS pc and then as client to show the mud’s (and other stuff) on another pc within the same LAN.

                        You have to use Lightning’s MFDE program in server mode to extract to another computer. (see Post #7) Unless I’m mistaken, the built in extractor will only extract to monitors attached to the same computer.

                            MFDE is a good choice. MFDE enough for make a homemade cockpit
