Default ultra gauge question

I bought the Ultra Gauge before the Real Gauge came out. To those who have the Ultra, I have a question. I don't see a gauge for oil pressure. Is that worded a different way, surely it is there somewhere. I do see 'oil temperature'. Also do you guy's unplug the U Gauge, if the car is going to set for a few days, or a week? I know it does still use power from the battery. The default alarm for water temp. is 250, I think I'll set mine to 220, as I;ve never seen it rise to that. In your opinion what other gauges would be important to look at, for this particular car?........Many Thanks!

The XK8/R does not have an oil pressure sensor....it has a low oil pressure switch only. Ultragauge has no way to get oil pressure data because it simply is not available.

RealGauge with the oil pressure option adds an oil pressure sensor.
