I am not sure if the DS1 will directly read cells via a standard KISS kidney..

Mine came complete with a replacement kidney that has some sort of electronics build in and three separate ports - all reading the three cells.

Port C would take the Subsea HUD - very simple HIGH/OK/LOW signals and much cheaper than the shearwater one.

Port B can be connected to the DS1 or a computer, but the DS1 can only control the HUD from this port.

Port A can have either computer or DS1 without HUD, but the cable angle is a bit pants to get past the QC turret...

You also have another option to connect the shearwater..
Keep the tripple KISS displays and connect the shearwater via the 2nd O2 port on the KISS and a 4th cell in the counterlung.Have fun fettling.
