 ### Key data structures
 
-- `GaugePins` — hardware pin mapping per gauge (dir, step, enable, active-high/low polarity flags, `ledOrder` string). Declared `constexpr` so `TOTAL_LEDS` can be computed from it at compile time. Configured in the `gaugePins[]` array at the top.
+- `GaugeConfig` — compile-time config per gauge: pin assignments (dir, step, enable, polarity flags) and motion defaults (minPos, maxPos, homingBackoffSteps, maxSpeed, accel, homingSpeed). All gauges are defined in `gauge_config.h` as `constexpr GaugeConfig gaugeConfigs[]`. `GAUGE_COUNT` is derived automatically from the array length.
-- `Gauge` — per-gauge runtime state: position, target, velocity, accel, homing state machine, sweep mode.

-### LED strip
-
-Two LED strips are driven: main backlight/status LEDs on `LED_DATA_PIN` (currently 22) and dial indicator LEDs on `INDICATOR_LED_DATA_PIN` (currently 36). The serial protocol still exposes one logical per-gauge LED segment: `0-2` backlight, `3-4` indicators, `5-6` status. `gaugePins[i].ledOrder` is a per-LED type string (one char per LED, `'G'` = GRB-ordered, `'R'` = RGB-ordered) and its length defines the logical LED count. `TOTAL_LEDS`, `TOTAL_MAIN_LEDS`, and `TOTAL_INDICATOR_LEDS` are computed at compile time. Per-gauge logical and physical offsets are cached in `setup()`. LED writes dirty only their physical strip, and the loop flushes each FastLED controller independently with `showLeds()`.

 ### Adding gauges
 
-1. Increment `GAUGE_COUNT`.
+1. Open `Gaugecontroller/gauge_config.h` and append one row to `gaugeConfigs[]`.
-2. Add a `constexpr GaugePins` entry to `gaugePins[]` (including the `ledOrder` string — one char per LED, `'G'` for GRB or `'R'` for RGB).
+2. `GAUGE_COUNT` updates automatically — no other changes needed.
-3. Tune `maxPos` and `homingBackoffSteps` in the corresponding `Gauge` default or at runtime.
-4. `TOTAL_LEDS`, `gaugeLedOffset[]`, and `gaugeLedCount[]` update automatically — no manual changes needed.
