      I've never used a Carbmate, just the old timer two vacuum gauge set up. But your
      question doesn't care which gauge type is used.
      
      Vacuum goes up as throttle is closed and vice versa. An easy way to recall this
      is to remember that the engine is a pump sucking air through the carburetor.
      The more closed the throttle, the more suction in the intake manifold. Vacuum
      is a measure of this suction.
      
      To get a particular vacuum gauge reading to go down, increase the throttle on that
      carb.
      To get a particular vacuum gauge reading to go up, decrease the throttle on that
      carb.

Understanding the Carbmate
From:

      Tom,
      
      Thanks for your reply.  I understand the relationship of throttle to vacuum
      - But still am confused as to which carb I should adjust AND when the LED is
      skewed left of right does this mean higher or lower vacuum ON WHICH SIDE.
      I've decided to use the right Carb as the Master as the cable run is very
      short and probably less chance of error.  OR question to those who are
      running a Rotax 912ULS am I again being anal about adjusting when only one
      led out???
      
      Phil
