Gauge

Last updated: July 10, 2020

Widget size: 1 x 1

This widget displays a graphical representation of a gauge for any point(s) within the database and shows the current value of the point. Up to 6 gauges at once can be displayed within the widget. If there are alarm levels against the point, they will also be displayed within the gauge.

The additional gauges will only be displayed if the user sets PointIDs for each of the POINT1-6 parameters in the Properties section.

Click on any of the gauge graphics and the widget will drilldown to an Engineering Chart of the data for the point.
