Red markers on Wind gauge

Post by sutne »

I have noticed two red markers on my wind gauge. One is at the highest gust, the other is always on 12 m/s.

When I look at Hans’ site the red markers are highest average and highest gust.

Is it because of m/s there is something wrong at my site?

Well noticed :)
The High Gust marker is a standard gauges marker (as is e.g.the high rain rate marker).

During my modifications of the gauges library I found that it was also possible to have the red leds flash when the value of the gauge is going above a certain threshold (not a standard gauges feature) so I added parameters to the website section to account for the visibility of the gauge led and for the threshold value above which the led would start flashing. However the visibility of the led is quite poor (maybe a bit more fluorescent red colour should be used).

So in summary: 1) the outer red marker is the High mark of the standard gauges and 2) the inner red marker is the alarm value indicator - specific for CumulusUtils - of that specific value. The idea is that you set the values to your own requirements for alarm values. So it is not only about wind.

The corresponding parameters are:

Code: Select all

ThresholdTempVisible=true
ThresholdTempValue=30
ThresholdHumidityVisible=true
ThresholdHumidityValue=80
ThresholdWindVisible=true
ThresholdWindValue=40
ThresholdRainVisible=true
ThresholdRainValue=20
ThresholdRRateVisible=true
ThresholdRRateValue=10
ThresholdUVVisible=true
ThresholdUVValue=10
Hope this clarifies.
Hans
