Realtime gauges v1.0.0.2 available for download

[steve]

OK everyone, Telerik have got back to me regarding the problem many of you are having. They say the problem occurs on "old style PCs with slow processors". Their words, not mine, so if you feel your PC is being insulted don't blame me!

Anyway, they have given me a workaround, so please try:

Seems to work, try again later (dual core < 6 mths old )

Mine is a older one but it is a Opteron 185 with 2 gigs of memory. I don't think this is a slow processor. Anyway the workaround is working on this end as well.

Hi Steve,

The new gauges are very impressive. However I notice the update period on your link is 10 seconds. As the Davis VP2 can update wind data every 2.5 secs is that update period adjustable or fixed?

I still need to organise a website so I won't be using them just yet.

Adjust here <interval>10</interval> in CumulusRealtime.xml
http://sanday.org.uk/weather/CumulusRealtime.html is updating every 5 secs.
Mine http://www.aadal.org/weather/c_realtime ... ltime.html update 10 secs.

Thanks. What's the minimum time interval?

I test mine on 1 and 3 secs but then get 5 secs, seams like 5 secs is the min.

Just update to 1.0.0.3 and now mine is loading fine here without refresh F5

Thanks. This one is for Steve. The temperatures don't need updating every 5 seconds - just the wind info. Is it possible to configure what gauges are refreshed every x seconds or does the whole lot get done?

I ask because some service providers may get a bit tetchy about the amount of data in these frequent updates.

[steve]

The minimum is 1 second, but as you realise the data won't update more frequently than 3 seconds or so (with a VP2). I have mine set to 5 seconds. It would be quite a bit more complicated to provide different settings for different gauges - and for it to make sense there would also have to be separate realtime.txt files to match.

Thanks Steve. 5-second updates should be fine. And yes, I appreciate the complication of sending different data at different times. Still felt the need to ask the question of course.

I have an observation on the new gauge window. When the full screen option is pressed the scroll bar is still required to see the scrolling data at the bottom of the window. I'm running on a laptop with a res of 1280*800. Would that be the reason?

And once full screen is chosen the button text should say "revert" or something similar. Sorry to be picky.

Notice the scroll bars on most sites including mine, found this site and no scroll bars on page. Any explanations?
