Dynamically change Gauge Units

[mdpmarcp]

Hi All,

I have searched the boards for a solution to my problem but I have not seen any examples that I understand how to use.

I am receiving temperature data along with a unit of measure (F or C). I would like to change the Gauge units to match. Is this possible and how?

I am really new to this so any examples would be useful.

Thanks

Here is one way

Dynamically change Gauge Units value

The unit field will not take mustache template. but you can use {{speed_var}} {{speed_unit}} in the value format field

example

[{"id":"a005a8da.bc11d8","type":"ui_gauge","z":"c74669a0.6a34f8","name":"","group":"8b5cde76.edd58","order":4,"width":0,"height":0,"gtype":"gage","title":"gauge","label":"","format":"{{payload}}  {{unit}}","min":0,"max":"40","colors":["#00b500","#e6e600","#ca3838"],"seg1":"","seg2":"","x":300,"y":4760,"wires":[]},{"id":"6e1dad61.9521f4","type":"inject","z":"c74669a0.6a34f8","name":"","props":[{"p":"payload"},{"p":"unit","v":"°C","vt":"str"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","payload":"24","payloadType":"num","x":120,"y":4800,"wires":[["a005a8da.bc11d8"]]},{"id":"8b5cde76.edd58","type":"ui_group","name":"","tab":"8f03e639.85956","order":1,"disp":true,"width":"12","collapse":false},{"id":"8f03e639.85956","type":"ui_tab","name":"Home","icon":"dashboard","disabled":false,"hidden":false}]
