3.5 SET MINIMUM/MAXIMUM/SCALING (ROUND GAUGES ONLY)
Both the small and big round gauges have customizable Minimum/Maximum and Scaling to accommodate PIDs of varying ranges. The
Minimum refers to the preferred low end value of the gauge, and the Maximum refers to the preferred high end value of the gauge.
The algorithm in the nGauge rounds user-entered values if necessary. The figure in this section shows the Round Gauge display and
how the Min/Max, Scaling, and Low/High Warnings are implemented.
The labels on the round gauges can be scaled, e.g. RPM x1000. The available scales are:
x1
x10
x100
x1000
When entering a Minimum/Maximum, the value entered must take account for the scaling set for that signal. For example, if desired
Maximum RPM is 8000, and the scale is x1000, the value entered would be “8”. There is a display box which includes the scale when
entering the value for Min/Max to prevent confusion. Note: Low and High Warnings are not affected by scaling and should be entered
as absolute numbers regardless of scale. Warnings are also unaffected by Min/Max changes.
To set a Minimum/Maximum:
1. Tap on the round gauge where a Min/Max is to be set.
2. Tap [Display].
3. Tap on [Minimum] or [Maximum].
4. Type in the desired upper or lower warning level number. The “true” value will be the number entry times the scaling which
appears to the right of the number entry.
5. Tap [√].
6. Tap [Return] to go back to the gauges.
To set the Scaling:
1. Tap on the round gauge where a Scale is to be set.
2. Tap [Display].
3. Tap on [Scaling].
4. Choose the desired scaling option from the list.
5. Once the desired Scale is tapped, the nGauge returns to the gauges with the new scale loaded
