System information

Semi-Circular Gauge
This element represents a semi-circular gauge in a horizontal orientation. It allows you to display information for a
Metasys item (for example, zone temperature and zone temperature setpoint) within a semi-circular dial and to send
a command to the item. The minimum range is specified on the left and the maximum range is specified on the right.
A value box appears in the center of the gauge. The analog value needle is positioned according to the current value
of the bound item.
Figure 23: Semi-Circular Gauge
The Semi-Circular Gauge element has the following runtime characteristics:
• It may display the current value of the bound item within a value box.
• It may display the status of the bound item as the color of the analog bar.
• It may display the unit of measurement used for the bound attribute value.
• It may display the upper and lower ranges of the bound item within the gauge.
• It displays a tooltip showing the textual value of the bound item and its status.
• It represents the current value of the bound item by the position of the needle. For binary items, when the value
is False, the needle moves to 0, and when the value is True, the needle moves to 1. State 1, State 2, and State
3 values are represented as needle positions of 1, 2, and 3 (respectively).
• It displays the maximum value defined for the gauge if the current value of the bound item or attribute is above
the maximum value. The needle is pinned to the rightmost position and the actual value appears in the value
box.
• It displays the minimum value defined for the gauge if the current value of the bound item or attribute is below
the minimum value. The needle is pinned to the leftmost position and the actual value appears in the value box.
• It displays a User Actions Panel (with a right-click) when displayed within the Site Management Portal, SCT, or
the Ready Access Portal. See User Actions Panel.
