Mdiaz380 Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 Hi, I'm building a home cockpit and I am trying to show in an LCD the %value of the Engine Torque and the Temperature. I'm looking for the values you can see on the cockpit gauges. I have been looking to the value of DataRefs (with DataRefTool) and the values you I see doesn't match. Can anybody help?

JGregory Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 Since you posted in the Saab forums can I assume you want the Saab Datarefs? Or, do you want X-Plane Datarefs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mdiaz380 Posted November 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 Great! I will try them tomorrow. thanks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mdiaz380 Posted November 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 No, it doesn't work. The number are different to the gauges. Just check the gauges and the DataRef values: For Temp_left, the dataref gives 1136 but the gauge shows 620. The same with Torque, the dataref shows 144, and the gauge shows aprox 28% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGregory Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 (edited) The Dataref unit of measure for the temperature is in Fahrenheit. The Dataref unit of measure for the torque is in Newton Meters. These values are keyframed in Blender to produce the correct gauge readings. There are no Datarefs that have the Celsius or % Torque values. Edited November 14, 2019 by JGregory 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mdiaz380 Posted November 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Perfect, with that I can properly do some maths and show the same values on my cockpit THANKS A LOT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
