Create a gauge

The gauge is a semi-circle with a needle and range of values that represents a traditional meter or dial.
Use the gauge object to display a control’s value at the data source. The gauge’s needle moves around the dial to show the changing value. You can configure thresholds for the gauge to alert the operator to error conditions.
To create a gauge:
  1. In
    FactoryTalk View Studio
    , in the
    Graphics
     editor, select
    Objects
     >
    Gauge and Graph
     >
    Gauge
    . You can also click the gauge icon in the toolbox.
  2. Drag the mouse to position and draw a rectangle the general size and location you intend the gauge to be.
  3. In the
    Gauge Properties
    dialog box, in the tabs, specify how the gauge looks, its values and thresholds, and its tags.
