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.
