GB AM Gauges

How to Make Your Own

  • Start by dragging out AM|Gauge from the components menu
  • Resize the gauge to the desired size

  • Next were going to put the AM|Gauge in a group
  • A simple way of doing this is by dragging out another component
    • Drag out the button component and select both components
    • Right click and select create group
    • Then delete the other component, leaving only the AM|Gauge in the group

  • Next were going to add a tag on the group so we can access it from the program
  • To do this, click on the group, and a tag icon will appear in the corner
  • Click on the tag icon, and type the name of your tag in the box and click the checkmark icon
  • You can name your tag whatever you want, as long as it matches the program target filter in the Program

  • To add a program, go to the programs menu on the left side
  • Click the + icon on the bottom left of the programs menu
  • In the Program Editor, type in the name of the tag applied to the group in the Program Target Filter
  • If you would like to name your program, replace New Program under Program Name with what you would like to name your program

  • Next click the three dots in the top right and select variables
  • This will open the program vars panel, click the + icon on the right side
  • A newVariable will appear, click on the gear icon that appears as you hover over the newVariable
  • On the first line type point and the second line type id==$virtualPointRef
  • Click the gray save button to save the variable
  • Last, copy and paste the code below into the main part of the program, and click the blue save button

myPoints=data.result.toObj();
