Steelseries Gauges for WD

A couple more questions…

My gauges only seem to update once a minute but I understand the clientraw data is uploaded every 3 seconds. How do I get a truly “live” experience?

Also, this will be child’s play to many of you in here so please bear with me… What html code would I use to insert one live wind gauge into the sidebar of my website? So that clicking this takes me to my main gauges page?

Thanks in advance,

Simon

My gauges only seem to update once a minute
This can be changed in the file gauges.js

Playing around with this and works in Fire Fox but will not work in I.E. Anyone else having this problem?

Thanks, Doug

Which IE, I think that being HTML5 then it has to be IE 9 or above, maybe IE 8, I’m not sure. :wink:

I’m running I.E. 8. Does this mean that this script will only run with I.E. 9? Or can it be modified to run with older versions?

Thanks, Doug

Maybe that it’s IE9 and up then.
I updated to IE10 last week and it works OK for me on that so maybe try updating. You should get it through standard Windows Update.

Thanks weatherbee, maybe I’m missing something but I can’t see that setting in there. Can you help?

Thanks,

Line 16 for me in guages.js
var g_count                 = 5;   //download data counter (secs, default 60)

Thanks Doug,

Can’t think how I missed that!

Would there be too much editing to make the gauges work with the existing clientraw.txt
I’m currently uploading?

I’ve been working on a page that combines the ajax page and the dials. Not perfected yet but what do you think?

Impossible, most of them are tags who are not in the clientraw.

BTW guys these gauges are html5 only, so make a redirect for older browsers (IE8) to your old page.

Ah ok. So I’m confused then.

{"ver":"5","date":"<#date format=hh:nn>","temp":"<#temp>","tempTL":"<#tempTL>".......

This is the realtimegaugesT.txt file that came with the download. Which do I change in this file and then save as a
2nd file to upload in realtime?

Sorry, I just need a push in the right direction. :oops:

Go back on to Jacco’s website and download the file called “customclientrawlocal.txt” at the bottom of his download page. :wink:

Tony,

Go here http://www.hetweerinruinen.nl/steelseries-gaugs-for-wd and download the customclientrawlocal.txt. Put in in your web folders and then go to the realtime setup page and set it up to update there.

wetherbee…you are reading my mind/1 http://stillweather.com/index2.php

Jacco…thanks for the tip about html5 that’s a nice solution!

Jack

Jack nice job. Yours is much better balanced than mine.
How did you get the graphs to work?

How did you get the graphs to work?

Thanks, and they really are not yet, look at the data, it’s wrong. Working on that though! Jacco posted something about it earlier, going to look at that now.

Jack

Jack,

Those pages you’ve created are beautiful! When you’ve figured out how to implement the graphs properly, would you be kind enough to write a tutorial here, for web novices like me?

Thanks,

Simon

Thanks Guys. I’m getting there. http://cnyweather.com/gauges-ssT.htm

Barometer is updating in inches but the gauge shows in hPa

In the clientrawlocal.txt change hPa to in, the units are hardcoded :wink:
