CLT gauge in %?

Post by andy198712 »

Hello,

I've got MS1 2.2, running TS, not the 3 yet but the one just before that.

Why does my gauge read in % and not in degrees C? how do i change that?
i did a bit of search but nothing showed up
Cheers

That would be set either in your firmware ini or when the dash was created/edited in designer mode.

What firmware and what dash are you using?

Ok, MS1 Extra.
stock gauge cluster that came with TS.... worth trying others? (if thats what you mean by dash?)
Which stock one, there are a number? The Default 8 Dial?
That is generated from the ini, but if there was a percent in there, seems li like we would have noticed. I don't think much has changed with MS1 in 8 or 9 years.

If you go into Designer mode, you can change pretty most anything about the gauge, including the title and units text.

Yeah ms1.

Stock 8 dail.

So what does that gauge read in? I've worked out I can change the text but I could change the text to F or *C but what is the gauge actually reading, *c or...? If that makes sense? It's using a GM Clt sensor.

Thanks for your help!

Weather they are in C or F depends on what you are set to in Project Properties.
F is default.

Press CTRL+P, the look on the settings tab.

The ini with TS looks like it is showing them fine as C & F. I might need an export of your Car Project to see what is up.
