Gauge

This component displays a numeric parameter value as a gauge.

To configure the component:

  1. Apply a data feed. See Applying a data feed.

    In case a parameter data feed included a parameter based on a protocol, a filter feed can be used to filter on a specific element.

    Note

    From DataMiner 10.2.0/10.1.6 onwards, once this component has been configured with data input, the component is available in the feeds section of the data pane so that it can be used as a feed for other components. This way, if the input for this component changes, it will also change for all other components using this component as their feed. However, note that this is only supported for query data input from DataMiner 10.1.7 onwards.

  2. Optionally, customize the following component options:

    • To customize the polling interval for this component, expand the Settings > WebSocket settings section, clear the checkbox in this section, and specify the custom polling interval.

    • In case the component displays more than one item, in the Settings tab, select how the items should be grouped: by parameter, by element, by table index (if relevant) or by all the above together.

    • To customize the value range of the component, in the Settings tab, select Fixed minimum and/or Fixed maximum and specify the custom minimum and/or maximum. This option is available from DataMiner 10.2.0/10.1.6 onwards.

  3. Fine-tune the component layout. In the Component > Layout tab, the following options are available:

    • The default options available for all components. See Customizing the component layout.

    • If parameter data input is used, in the Labels section, you can select whether the parameter name, the element name, the index (for a table parameter) or the value should be displayed in the component.

    • In case the component displays more than one parameter, in the Advanced > Layout section, you can adjust the way the different items are displayed:

      • Layout flow: Determines whether the different items are displayed next to each other or below each other. However, note that when the items are viewed on a small screen, they will always be displayed below each other.

      • Maximum rows per page: Determines how many items can at most be displayed below each other on a single page.

      • Maximum columns per page: Determines how many items can at most be displayed next to each other on a single page.

      Note

      Prior to DataMiner 10.0.10, the component does not support feeds with multiple elements, services, views or redundancy groups. From that DataMiner version onwards, these are supported, but they have a fixed scroll configuration that cannot be adjusted in the Layout tab.

    • In the Style section, the following options are available:

      • Align font sizes: Only available if Design is set to Auto Size. This option causes the font size to be aligned with the font size of other components using this option. If the option is not selected, the text is simply displayed as large as possible within the component.

      • Show progress: Available from DataMiner 10.2.0/10.1.6 onwards. Only available if the component displays an analog parameter. In that case, a darker color within the gauge will indicate the current parameter value.

      • Show minimum: Available from DataMiner 10.2.0/10.1.6 onwards. Select this option to show the minimum value of the value range below the gauge. Note that this value can be customized in the component settings.

      • Show maximum: Available from DataMiner 10.2.0/10.1.6 onwards. Select this option to show the maximum value of the value range below the gauge. Note that this value can be customized in the component settings.

      • Show icon: Determines whether an icon is displayed for the parameter. You can select which icon is displayed in a drop-down list.

        For trended parameters, by default a trend icon is displayed. Clicking this icon will open the corresponding trend graph in the Monitoring app.

      • Design: Available from DataMiner 10.2.0/10.1.6 onwards. Determines how the text in the component is displayed. The options Small and Large show the text in a small and large font size, respectively. If you select Auto size, the font size will automatically be adjusted to fit in the available space.

      • Gauge/Vertical alignment: Only available up to DataMiner 10.1.5. Determines whether the gauge should be aligned at the top or the center of the component.

      • Alignment: Available from DataMiner 10.2.0/10.1.6 onwards. Only displayed if Design is set to Small or Large. Allows you to align the contents of the components to the left, in the center or to the right.
