KIP Tank Contents
I’m trying to display fuel and water tank quantities in litres rather than percentage full. Given that the linear gauge has the option to show maximum and minimum values I would have thought it possible to display quantities knowing the percentage. Eg. If the tank is 0 to 400 litres and the signal is 0.5 or 50% then can the display be made to show 200 litres? If it requires writing code or more complicated stuff then it’s probably beyond me at this stage. I’m hoping it can be done within KIP.

Hi Bob, I don't think it can do this out the box. Kip is able to covert units such as K to C or F but not show a different value from a table. Have you done anything with Node-red?
