Sensor Library Channel

Overview

Sensor Library Channels provide a library of sensor types that may be selected from.

Info

The sensor library channel will only be available if a sensors.library file is installed in the application’s program files directory.

Sensor Selection

Select a category from the drop-down box and the list of sensors will be filtered according to type (e.g. Pressure or RPM).

Select a sensor in the Sensor List to apply the scaling.

To the right of the sensor list, a description of the sensor will be shown, if available in the library.

Sensor Library File

The sensors.library file can be provided in XML format:
