    Starting playing w/ HPT again, after update LTFT bar gauge issue

    HPT.jpgPreviously my LTFT bar gauges were set with limits of 0 to -10 and the gauge would read from the bottom up. Meaning that as my LTFT would get more negative the bar would go up from the bottom (0). After installing the 2.24 update It goes from the top down. Even is I reverse the min/max location. Another oddity is if I set the max to -10 and min to 0 I get a red alert for my range of 0-15 indicating level 3 (red) It is hard to explain but I have a screen shot showing where I changed the mix/max location. One LTFT w/ a max of -10 and a min of 0 and the other LTFT reversed w/ a 0 min and -10 max. You'll notice it won't even display any data for LTFT Bank2 (Right -1.6 figure) when I do this. Not sure if something has changed in the newer versions and this isn't possible anymore but perhaps someone can assist

    Anyone? A bit frustrating there is no support # and also emails seem to go unanswered. I also have a basic licensing question I cannot seem to get answers. What is the SOP to get questions about HPT answered??

    I don't think you can have a max that is less than min.

    Thanks Keith, my older version worked this way which is why I asked. I just wanted the LTFT bar gauge to rise from the bottom as at it went more negative.

    It's a very convenient way of displaying data w/o taking up a bunch of real estate. As far as I know round gauges are the only other option and to have and they are very small and hard to read unless they are fairly large.

    I find the graph to be the best. Just my opinion though.

    I could see the benefit if you need to take a quick glance at a value while your driving, but I usually just wait to review the log or Im glancing at a histogram. I usually always use the graph because I like to be able to overlay and correlate data against time.

    I think it should be renamed.

    Yeah I use the chart while not driving but when driving and glancing I like the gauge display and the bar gauges work well for basic functions.
