Catmandu13 Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 I'm just starting my first project with the V130 and I'm doing a monitor with 2 temp sensors and a pressure, I've gotten the screen set to do calibration, scales and alarms, but for some reason I'm getting hung up on using the data table/string library. Which to use, and how to use them. All I'm looking to do is display my current value, but put either a F or C next to it dependent on an MB. But other than having 2 static text displays and hiding one of them. I haven't gotten it to work. Is there a good example of how to do something that simple somewhere?

MVP 2023 Joe Tauser Posted June 4, 2011 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 First, the data tables and string library are completely different animals and can't be lumped together with a "/". I'd suggest you take the time to read all the pages of the Help on these topics before working with one of these if it's your first project. Use a "Binary Text" object to display F or C based on an MB. Joe T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catmandu13 Posted June 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I had gotten the Data table to work in order to display it by the time this posted, but Binary Text is defiantly the way to go! I must have overlooked that one. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
