Wind speed gauge

Post by thenook »

On the web interface, what happens when the wind speed exceeds 50mph, does the gauge alter to allow higher speeds.

Thanks

Neil, if I remember correctly (but I'll check) I think the web gauge isn't Orkney-friendly, so doesn't rescale like the one in the Cumulus window. I'll try to fix this at some point.

The attached version of the swf file should re-scale when the wind speed gets above 50 (mph or whatever). Just unzip it and ftp it to your web site.

Hi Steve

Just to let you know the rescale works fine. Gauge now showing to 100mph when wind exceeded 50mph

Cheers

Thanks, Neil. I didn't think to check mine earlier when the wind got above 50, and it's eased a little now so it's just below 50.
