I've got 6 gauges that I'm trying to realtime update using the "dataStreamUrl" method and it doesn't seem to work with dial ID's despite instructions to the contrary. I have a php page that outputs the following string of data that I want to use to update 6 gauges. The page outputs the following string:
&pvvolt=18.33&pvamp=0&pvpower=0&batvolt=13.93&batamp=0&batpower=0&chargertemp=21.21&battemp=20.16
According to the documentation I should be able to set "id": "pvvolt" in the dial section that it should pick out the 18.33 value from the string and populate it. But it doesn. it only works if I change &pvvolt= to &value= (and hide the rest of the string).
is it possible to update several gauges from 1 output string or am I going about this wrong?
the code from my test page is below this line. the "id": "pvvolt" is in the correct location so I don't know why it doesn't behave. help?
