Simple number instrument
A rectangular instrument displaying a single numerical value. Allows to select formatting and unit conversion from the SI units used by Signal K to usual units used in navigation.

Timeout |
Timeout in seconds. If the set numeber of seconds passes since the last update for the Signal K key displayed by the instrument pass without receiving an update, the value is considerd timed out and is replaced by dashes. |

Data smoothing |
Degree of data smoothing. The value between 0 and 9 configuring how smooth the transition between values received from the data stream should be. O means no smoothing, the latest value received from the data stream is directly displayed. Values between 1 and 9 regulate how aggressive the smoothing algorithm is. 1 means the latest received value has 90% influence on what is displayed, 10% the earlier values. Lower values are suitable for data possibly changing fast in real world and the sensors with steady output, like depth. 9 means the latest received value has only 10% influence on the displayed value and 90% the earlier values. This makes the transition between values very smooth, not fluctuating wildly, but means a signifiant delay in reaching close to the actual value received from the sensor. Higher values are suitable for data not changing fast in real world and coming from sensors suffering big fluctuation coming from boat movement and other factors, for example wind strength and direction. |
