RPM Meter Integration for Dashboard

Overview

The RPM Meter feature simulates the vehicle's RPM on the dashboard with an analog display. The needle of the RPM meter rotates on the Y-axis, providing a visual representation of the RPM. Please follow the instructions below to adapt your model for the RPM Meter functionality.

Needle Naming and Positioning

1. Needle Naming:

   • Name the needle of your RPM meter as x_rpm.

2. Needle Positioning:

   • Position the needle to point to 0 on the RPM scale.

Example

Suppose you want to configure the RPM meter with a maximum RPM of 6000 and a rotation of 200 degrees to point to the maximum speed:

• Name the needle x_rpm.
• Position the needle to point to 0 on the RPM scale.
• Pass parameters: x_rpm_m6000r200.

By following these steps, you integrate the RPM Meter feature into your model, providing a simulated representation of the vehicle's RPM on the dashboard.

JSONC Configuration Method (Recommended)

Instead of renaming nodes manually, you can configure the data via JSONC, allowing easier tuning and adjustments.

📂 JSONC File Location & Structure

📌 Path: ModelExtras/data/<model_id or model_name>.jsonc
📌 Example File: ModelExtras/data/522.jsonc (for model_ID 522)

{
    "rpmmeter": {
        "maxrpm": 100.0,
        "maxrotation": 100.0
    }
}
