    Is there a variable I can call to display the cabin temperature in Celsius?
    I know there is a button in the cabin, which I have pressed but ideally I'd like to add it to my StreamDeck.

    Currently I have (L:var_cabinTemperature, number) which displays in Fahrenheit
    and also use (A:AMBIENT TEMPERATURE,Celsius) for outside.

    I know it can be converted with math but I'm not quite sure how I would modify to the L:var to do that.

    I'm using the plugin Pilots Deck

    Any help on an existing value I have missed or adding math to the current would be really appreciated.

    Thanks
    Simon

      From the manual it looks like you should have L:var_CabinTempUnitMode. If toggling that doesn't change the cabin temp LVar to Celsius, what does the code you programmed the StreamDeck to show it with look like? It's probably as simple as adding the F --> C conversion right there on the same line, but I don't have a StreamDeck to know what it looks like.

        That variable will always contain Fahrenheit, I'm afraid. Hopefully someone else will chime in with the solution for the StreamDeck, because I would like to think that it would be extremely easy to subtract 32 and multiply by 0.5555.

          The only options I get are in the attached image.
          I can scale values but as you said there is more math that that.

          If I can find no solution, I may just make a coloured gauge with manual Celsius markers, and map those to hidden Fahrenheit values. To be honest its only really to adjust the cabin heat, so not really mission critical.

            Have mocked up this for now, which is working

              From digging through some PilotsDeck documentation, is there an Offset available for the type of gauge you're drawing? Between the Offset and the Scalar I think you'd be good to go.

                That did it! Thanks so much.
                A regular display did not have this option that I could see, but the action designer did, and after I worked out I had to apply the offset before the scale...its all good.

                I really appreciate you taking the time to look at the Pilots Deck guide, I'm pretty new to this and keep missing the obvious.
