Analog Instrument Cluster / Car Dashboard M124

Description
Customisable analogue instrument cluster for 1x3 monitors





Features:
  • Speedometer, Rev counter, temperature gauge, fuel gauge, volt meter / auxiliary dial
  • Configurable speed units, dial ranges, display info, instrument colour, dial behaviour etc.
  • 6x3 maximum, 2x1 minimum MC size
  • 6x1 invisible MC
  • optional internal blinker logic
  • warning lights
  • analogue needle damping
  • 1x3 monitor only (hard-coded pixel positions)
  • includes an optional XML monitor with bezel made by MUGGLIS




Default composite input channels:

Numbers:
1: Speed, 2: RPS, 3: Engine temperature, 4: Fuel level, 5: Battery charge, 5: Generator warning light input

Bools:
1: Ignition, 2: Lights, 3: High beam, 4: Handbrake, 5: Hazard lights, 6: Indicator left, 7: indicator right

Caution:
If you want to use a mix of composite and standard logic nodes:
Be aware that Bools get OR'ed together and numbers summed, so disconnect every composite read that might have an interfering signal on the corresponding composite channel.

When using a modular engines composite output to read temperature directly and using speed and rps as standard nodes for example, you need to disconnect composite number channels 1 and 2 like so:





Standard MC

Resize the MC to fit the logic nodes you want, not all nodes have to be used:



I connected every logic node of the MC to levers and buttons so you can try out its features.



Invisible MC

The inside of the yellow blocks marks where the MC is placed. You can make the MC smaller, but do not increase its length. If you make it 2 or more blocks long it will fail to update and delete the MC.



Documentation



1: High beam
  • toggled by logic input
2: Generator warning light
  • Set property to 0 if you are not using this feature. Illuminates if the corresponding number input falls below the property number. You can use this as a custom warning light, a generator warning light is just one example.
3: None
4: Engine warning light
  • Illuminates if engine temperature exceeded 115°C. Toggle ignition to reset
5: None
6: None
7: Handbrake
  • Toggled by logic input
8: None
9: Lights
  • Toggled by logic input
10: None

Dial Types:

"Electric": The instruments will perform a self-test when ignition is toggled on and fall to zero when ignition is off

"Mechanical": The speedometer and rev counter will always work, the digital readout and the other 3 dials only when ignition is on



If you want to publish a creation that uses this dashboard, I'd appreciate a shout-out or link. Thank you!

Thanks to MUGGLIS for the suggestions, custom monitor bezel and testing

Have fun! <3

@SPunknown What are you struggling with? The customisation options are accessed via the select tool if that's what you're looking for.

I've been trying to use this dashboard for about 30 minutes and can't seem to figure out how to set it up. Can anyone help?

@⟡2Fort Is ∞⟡ 215 kph is 60 m/s. Seemed reasonable for SW cars.

Why does the speed gauge default to 215?

Have just found it. Awesome!!!
"WHOLESOME! ;-)

flori1994 Sure, you can just feed the dials whatever you want them to display. RPS could be battery level, temperature could be ambient etc.. The layout and the labels are meant for diesels though, so it might not all fit perfectly.

Can this be used for an electric car?
Bassalicious  [author] 28 Oct, 2023 @ 7:15am 
@Freddo Sure, just set the MC property to "MPH"
Freddo 28 Oct, 2023 @ 6:40am 
Is it possible to convert it to use MPH as a speed unit?

I wanna use it but idk why it won't work for me aha
