Help creating 6 hour period dashboard

Hi,

I have had Emoncms running for some time on a local Raspberry Pi, but now want to create some dashboards to use the data more effectively.

What I would ideally like to do is a daily dashboard with a bar graph with one bar for usage between midnight and 06:00 am and another bar for usage between 06:00 am and midnight.
Using hte Visualization tool I have managed to create a bar graph showing data in 6 hour bars, but the start points are not fixed times, they show the last six hours and the six hours before that, etc.
Is it possible to create a bar graph for fixed intervals based on times? If the graph has to have four six hour bars per day that’s fine.

Thanks,
David

Have you tried the Graph tool instead? Setting a fixed interval of 21600 seconds should show 6 hourly bars synced with midnight (UTC).

Thanks, Tim, that’s helpful.

Is there a way to embed that in a Dashboard?

Thanks,
David

Yes you can. Give the graph a name, save it and then add it to the dashboard.
