I am trying to see the distance data on the LCD, in:
offset 6064 8bit float
result for example 5418 meters

I'm trying to convert to Nautical Miles
$ / 0.000539957

but it does nothing, it does not give the result, I have tried with a point or a comma for the decimal.
If the meters I pass them to kilometers
$ / 1000 this if it works
Do you know why it can be???

Cheers

First question is.... WHAT does not work....

but it does nothing, it does not give the result,

Is there a Error ( Mobiflight Stops and give you a error message in the Logging )
OR
Is your problem still that the Result is a wrong number ?


Basicly your Formula is wrong, too....

1 Meter is 0,000539957 Nautica Miles. So to get Nautical miles from Meters in your logic you must MULTIPLY ....
$*0.000539957 would be correct here....

Much more easy is inverted....
1 Nautical Mile are 1852,000674128 Meters..... We not need to talk about mm in those distances.... So simply 1Nm = 1852m
So simply $/1852


LAST NOTE:
Mobiflight execute (behind the Transform) just full Numbers. So in your example 5418 Meters Divide through 1852 result in 2,9254859~ Nautical Miles.
BUT Mobiflight will execute just "2" into the Compare or to a Display!
If you need more accurate values ( and pretty sure you need 1-2 Decimal parts like 2,92 in that case) then you need to multiply the result !

For example Value 5418 Meters $/1852 = 2,9254 Shown as "2" ..... If you use $/1852*100 =292,54 Shown as "292" .

It is true that I am confused, I have to rest a little from hitting the button box hahaha
thanks ...
