I know this is an outdated version of ignition, and if this isn’t true in ignition 8+ please let me know. I was wondering if it was possible to bind a property of the integer class to the EasyChart Realtime Range Unit. The easy chart ignition manual states this is an integer value, but the value of 1 binds to “seconds” while no other integer binds to any of the other units that are selectable in the unit (i.e. despite it being a drop down menu 2 does not bind to a value of minute 3 does not bind to a value of hours etc.).

It is always seconds. The unit control is purely for visuals. Use multiples of 60 when minutes, multiples of 3600 when hours.
