The specialized dashboard channels have some additional features:

Channel definition
Define to color bands for the gauges like this.
start > end : color
- Spaces around delimiters are optional
- For start and end absolute or relative (with % suffix) values allowed, also mixed
- If start is not given, begins from axis starts
- If end is not given, ends on axis end
- Colors can be defined as HTML color names (green, red etc.) or HTML color codes (#123456)
E.g. for a temperature channel (with axis range -30°C ... 30°C) the following are equivalent:
> 0 : blue == -30 > 50% : #0000FF 0 > 20 : green == 50% > 20 : #008000 20 > : red == 20 > 100% : #FF0000
Example
Axis range: -15 °C ... 55 °C
> 0 : #BBF // below zero 0 > 35 : #BFB // ok 0 ... 35°C 35 > 40 : #FFB // warning 35°C ... 40°C 40 > : #FBB // critical above 40°C
