IMU readings
#1
I am a bit confused as to the output from SignalK. 
On the SK input diagnostics I get an understandable reading of 328.xxx deg., but the signalK value from the stream in NR shows a different value/format. How do I use this?

5.7.. radiant = 328 degree you have to convert radiant into degrees

Code:
[{"id":"27f85a97.f0ece6","type":"function","z":"217cab7.d842f54","name":"Rad to Deg","func":"var rad = msg.payload;\nvar deg = rad * 180/3.14;\nmsg.payload=deg;\nreturn msg ;","outputs":1,"noerr":0,"x":796.0000858306885,"y":154.000018119812,"wires":[["a974ffe2.57316"]]}]
here is a function node 
its rad *180/3.14 = deg.

then you will find temp is in kelvin.... temp * 9.0 / 5.0 - 459.67 ...... thats to F °

Why is it in radiant? This makes no sense to me, we should use degrees everywhere.
