    data being misreported

    I am monitoring a few RoomAlert devices and manually set up the hosts for one. This host has 2 temp probes in refrigerators. If I snmpwalk the OID, it reports back a 4 digit integer, like 3581; this is 35.81 degrees F. In Zabbix, it shows as "3.58 K" for the hosts and on the graphs I created, yet, if I change the graph view to "View as: Values:, the values are correct - it shows 3581. It seems that the data is being misinterpreted but I can't see where or how. It is off by a decimal place (a factor of 10) and I don't know what that "K" is or where it came from. Anyone shed any light?

    Thanks a million! New to Zabbix and couldn't figure out that it was "units" to search. I did try preprocessing but didn't try hard enough; never saw the "Custom Multiplier" option.

      Scroll down to "units". This is all "by the book" and can be configured.
      You can also do some preprocessing and divide that number by 100 and save it with correct number.
