Using node data on Elk keypad

I currently display the outside temperature on my Elk keypad. The temperature comes from my personal weather station which is provided to the ISY via the climate module. Now that the module is being decommissioned, I have setup WeatherPoly to grab the data from my PWS. I have the temperature displaying in the node. However, I'm trying to figure out how I can grab that temperature and put it in a state variable so I can continuously display the current temp on my Elk keypad like I currently do with the climate module. I must be missing something simple?

It is pretty simple, if you WeatherPoly gives you a node for temperature.  In the THEN stanza of your program, you need to select "Variable" in the Action pane.  This will allow you to assign a value to the variable from a variety of different sources, by pressing on the ">" symbol in the action pane.

TempTest - [ID 0080][Parent 00A7]

If
   - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition')
 
Then
        $i.OutsideTemp  = 'Devices / dirNodeServers / WeatherFlow / WeatherFlow / Temperatures' Temperature °F
 
Else
   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
