Raspberry Pi 4 CPU Temperature Element

The CPU temperature element is used to read the temperature of the Raspberry Pi 4 CPU. This element is only available within Raspberry Pi 4 projects.

The CPU temperature is a sensor element that can be imported into the Element Toolbox through the Add Element button located in the toolbox from the Embedded tab. Raspberry Pi 4 projects have this element imported by default.
