NI created a tutorial on adding data to the dashboard. https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-14704

The major recommendation I would make is that instead of reading the data from the sensor the build dashboard data vi as shown, I would read the data where you want it (either teleop or periodic tasks) and save it in a global variable, and then read the global variable in the build dashboard data vi.
