cP to P converter
1 cP = 0.01 P
And 1 P = 100 cP. Centipoise to poise.
Formula
P = cP × 0.01
A reading of 50 cP is 50 × 0.01 = 0.5 P.

About these units
cP (centipoise): The everyday unit for oils and fluids; equal to mPa·s.
P (poise): CGS unit; 100 cP.
Dynamic viscosity (resistance to flow) is not kinematic viscosity (which divides by density). Water is about 1 cP (1 mPa·s) at 20 °C. The reyn is one pound-force second per square inch.
