Extra Sensors

Post by AltoonaBound »

Hi,
I'm using version 1.9.3 with a WMR200 with an extra temp/hum sensor. Is there any way to modify the default label used on the rotating extra channel display? I plan on adding some more and it sure would be nice not to have to use a cheat sheet. :)

Yes, use the [ExtraSensorCaptions] section in a strings.ini file - http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/Strings.ini

Thank you sir! Works like a charm. By the way, I like the rotating display for the solar and extra sensors, nice way to get all the info on the screen without needing to know ahead of time how many there are and where to put them. I've been using Weather Display, and oy, what a mess to configure!

Thanks again!
Eric
