Node-Red Temperature Sensor Node

Using Node-Red v2.6-large-image-7 on a RPi3 B+ with an mcp3208 ADC.

When I try to use the Temperature Sensor node I'm unable to select either sensor.


I get this message in the "Edit Temperature Sensor node" box:

Multiple temperature sensors were found with the same name. You can set a custom name for the device in Venus settings.

I am unable to see how to change the name of the sensor, any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,

On your Venus device:

go to Device List --> Temperature sensor you want to rename --> Device --> Name

You can enter a name for the sensor there.
