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.
Moved to Modifications Space for non-Victron-supported systems/questions and to bring the question into the attention of other users of non-supported systems. Cheers!
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.

I see there is a version that says it's for a rpi4

I do not see Offline updates only Online updates.
From within the software I see this but get an error.
I still have not been able to get the Name option to display.
In an attempt to learn more I have taken a look at the gui folder files. The file PageDeviceInfo.qml has a section MbEditBox, id I remove the line show: item.valid with // the Name option is displayed. I can type in a name but it is not saved. Does this mean anything?
MbEditBox {
id: name
description: qsTr("Name")
item.bind: Utils.path(root.bindPrefix, "/CustomName")
//show: item.valid
maximumLength: 32
enableSpaceBar: true
}
I notice in this file there are a couple of other instances of "show: item.valid", they also don't appear.
