Extra Sensors in Block StationData: Temp and ºF

Post by MonyMony » Fri Aug 09, 2024 1:40 pm

Hello All,

I am user of the customized Station Data Block that was modified to show Extra Sensor data. That I am noticing is that when I add in another temperature sensor, that the data is only showing in Celcius and ignoring the display units of the rest of the page (by default ºF). In looking at the code I am not seeing anything obvious to explain why this is happening as I see the logic in the code that should be running the conversion.

Does anyone have any ideas where to look to get this extra sensor data to properly convert and display in Fahrenheit?

Thanks!

Many months later and I have realized this issue was all 'user error'. If you are using this Extra Sensor modification to the StationData block, make sure to read the instructions for setting up. For the label, if you follow the instructions and put a "T" then everything will work properly and convert the temperature entries to ºF.
