Venus GX tank sensor custom name

Hi there, I have two tank sensors connected to the Venus GX (most recent FW version 2.32). I am programming some logic with Node-Red. The Tank Sensor node tells me: "Multiple tank sensors were found with the same name. You can set a custom name for the device in Venus settings."

I looked through all the venus settings pages via Console on LAN - but nowhere found an option to change the device names of "Generic Tank Input (1)" or "... (2)".

Somebody has an advice?

Thx. in advance,
Th.

Just an idea. Have you tried to change the "Fluid Type" in the Settings menu. See if having two different fluid types makes a difference.

Hello folks,

Is there a response to this question? I have the same question/requirement for the 2 temperature sensor inputs on the VenusGX. Thank you.

Unlike the feature to custom name the devices connected to the VenusGX eg: MPPTs BMVs. The input Temp & Tank input sensors don't seem have this feature?

Regards

I second that! I have two fuel tanks. I would like to be able to change their names to Fuel Starboard and Fuel Port.
