Hi Mark,


Yes naming those temp inputs is on our whishlist as well.


Switching relays based on temperature or other parameters is a feature we plan to solve with introducing Node-red. Search for node-red here on Community and you’ll find a thread that explains more about it.


Its in good progress; and within a couple of weeks I expect we’ll be looking for people to test it; which will be announced on that thread.

Will these names be reported in VRM as well? Temperature Sensor (23) and (24) just isn't working for our reports. Thanks for the input!

Any chance that having Venus.gx temperature sensors able to display in F is on the wishlist?
