Bug: Sensor Value a Writeable Field in v3.50~24

In v3.50~25 the tank sensors display the “Sensor value” when attached to a “GX Tank 140”.

My understanding is that this value is used for calibration of the sensor min/max/etc points, and displays the current value of the sensor.

When you click on it, it shows a box to increase/decrease the value.

Shouldn’t this be read only?

Hi @zindello ,

Thank you for the report, we’ll look into that.

While you’re there is any chance we can get the granularity of this (and the min/max settings) increased to 2 or 3 (2 would work, 3 would be better) decimal places instead of one?

Right now I have to use dbus-spy to setup my sensors and it feels like it should be something in the UI.

Yes, that was on the list already as well. 3 decimals seems a bit excessive though. Without double checking I’d think that that is at least well beyond the capabilities of that hardware.

Its a 12bit adc, is max 4092 steps from 0 to 10V; probably a bit less.

anyway, we’ll test and make a change!

Thanks! That would be awesome.

Using dbus-spy I can see the resolution goes down to 3 decimal points.

To get accurate resolution on mine I need to go to 3 decimal places. It reads the third point in .005v steps.

What would actually be even cooler would be a “sync” button on the min/max pages when you go to edit the value, that just sets it to the current read value. Then you don’t even need to think about what the value is, it just grabs the current read and sets it.

Noted - and thanks!
