Sensor name

In brief

Enter a name for the sensor in the Sensor name field on the sensor's settings page. You must make an entry, but it can be anything you like.

Details

Sensor names should specify what the sensor is intended to measure - so this might be something like 'Water temperature' or 'Food consumption'.

The names of sensor results will include this name, so it's a good idea to try to use relatively short names so as to avoid making the names of results very long. For example, 'Water temp.' would be a better name than 'Water temperature'.

Limits

You can enter anything you like up to a maximum of 32 characters.
