User Created Channel Names

Post by drj696 »

Can you create custom channel names like in the old software. I want to have both a front and rear wheel speed sensor, but only see a name for one in the list.

Just came to ask the same thing, seems that you can't set custom channel names in V2?

What I've found is you can add a channel in a script using the addChannel function and call the channel whatever you want. If you add a channel with the same name as an standard channel name it will override the standard channel.

If I understood Brent correctly, vchans will come to Dashboard with next update.

Yep - upcoming 2.8.0 firmware and 1.3.0 app will properly show selectable custom channels in addition to the standard channel names when selecting them in the dashboard.
