Friendly name for ESP devices - sebba - 2021-01-07 Hello there, I'm playing with some ESPs, some of them "powered" by SensESP (thank you contributors) I am wondering if there are any ways to have a friendly name shown in Connection Activity Dashboard, maybe the text which is used in device's description, instead the client ID code         Thanks, Seb RE: Friendly name for ESP devices - sebba - 2021-01-09 Huh? No one knows? Not even a hint? Thanks RE: Friendly name for ESP devices - abarrow - 2021-01-09 Some of the SignalK guys should weigh in here, but it might be worth having a look at the code to determine how the serial number is derived. It looks like something it might be getting from the ESP. RE: Friendly name for ESP devices - sebba - 2021-01-23 I think I found where this code is defined in EasyESP but I am not sure if its safe to change it. Somehow, I think will be a better option to alter only the displayed text in SignalK dashboard and not the client_id code which is coming from ESP. Still digging...
