Setting Custom Labels
Several of the labels for sensors and devices can be customized, specifically temperature, humidity sensors, and dosing
pumps. *with the addition of an on-screen keyboard, there will be more customizable labels to come in future updates.
To do this you need to manually edit a file, SETTINGS, in the system directory, on the display’s SD card:
This is what you will see when you open the file
// Custom names should be no longer than 18 characters, two word format
// looks best on display
// The name starts after = and ends before ]
// main temperature sensors
[waterTemp=Water Temperature]/n // water temp custom name
[lightTemp=Light Temperature]/n // light temp custom name
[airTemp=Air Temperature]/n // air temp custom name
[airHumidity=Air Humidity]/n // air humidity custom name
// spare DS18B20 temp sensors or DHT22 temp/humidity sensors
[temp1=Temperature 1]/n // extra temp1 custom name
[temp2=Temperature 2]/n // extra temp2 custom name
[temp3=Temperature 3]/n // extra temp3 custom name
[temp4=Temperature 4]/n // extra temp4 custom name
[humidity1=Humidity 1]/n // extra humidity1 custom name
[humidity2=Humidity 2]/n // extra humidity2 custom name
[humidity3=Humidity 3]/n // extra humidity3 custom name
[humidity4=Humidity 4]/n // extra humidity4 custom name
// dosing pumps
[dosingPump1=Conditioner]/n // dosing pump1 custom name
[dosingPump2=Nitrogen]/n // dosing pump2 custom name
[dosingPump3=Phosphorus]/n // dosing pump3 custom name
[dosingPump4=Potassium]/n // dosing pump4 custom name
[dosingPump5=Magnesium]/n // dosing pump5 custom name
[dosingPump6=Copper]/n // dosing pump6 custom name
[dosingPump7=Manganese]/n // dosing pump7 custom name
[dosingPump8=Molybdenum]/n // dosing pump8 custom name
You can currently custom label all the sensors/devices listed below:
 waterTemp, lightTemp, airTemp, airHumidity
 Temp 1 to 4
 Humidity 1 to 4
 dosingPumps 1 to 8
To add a custom label, simply edit the text after ‘=’ and before ‘]’, inserting your desired label. For single words limit the
length to 18 characters, and if it’s two words, limit each word to 7 to 9 characters, (this will be displayed on the icon/button
over two line).
For example, you are using dosing pumps on a freshwater planted tank, and you have fertilizer in dosing pump 1, Iron in
dosing pump 2, and Potassium in dosing pump 3, and Phosphorus in dosing pump 4.
