Each device in the device list has a Device submenu. The name (if there is one for that device) is in there.

Hello,

in this case it doens't seems to be. Maybe a issue for the pico script owner. I tried it. But he doesn't respond anymore.

The opendtu will report the device names correctly.

kwindrem commented 2 months ago

If the author of the driver for your device doesn't provide the /CustomName dbus parameter, then there's not much GuiMods can do to display a name.

ok thanks for the info

i had found it because of your hint with /Customname It was in the file /data/venus_kostal_pico/kostal_inverter.py

the original sequence was

self.dbusservice.add_path('/CustomName', "PLC Mec meter")

Why here the " - " was shown , i dont know. Now it is "Piko55" , as i like it.

Many thanks for your help !!

Regards
