    I have created a multi-sensor + relay node that is passing two V_VAR1 and a V_LIGHT to the gateway. From the device overview I can see the two "Arduino Generic" sensors, but they are not displaying any value for the level. I know the values are being passes to the gateway since they are being reported correctly when I open the advanced tab of the sensor itself(see images). Any idea's why the Vera is not displaying the values next to the word "Level"?

    This repeater node is a custom board that I posted about last month. Once everything is worked out I will be posting more details to that thread.

      You would have to create your own custom device files (which shows the VAR_x).

        How do you define what to show for a device. I mean similar to the distance och temperature sensor? If I have a custom variable that tells number of times something has happened, how do I show it on the device itself and not only as a variable in the settings?

          You cannot change the default Temp-device without affecting all of the same type (vera has no "override" functionality in their device definition files).

          So.. what you can do is to create a new device type used by the Arduino plugin.

          Here is some documentation of the files needed.

          (http://wiki.micasaverde.com/index.php/Category:Development)

          And this is where you set your own:
