Display Configuration

Table of contents

The display can show information as individually configured items. The configuration options are described below. The examples below use <uid> which is a unique number, but can be for instance two digits. <device> is a unique name for your device, for instance hall, or livingroom. Buttonplus uses so called eventtypes internally; they point to a specific action of the Button plus. Eventtype 1 is for instance the click of a button.
