How to edit telemetry labels, one advice, one question

[TeroS]

Here's a screenshot of my main screen:



As you can see it says "Headspeed" and not the original "JLog26: RPM Uni".

The place where to edit the label is on the models json-file, example of unedited part:

	"Telem-Detect": {
		"Type": "Telem-Detect",
		"Data": [{
			"ID": 34120706,
			"Param": 0,
			"Saving": 1,
			"Rep": 0,
			"Trig": 0,
			"Prio": 0,
			"Decimal": 0,
			"Label": "JLog26",
			"Unit": "",
			"UnitIDX": 0,
			"DataType": 0
		},

Just remove the JLog26, leave the "" there.

Same goes for the "RPM Uni":

		{
			"ID": 34120706,
			"Param": 3,
			"Saving": 1,
			"Rep": 0,
			"Trig": 0,
			"Prio": 0,
			"Decimal": 0,
			"Label": "Headspeed",
			"Unit": "rpm",
			"UnitIDX": 0,
			"DataType": 4
		},

Now. The problem is the unnecessary : in the label. Most likely it's because Jeti writes the label like $device : $sensor, but does anyone know where to look for when I wan't to get rid of that : in the label?

I would guess that the ":" is a standard part of the telemetry display and could only be changed in the transmitter firmware.

I also found out how to remove the "T:" from timer and "Rec:" from receiver voltage. They're on language json.

Quick'n'dirty guide:

1. Select a model in TX you are NOT editing.
2. Connect TX with USB
3. Open the models json file
4. Make a UNEDITED BACKUP of the file.
5. Open file in text-editor. (NOT word, I use Notepad++ with json plugin)
6. To remove sensors name:
- Seach for the sensors name, for example JLog26, it looks like

	"Telem-Detect": {
		"Type": "Telem-Detect",
		"Data": [{
			"ID": 34120706,
			"Param": 0,
			"Saving": 1,
			"Rep": 0,
			"Trig": 0,
			"Prio": 0,
			"Decimal": 0,
			"Label": "JLog26",
			"Unit": "",
			"UnitIDX": 0,
			"DataType": 0
		},

Change the "JLog26" to "" and edit some sensor names if You need/want to. (For example JLog's "RPM Uni" could be changed to "Headspeed" and so on.
7. Because Aileron is Aileron and not roll I also changed "Roll" to "Aileron".
8. Save the file on TX. (If you just wanna edit model jump to 12.)
9. To remove timer's label "T: Timername" open language json-file, search for "T:" and change to "" in same manner. MAKE THE BACKUP.
10. To remove the REC: label from receiver voltage search and change "Rec:" to "".
11. Because Aileron is Aileron and not roll I also changed "Roll" to "Aileron".
12. Save the file to TX.
13. IMPORTANT: In windows use "Eject" to disconnect from TX.
14. Press "ESC" on TX to disconnect from PC.
15. Shutdown TX.
16. Start TX.
17. Select the model You edited and check.

Looks like in my first edit's there was something in TX cache or SD cache because I didn't do the eject in windows, not sure if I even rebooted TX. After finding this out i verified the eject-reboot method, it works.

Now let's find out what else we can rename

CAUTION: Most likely especially the language json will be overwritten if/when there's an update, so always make backup's of everything!

CAUTION: Did I say make backup?`Don't cry for me (Argentina) if You mess up Your TX

Confirmed: Updating TX to 3.02 will overwrite lang.jsn so please update the new file.
