How to Edit a sensor name?

Editing sensor names is required if you re-use a sensor at a different location

In the app…

* Click the top Left 3 lines icon

* Select Devices

* Select Alarm Base Station

* Select the Sensor you want to rename

* Click the top Right gear icon

* Select Name

I guess you could delete it, reset it and add it again…
