===== Python Code to set the sensor id =====

This was replaced with a more robust program written in C.  See Page: [[:home_solar|Home Solar Project]]

This is some code hacked up to set the ID for the sensors.  They start out at '1' so if you forget you'll have to walk it.  One could clean this up to take parameters, but it's so one-shot it's hardly worth it.  //The sensors keep the ID once set, I don't see any way to reset it from hardware.//
