As attached image...
I installed the MCP3008 module with the package install tool in without any error.
I put two test module (MCP3008's virtual module) in one group.
the hardware shoud work fine because I can see the right value in a Log file and in popup menu (see the oictures)
But...
no any value appair on Widget and in the bottom part of widget there is write:
"undefined, NaN/NaN...

I'm just fix the problem of  "Collection was modified...." by re-installing Mono in a previus revision
but the virtual module  still not working.. do data and description sowed and "undefined: NaN, Nan..." in the footer.
I'm fighting to undestend how the widget ad virtual module work.

The sensor widget only display parameters with name starting with "Sensor." eg. "Sensor.Temperature" so you have to map raw values to sensor parameters.

Thanks Gene, now is iltle bit clear.
If I use Sensor.Temperature the widget work fine,  widget display correct value, icon and unit of mesure.

but in my case the with the ADC I tray to mesure voltage, current , etc.
if I use Sensor.Tensione still not work.

I found one istruction like case 'Sensor.Temperature': in the widget's javascript but there isn't
I'm confused where is te contol? can I use one generic name for parameters with name starting with "Sensor."?

thank you a lot

I do not know if this is a right way but i solve my problem by a new widget for MCP3008.
as picture attached now is possible display the vaule and the unit of mesure and max and min value.

if you can use this widget

• install widget attached
• Change the default widget in MCP3008 Analog input module startupcode withProgram.AddVirtualModule("Components.MCP3008", "CH0", "Sensor", "homegenie/generic/adc")
• Configure the module with "parameter name to store computed value" as MCP3008.<Unit of mesure> i.e MCP3008.V, MCP3008.mA, etc.
