Beta Feedback: Sensor mapping

Hi Boris,

I'm aware that the mapping is still in beta, but I wanted to provide some feedback for the mapping flow.

It looks like some 'physical' sensors like solevo or heatindex don't have a logical sensor.
In the mapping page you can select them as physical sensor, but you can't map them to a logical one

Not sure if you plan to provide logical sensors for solevo and heatindex as well, but maybe you could remove physical sensors from the mapping list if there's no logical equivalent.

yes right, will be extended.

Any findings that prevent from going public next days?

I haven't used it extensively, but it works

Some thoughts
- The color coding isn't clear to me (what does it mean if the lines turns red ? And after clicking on the mapping tab it's yellow...)
- Not sure whether it's easier to understand and to handle if one would start from the logical sensor (so selecting the logical one first and then assign the appropriate physical sensor). I haven't thought much about it and it might just be a personal preference.
- I don't think that there's a good solution, but for the air sensors one has to look closely to not confuse the station-ids with sensor numbers (air2!2pm air1!2pm air2!1pm air1pm air2pm)

Thanks for implementing

red indicates the just made change for more easy checking if change worked correctly.

When no true issues show up it wil go public tomorrow.

I see. And no concerns to launch this feature.
