It shows the sensor as green how do I change the color of a sensor Red Green Yellow etc. I have a German Version of Prtg and cannot see anywhere to change the color if the sensor reaches a specific range. For example I am Monitory Backupexec the sensor was added and went green how do I tell the sensor to turn red when an error occurs.

Thnx in Advance

Hi,
what you want to do, can be achieved with channel limits. Please open the "Channels" tab of the sensor and choose the desired channel. Then choose to "Enable Limits" and set the Error/Warning limits to the values you need.
When these limits are reached, the sensor will go to Error/Warning State.
Best regards

Hi,
correct. The fill color cannot be changed easily. What can be done, is using a tool like Firebug to find the respective part in the code and change the color there but this is completely unsupported.
Best regards
