Is it possible to let one factory sensor depend on one or several other factory sensors. If yes, please give an example.

Hi,
are you trying to use factory sensors as sources for other factory sensors? If so, this is not possible. Factory sensors are a sensor type which cannot be used as source for other factory sensors.
Best regards

Hi. Yes, I would like to use a factory sensor as a source for another factory sensor. I have a sensor tree. At each level, I have a factory sensor showing the status for all the 'normal' sensors, for that level. At the top level, I would like to have a factory sensor, showing the result of all the other factory sensors, instead og refering to all the "normal" sensors... That would be nice :-)

Seeing as factory sensors cannot be used as source sensors, and there are no near-future plans to change this due to technical reasons, I'm afraid that isn't possible.
