- AQI.eco: this display is meant to fetch data from AQI.eco If Your sensor (NAM or SensorCommunity type) sends data to AQI, then You can use URL of device with data.json added (example: public URL for sensor: https://nettigo.aqi.eco/pl/rurak URL to fetch data: https://nettigo.aqi.eco/pl/rurak/data.json)
- local device If You don't use AQI.eco, then You can fetch data from sensor in local network (the same WiFi router). When this option is selected Sensor URL should be http://IP_ADDRESS_OF_YOUR_SENSOR/data.json
- Time zone offset - how many hours Your local time differs from UTC
