Temp sensor visualization to Duet 3 without mapping to heater

Re: Duet 3 6HC - using temp sensor without mapping to a heater
Hi, how can I visualize the temperature sensor monitoring both for DWC and PanelDue, if it is not mapped to any heater? It is used only for illustration purposes.
I would like to have the reading represented as graph on DWC and as a numerical value on the PanelDue. With DWC, I also have BtnCmd-add in, for which I would like to have that temperature graph also.
I have RepRap firmware ver. 3.5.3

@HeidiH anything temperature sensors that are added that aren't tied to a heater show up on the "extras" tab which is next to the heaters one on the dashboard. There's a little sliding switch that you can activate for each one to show them in the temperature graph.
In BtnCmd you can pick and track any temperature sensor to show in the graph -
@jay_s_uk Great :D! Excellent, thank you! Now I got them visible on DWC and on BtnCmd. How about how could I add the temperature sensor reading visible (as numerical values on the main screen) on the PanelDue?

@HeidiH I don't think you easily can without either editing the paneldue code or by assigning the temperature sensor to a dummy tool or chamber heater
-
@jay_s_uk Ok. I was thinking also if I needed to create a heater, but then it can cause a heater fault if accidentally activated?
However, if that is the only option then I was thinking if I can somehow reject the heaters from going off state to Active or Standby modes so that the heater faults would not be initiated?

@HeidiH you can turn off the heater monitoring for that sensor using the M143 command
