+ Use this collector when `lm-sensors` doesn't work on your device (e.g. for RPi temperatures).
+ For all other cases use the [Python collector](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/collectors/python.d.plugin/sensors), which supports multiple jobs, is more efficient and performs calculations on top of the kernel provided values."
+ method_description: |
+ It will provide charts for all configured system sensors, by reading sensors directly from the kernel.
+ The values graphed are the raw hardware values of the sensors.

+ prerequisites:
+ list:
+ - title: "Install charts.d plugin"
+ description: |
+ If [using our official native DEB/RPM packages](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/packaging/installer/UPDATE.md#determine-which-installation-method-you-used), make sure `netdata-plugin-chartsd` is installed.
+ - title: "Enable the sensors collector"
+ description: |
+ The `sensors` collector is disabled by default. To enable it, use `edit-config` from the Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`, to edit the `charts.d.conf` file.
+
+ ```bash
+ cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
+ sudo ./edit-config charts.d.conf
+ ```
+
+ Change the value of the `sensors` setting to `force` and uncomment the line. Save the file and restart the Netdata Agent with `sudo systemctl restart netdata`, or the [appropriate method](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/start-stop-restart.md) for your system.
