Good morning Gary.
Thank you for your help. Here is the code:
<solar>

#set hours = int($current.sunshine_hours.raw)
#set minutes = int(($current.sunshine_hours.raw - $hours)*60 + 0.5)
<sun value="$hours h $minutes m"/>

</solar> 

That works with the current. But now I need the daylight sunshine.
If I take day, then I get an error message when processing.
