Here is an example of how additional data is captured per trip, from our logbook:
This will show up for you the next time you complete a trip, based on custom monitoring data you have added.

Addtional Monitoring CodesCurious if there is a confusion. In regards to wind average/max and SOG average/max, they are already part of each trip log. Here is an example:
Bottom two sections have those.
When you add additional monitoring data, minimum and maximum of those values will also be captured and displayed per log (under a section called Additional Data). Average is a bit more contextual and only makes sense for few types, so these are minimum and maximum right now.

Addtional Monitoring CodesI was about to say that, more stateful things like average and maximum are not normally transmitted on NMEA, I don't believe they have PGNs either. Saillogger definitely calculates the averages and max and gives it as part of a trip/log summary but from what I understand you want to display that during the trip itself? If so, while doable, they are not currently calculated during a trip.

Addtional Monitoring CodesRe-read your message, if this doesn't work, let's focus on one specific item first.
Make sure that field is available in N2k first, then make sure it shows up in the Data Browser for Signal K. If those happen but the path doesn't show up in Saillogger, restart Signal K and wait 10 minutes.
Please share your findings and we can try to help you more.

Addtional Monitoring CodesHi Brian, we published a detailed tutorial for this: Saillogger NMEA 2000 Monitoring
In a nutshell:
Step 1: Find the Signal K path of the N2k data you want to monitor
Step 2: Add a custom monitoring section in Saillogger to monitor it. Ensure you choose the right type so Saillogger can do the necessary unit conversions for you (to degrees, knots, miles, meters/feet etc.)

Trying to add roll&pitch fields tracked in the AppIt is indeed because it is a composite value. Those need to be split up. You can do so with Node-RED, please install Node-RED plugin to Signal K (Detailed instructions in this video tutorial)
And then import this snippet (courtesy of Scott Bender of Signal K team) using the top right menu item.

When you deploy, it will give you explicit paths for
navigation.attitude.yaw,navigation.attitude.pitchandnavigation.attitude.roll.
At some point, Saillogger should decode composite values but there are many paths that have composite values and doing so in a smart way requires some thinking.

True vs Apparent Wind SpeedYou need to do it in plugin configuration, normally accessible at http://venus.local:3000/admin/#/serverConfiguration/plugins/derived-data when you are on the same network with Cerbo.
