  Comparison with Vanemar

  Hi @mshulman , it is a good idea. Adding notifications to custom monitoring data is already on our backlog and it should address this need.

  record engine hours on trip logs
  A admin

  Checking the configuration, it looks like that section may be misconfigured. Make sure the Data Field section in the configuration is not empty. Also, for testing, please make sure you don’t change your monitoring configuration during a trip. Make any changes before starting or after completing the trip, but not in between.

  Let us know the outcome.

  record engine hours on trip logs
  A admin

  Hi @Andrea , sorry we didn't see your previous message. Looks like your RPM is logged in trip logs and monitoring but we don't see anything about engine hours.

  First step is to make sure it does show up in Saillogger monitoring, if it does, then it will show up in trip logs.

  Do you ever see it in Monitoring? Make sure you give a proper field name and it maps to the Signal K path. Engine should be running or at least the ignition should be on when you do this.

  Depth measurement resolution

  Hi @digger thanks for the note, it is a good catch. We increased the resolution, you can check again.

  Suddenly not getting a log entry when arriving at a destination - last entry is “underway
  A admin

  Hi @joyride , not sure what happened here but it clearly didn't mark the trip start, so that was the issue but not sure when. Were the instruments on and was Saillogger receiving the position reports then?

  When you leave the dock again, please check if Saillogger sees your position and in about 15 minutes recognizing you as being underway.

  Hi @Andrea This would be a cool feature. We will log this in the backlog and look into it.

  Hi @joyride , are your instruments and Internet on?

  Privately sharing with friends and family
  A admin

  Hi @digger, welcome. You are spot on—if you want to share your position or logs with a select group of people, like your family, you can enable the public profile and set a password. That’s exactly what the password for the public profile is for.

  Some Nmea2000 parameters are not shown
  A admin

  Hi @Andrea, not sure if I could fully follow. Do you mean propulsion.port.runTime was available in Signal K with fresh data and it didn't show up in Saillogger?

  Could you capture this when it happens?

  Hi @Andrea, it is hard to debug this from the screenshots, as it appears there may be multiple factors at play. I am not entirely sure Smart Battery Sense works with Signal K, since we do not have one to test, but one thing to check is the frequency of its updates. Something feels off there.

  For Saillogger, it watches these signals and checks their age. If they are fresh, it processes them; if not, it ignores them. Saillogger uses one-minute granularity for data but allows a bit of buffer time since not every source emits data regularly. That said, any reliable source should definitely send data every minute; otherwise, it is not ideal for monitoring purposes.
