Display other N2K data in Sail Logger?
-
@MacJL Looks like there is no data coming for your Blackwater, which is different than a 0% coming in. We just deployed a change to treat missing/null values as zero, so it should address the UI glitch. However you should ensure you do have readings for your blackwater tank.
On the latter point on ranges, they are set dynamically based on all the values in a given section. It does make it a bit more meaningful when you have multiple readings in a given section. There might be an option to customize it in the future but for now, we will leave it with the default dynamic ranges.

Curious if i add these additional monitoring sources do they then become a part of my trip logs? This would be a complete game changer as I would have trip/log info on egt and coolant temps for reference.
The capability to integrate additional monitoring directly into trip logs is here with Plugin 4.0!
This major update allows you to capture custom NMEA 2000 data—like depth, battery levels, fuel levels, engine hours and more—seamlessly within your trip logs.

Thank you for this new capabilities. I'll test them as soon as possible
But is there a way to add a SignalK path, that is not currently existing? For example, the engine temperature path is created only when it's running. So I can select it in custom monitor page, or add it manually...

Hi @MacJL, that's an interesting case. Currently, there isn't a way to add it manually, but that shouldn't be necessary. If you check Saillogger about an hour after the engine starts running, the path should show up automatically. It will remain available even after the engine stops, as long as Signal K isn’t restarted.

Hello,
Sure it will work. But as I generally configure the sailloger app remotely, I can't start the engine from my house !
And when I'm on board, I usually forget to set it ! And of course, I often reboot the SignalK device just after sailling, before setting this damn path to Sailloger...I will try to find a way to declare this path with a null value, just to set it in Sailloger. This could be a good workaround for my case. I'm pretty sure I can do it with Data Fiddler.
