Exciting News for Early Testers!
Hello, everyone! We're thrilled to announce the launch of the initial version of our new capability for custom monitoring to early testers. Given the complexity of this new functionality, we're rolling it out on a smaller scale for now. This means two things: it's not broadly announced yet, and yes, encountering some bugs is part of the adventure!
Here's What's New:
When you navigate to the Monitoring & Tracking Tab in your settings, you'll find a new option at the bottom: Add Monitoring Section
.
What to Expect:
- Custom Monitoring Configurations: Organize your additional monitoring needs into sections. Each section can represent a different unit of measurement (length in feet/meters, temperature Celsius/Fahrenheit, nautical miles, percentages etc.).
- Flexibility: Add multiple data sources to each section. There's no limit to how many sections you can create, offering unparalleled customization. For instance, create a "Tanks" section for monitoring fresh water, fuel, and waste levels, or a section dedicated to battery voltages for house and starter batteries.
This update is designed to provide you with ultimate flexibility in monitoring custom NMEA data from your boat, tailored to your specific needs.
To Get Started:
Ensure your system is equipped with plugin version 3.0.0 or newer to take full advantage of this feature.

Thank you for being a part of this journey. Your participation and feedback are crucial to the success of this rollout!
Happy Monitoring!
