We are adding three sensors to our generator. Oil pressure, water temperature, and exhaust temperature. The sensors are meant to connect to the factory wiring harness then into factory gauges on the control panel.
Because we didn't opt for the gauge package, our control panel does not have the analog gauges just unterminated wires.
I think a ESP32 is what I would use to read that data and then send it to Signalk. Is that correct?...

Is there some way to set the ip address that is used in AP mode? I've got several devices that will run in AP mode, and while I don't mind having to connect the wifi to each device when configuring it or performing an update, sometimes the computer will automatically reconnect to one of the other APs without me noticing. At least if the ip addresses were different, it would give me some sort of indication.

@Matti Airas I have OTA updates enabled on my SH-ESP32, and also on another ESP32 board. I’m also sending out n2k data, so I would like to disable sending signalk data. I followed your HALMET example which works for the data, but OTA updates don’t work. Looking at the different app types, it looks like OTA is only available on the full app. Do you have any suggestions?
V2 SDK if it makes a difference.
Thanks,

It starts only after the delay. You need to call the function once manually, either directly as a regular function call, or with onDelay(0, ...) in which case the first execution happens once the event loop starts.

QQ: does a repeat sensor have to be connected to an SK output? I am wondering if I could use a repeat sensor to trigger an e-paper display update on a different interval than the communication with SK without interfering with anything else.

First of all thank you much for the great project! I managed to use SensESP to send temperature, pressure and humidity data (bme280 sensor) to SignalK (running on an rpi5 with openplotter) from an ESP32-E microcontroller powered by a lipo battery. I'm also able to show the measurements on an e-paper display as I want to have an energy efficient display on my boat when the pi is not running. To reduce the power consumption of the esp32 I planned to use deep sleep mode and only send new deltas eve...

Here's a sneak peek of something I've been working on for my own purposes: an NMEA 0183 wind instrument interface written using SensESP. I use it to provide a configuration interface and NMEA 2000 (and Signal K, of course) connectivity for an Autonnic A5120 wind instrument. I intend to write a tutorial on the topic but no promises on the schedule.
I already use the thing on my own boat and it works well and reliably.

For those who are interested in SensESP v3 development: I added a bunch of transforms that should help with many common use cases.
Join and Zip accept input from multiple producers and combine them into a single output tuple. This facilitates implementing transforms that require input from multiple sources.
The new repeating transforms, respectively, let you repeat an intermittent input at regular intervals. NMEA 2000, for example, expects that PGNs are transmitted at constant intervals, and the new RepeatConstantRate transform simplifies that job a lot.
See the PR here: https://github.com/SignalK/SensESP/pull/703. I'll keep it open for a few days in case someone would be interested to review it....Lure - Newbie in SensESP world: I have successf...
Newbie in SensESP world: I have successfully configured my SensESP template project, connected it to WiFi on which also Cerbo GX with SignalK 2.8.0 is running. SensESP discovers SK server via mDNS, but then cannot connect.

I've been using a helper script to manage and build the SensESP v3 project. @Claude's DM question led me to realize I forgot to add the script to the repo. DOH. It's now there.
The run script includes a bunch of subcommands that you can execute like:

Has anyone successfully used an ESP32S2 with the n2k libraries? Apparently the CAN bus was "renamed" TWAI so the interface is slightly different.

Is anyone using sensesp to create alarm data on the n2k bus via signalk? Looking at PGN 127501 it seems like I can create a bilge alarm switch status

is there a decent code reference? I've got this handy example project that works but I'm questioning the way it's written

sensESP token? expiry
have sensESP device, been working fine, and just “stopped” communication with SK,
i can still access it as expected via webUI and noted its EXACTLY 12 months since i “programmed” it (& presumably first connected to sk)
i suspect? maybe its an authentication/token issue (eg “1 year”)...

@Matti Airas, I have a problem with my SH-ESP32 crashing or locking up every so often. When it happens, I no longer receive any data over wifi or n2k, and no logging via usb. My questions are, is the a way to have it dump a crash log, and, is there a a way to have it automatically restart if there is a crash?
