Cheap tank level sending units - and a thought about dual station
#3
Hi Ole, yes it was your great posts on here and that had me playing with the inductive sensors. I do hope to get a couple of them working on my plastic blackwater holding tank where a float sensor would be icky.

Where would you put your code tank-level.py to get it running and reporting data to signalk, on an Openplotter instance? (For just a couple of sensors I wouldn't even need the PCF8574A.)

I see your code does the job of translating the readings of the individual sensors to a single decimal ratio which would indeed be easily configured in Kip, WilhelmSK, and other signalk clients.
