Using moitessier hat and GPIO

You wouldn't happen to have a link to the sketch you are running on the esp32 do you? :-)

Working on a new one, I'll hunt down an older version if you want a play.

Here's a link to a board I've been playing around with--

It's amazing how they can turn around boards so quick and so cheap. Now they also do a surface mounted assembly service, about 600 odd components 'always there' for a few dollars set up fee plus loads of 'extended' components with another few dollars fee if they need to swap out a reel. So quite incredible that someone like me with limited electronics/programming skills but good at google and cut'n'paste can actually produce something for little cash which does a wealth of useful things! In just a few days if you pay for DHL. The future is upon us. :

This looks promising! So it will be the mother of all sensor connection cards? Making more than one? ;-)

You should be able to get some of your own made if you have a link to the design.
Anchor light PCBs arrived today, works great!

So with some of the brain trust collected as contributors in this thread, I'll continue to post some of my newbie questions here. I decided to go with SigkSens and installing the shabang went smooth. No warnings or any red text whatsoever when compiling. BUT when I get here: https://github.com/mxtommy/SigkSens/wiki...k-settings, the D1 mini does not show up on my network. Any idea why? I am stuck!

Edit: It might have been that I had left out the SPIFF - troubleshooting...

Newermind - solved it by setting to 1M SPIFFS. Leaving my newbie request though - in case someone is as dense as yours truly... (On the bright side - I always float head up...)

Sailors,
Winter is upon us and it's time to plan for next season. I've been tinkering with OP and A RPI 3 for a while, and plan to launch my setup next season. Before moving on, I have one question I need some assistance with. I plan to buy the HAT as soon as it is available, but I also would like to use the GPIO's for sensors and switches. Is there a common breakout board or how do you guys solve this? Pictures anyone?
Best regards,
Ranur

Ranur, I had same question. Solved by buying dAisy HAT.

Check EasyESP, much easier ... !

You did better than I did. After following the above tutorial I’m unable to compile:

Code:

I took some of PaddyB's great SignalK code and put it on an M5StickC, and it works great. I just finished coding a tank level sensor, and was previously able to put together an engine temp sensor. M5Sticks have a multitude of plug-in devices available, including an RS485 converter that also has an on-board 12-5v buck converter (the buck converter specs show that input voltage can go well beyond 12v). Even if you don't use the RS485 interface, the little add-on is only 3 bucks, so it's worth it just for the 12v converter. M5Sticks also have a small 160x80 display, so in the case of the tank level sensor I have a nice color display of tank level on the device while also sending it via WiFi UDP to OpenPlotter.

They are a tiny bit more expensive than just buying a basic ESP32 board, but you get a little more, like an on-board IMU, a display, a little case and a few other things.
