Arduino - How do I connect the Arduino to my SignalK server

[BartStevens]

All,


How can I link my arduino sensor data into Signal K?

I read this article, but do not know if it is still applicable, as I'm a newbie

And how can I add a connection in the Server Connection settings?

Hope somebody can point me in right direction.

Thanks (again)

I would suggest sending the data over wifi and using an ESP-8622 module or an ESP-32 module. Comparable in cost to Arduino and the Arduino IDE can be used
to program them.

I have put together a couple of these, quite simple. Please take a look at my project to have some ideas.

The benefit is that there is no cable and data is fed straight in to the SignalK server.

Have fun,
Ole
