How do I add water and diesel sensor?

Has anyone figured out how to implement the MCP3008 ADC on the Pi/OP SPI sensor interface in OP V0.9?
I cant find any instructions in the on-line documentation on the physical connections or how to configure it in OP.
Also what is "aktiv" which I see in the SPI settings tab?
Thanks
Steve 

BTW - I have written a Python script to read my fuel sensor using an MCP3208 and display the result on an LED bargraph but Id really like to get the fuel level read by OP.

OK answered my own question ...
A bit of experimenting and I have my MCP3208 working in SPI/OP and can see the output in the SignalK diagnostic window.
Now to get my head around SignalK/NodeRed to display the result Smile
