@mxtommy KIP instrument display webapp for Signalk

[mxtommy]

Hi!

I recently installed a wind sensor (NASA wireless), and the setup with openplotter and SignalK-server on a RPi3b recognizes the wind NMEA-sentence plug-n-play I use KIP to present the apparent wind speed and direction. Now, it would be sweet to present the historical values with a graph, and I can tell from earlier posted pics in this thread that others managed to create such. BUT when I chose KIP widget "Historical DataSet", there are no DataSet to choose from (even when the wind sensor has been running for a while)? I experimented with the settings of logging in the Signal K-server settings but without luck.

Thankful for any advice!

Hi!

Have you looked in the "Historical Data" tab in the App settings? (menu in lower right). Basically, you need to tell KIP what data to keep track of. Once it's created, you will be able to select it in a graph. Note KIP doesn't get any logging from the signalk server. It just recalls the last X minutes of data it has seen, so only data since you started the App is available.

Thanks,

Thomas
