signalk-custom-can-parser
Allows users to parse can data that are not directly supported by SignalK. Currently it reads the current of a CAB500 sensor at adress 0x6A6, 1702, and it will be shown in signalk as Current.value
Getting started
- Use the SignalK Appstore to install the signalk-custom-can-parser plugin.
- Browse to Server => Plugin => Custom CAN parser choose which CAN-bus it should listen on, can0, can1 or vcan0 and then enable it.
- Restart SignalK
If it dosen't start, you get "require("../build/Release/can.node")", it might be due to that socketcan is not isntall properly. If so:
- cd ~signalk/node_modules/socketcan/
- npm install socketcan
That builds the application.
Configuration
canInterface can0, can1 etc
