Getting Started Using Signal K

You can start using Signal K by

• connecting to the demo server on the Internet with any web browser
• installing SK server on any computer
• getting some hardware for your boat, such as a Raspberry Pi, suitable USB adapters for your boat’s network (NMEA 0183, NMEA 2000 or roll your own with I2C sensors) and installing the server
• For sensors over WiFi take a look at SensESP
• installing OpenPlotter, which includes a Signal K server

Once you have a server running (or you start by using the demo server) you can install some Signal K supporting mobile apps such as WilhelmSK (iOS).
