Parking distance sensors

General
1

hello,
i want to show parking sensor status on my dashboard. my idea was to load graphic of the distance bars dynamicaly depending on trigger value. But i cant get it to work.

What does the data from parking sensor look like?

they are china parking sensors. my esp32 sends a custom id through the can bus where a byte0 , byte1 etc. represents the distance in cm of sensor0 ,sensor1 etc.

i would like to do something like this:

if byte0 > 0 and < 40 then load pic1
if byte0 > 40 and < 80 load pic2 ….

  • First verify that RealDash is receiveing correct values. You a text gauge for that.
  • Each gauge in RealDash can operate in 3 modes, normal, warning and critical. An Image Gauge can switch to different images based on those levels.
  • If 3 images are not enough, you can either stack more gauges, or use something else, like a Bar Gauge instead.
