Anyone with an Onan generator have any sort of smart interface into it?
I've got a 13.5kw Onan MDKAZ generator and I'm entertaining the idea of getting J-1939 and NMEA-2000 data out of it. Right now it's dumb, just the gauges on the unit itself and a simple on/off idiot light panel up in the salon.
Supposedly there's a J-1939 add-on option for some of their units, but a few searches online haven't led me to any conclusive ways to tell if it's possible with mine. I've not yet spoken with anyone local that services them.
Anyone have a favorite forum or point of contact for figuring this out?
