No idea, sorry.  Hardware monitoring is a totally different issue.
Do you know what monitoring chip you have got?
Do you know whether it's on SMBus or on LPC or something else (like HECI)?
Etc, etc.  You need to do some research.

BTW, mbmon haven't seen any updates in quite a long while, so it's missing
support for many newer chips.
Unfortunately, state of hardware/sensors monitoring is relatively poor in FreeBSD.
