sharing smartphone GPS - topodom - 2018-02-10 Hi everyone, My USB GPS broke down. Fortunatly i am still working on openplotter in my house . While waiting the new device i am working on a backup solution. I have installed the "share GPS" application on my android cellphone: that is a gpsd server. Using the tcp protocol, the phone IP and the right port i can get the gps signal in OpenCPN But it's not working with openPlotter. Any idea ? RE: sharing smartphone GPS - e-sailing - 2018-02-11 There is nothing special. This works for me: Android Data Type: NMEA Connection Method: Use TCP/IP ... Name gps OpenPlotter select NMEA tab press add Type: TCP Name: gpstcp Address: 10.10.10.168 Port: 50000 in/out: in press OK press Apply changes RE: sharing smartphone GPS - topodom - 2018-02-11 Yes i have exactly the same settings. In an other hand, OP NMEA Tab do not behave as usual : i do not get any result from the diagnostic (mygps tcp, even opencpn tcp out,...) Maybe because a USB GPS is mandatory for a normal behavior ? i do not get any result in openCPN from openplotter too, while node red is working properly for the roll, pich and pressure sensor I'll try again when i will get my new GPS. |
