Openplotter output UDP - barney2074 - 2019-01-28
Hello
I have been struggling to get Openplotter to output to UDP port 2000
This is so I can use position/depth data in the Navionics app.
I've followed all the methods in:
http://forum.openmarine.net/showthread.php?tid=1291&page=2
Pinguino's last method (entering xxx.xxx.xxx.255 in the kplex tab) does not work for me, although one of the earlier methods of editing kplex.config partially works
As mentioned by Pinguino, I have the OP running in client mode (I have a separate PI zero running as an access point)
[udp]
name=udp_out
direction=out
optional=yes
device=wlan0
port=2000
If I create a test TCP input, and generate some data, say by replaying a log file in OpenCPN, then this data is output to UDP.
[tcp]
name=testin
direction=in
optional=yes
mode=client
persist=yes
retry=10
address=10.10.10.151
port=10109
However, data from the instruments on the boat (I'm using an Actisense NGT-1) is not output to UDP
Everything else works o.k i.e data from the instruments is output to TCP port 10110, or SignalK
thank you in advance for any assistance
Andrew
