..set up, a double depth and speed transducer in combination with Garmin GM10 - michielinsinger - 2020-08-11
On the classic 8 mR sailboat I race on we like to setup 2 combined transducers for depth and speed. on either side of the hull one. but the Garmin GM10 cannot work with 2 same signals, I am told. Can I put the SignalK server in the middle and then solve this by renaming them although everything is open the same nmea2000 bus?
i am new to this but very motivated since I see the full potential of this system, and like to help friends make the transition too
kind regards
Michiel

How do you want the signals to show? Like if the two sensors send different values do you want the display to just flicker between latest values from them?

I would prefer them as separate items left depth and right depth and left speed and right speed since on a classic boat the one pointing down on one tack is accurate the one pointing up is not. but standard Garmin GM10 can't work with this so hopefully by putting a singal k server in between it is possible or we loose the Garmin all together and use an other visualisation
