Project thread, B&G integration in Jeanneau Espace - manitu - 2024-04-13 Hello mariners! I've been dormant on this forum/the OpenPlotter scene for some years , as life suddenly happened. I'm at it again but with a different modus operandi , as I got a different boat with more equip. NMEA2000: 2xB&G T8 plotters. B&G H3000 rate compass B&G Zeus ZG100 GPS B&G Triton Multi instrument B&G Triton Autopilot Control Simrad AC12 Autopilot Simrad IS12 Instrumentation (2xWind + 4xData) Icom IC-506 VHF/AIS Airmar 110WX Wind/Weather sensor Airmar DPT/STW/TMP Sensor OpenPlotter CAN-USB Stick v2 TCP/IP: B&G 3G Radar Link between T8 plotters 5-Port Switch My Boat is the Jeanneau Espace 1000 Pilothouse, with hydraulic lifting keel. My objectives: Touchscreen at indoor helm with bigger Map/Radar/Instruments view. Cabin heater remote control. Barebone backup system on Pi only , if electronics go down. Possible future projects: Non-touch screen through rear window of pilothouse. Depth correction, Keel Up/Down. Inverter/generator control. HF/HAM radio control I'm undecided between one T8 inside and one outside + OP screen inside and eventually outside too or one T8 starboard, one T8 port outside and just OP screen inside. I've bought the RPi 5 as I like to tinker with the newest tech. I got a working , more than adequate system for navigation, so no worries while beta-testing. I'll buy a heatsink/fan as I see people her strongly reccomend active cooling. Should I buy the McArthur HAT?? I got the old CAN-USB stick, AIS, and I do not use NMEA0183. Is the CAN interface better? Is the power management worth it alone? [edit] Found out NMEA2000 data isn't present on the TCP/IP bus. More to follow , Just started updating myself now , and the amount of information has increased tenfold since my last visit. |
