I did as abarrow said, and now, I receive signals from the plotter (gps, depht, wind etc..). I use a seperate computer with another navigation program and it get the information from the openplotter just perfect. So, now I only need to figure out how to send information to the autopilot....
Anyway, thanks for your help.

Great news. Im going to take another look at my 300 course computer to see if will also bridge like your plotter.
You now just need a USB/Serial connection between your Openplotter Pi and your Chartplotter.
The AP example configuration in OP (NMEA 0183 tab) works with my ST7002 autopilot.
The create a route or do a navigate to in Opencpn and you are away
Just a question: the usb/serial you talk about, is it the seatalk/nmea converter you talked about earilier? I already have a nmea0183 to usb coverter witch is connected to the c80 plotter nmea port.
