Getting wind mode and GPS mode into pypilot
#8
OK Ironman you were right I believe, I did as you said and trough opencpn it works fine, I can select any of the 4 available options in the pypilot web interface, compass, GPS, wind and true wind. See below.
I have pypilot configured as server (master) and the router configured as client to pypilot and as master as well by itself

The question now is what to do to reach the same result without opencpn (which means PC on in my case) ?

1 - modify pypilot in such a way it can listen to the router UDP or TCP port and forward it to its own TCP:20220 port (what opencpn does as of now)
2 - try to get the NMEA sentences into pypilot trough the RS422/USB converter from the router

I don't know what RS422/USB converter is worth, so I would try option 1 first if you could point me to the files that must be modified and what commands to look into.

And best wishes for this new year, gentle winds and desert beaches for all!
