Thanks guys.
Chris - I saw your other post about trying to achieve. I'm afraid I might be being a bit stupid though - as I thought I needed to get the NMEA input from the iPad in to Openplotter (well kplex to be more precise) in order to get it to OpenCPN? Is that not the case? At the moment I thought kplex was doing the multiplexing for OpenCPN as well?
At the moment - I'm getting nothing showing up in kplex diagnostics at all on the inbound side.
Saqqara - I think that is what you are saying as well. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give that a try and also look at that site.
I do know that TCP/UDP from the iPad/iSailor does work. I used to have difference multiplexer set up that allowed this bi-directional TCP and got the XTE signals to the Autohelm. So I'm pretty sure the kplex/OP is the issue.
