Hi, I have just installed OpenPlotter 2.0 on a Pi 3+ and it all seems to work OK except I cannot find the set up tabs as shown in the manual under:
Most of the core features of OpenPlotter can be configured from controls located on tabs
Where can I find this screen so I can set up my GPS/AIS NMEA inputs and download charts etc?
Many thanks
David

Hi, many thanks for your response. What app do I need to run to get to the OpenPlotter controls tabs?

Many thanks, but there is no description of the OpenPlotter Setting App in the manual. When I run OpenPlotter Settings the only tabs I can see along the top are 'OpenPlotter Apps' 'General Settings' and 'Raspberry Settings'. How do I access settings so I can connect my GPS and AIS (Quark device via WiFi) and add charts to OpenCPN?
Regards
David

Many thanks, I now have the Serial app running so I could use a Serial to USB adapter to get the NMEA data from my Quark via a cable, but I would prefer to use WiFi. I can't see in the Network App where I set up a WiFi connection to the Quark (which acts as an AP).

Connect to that AP as client and use Signal K server to create the network connection. You do not need network app here.
