Windvane weather sensors with display virtual serial port connectivity
#26
I have a similar issue in that opencpn is not receiving nmea sentences from Sean's weather module.  Have posted the same issue to https://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/f13...44881.html

 I am trying to setup wind instruments for Opencpn on and Android tablet.

I have a Davis wind vane connected to Sean's weather sensor receiver and connected to a Huawei tablet via a USB OTG cable.

I can seethe nmea sentences being received by the tablet in a serial USB terminal app.

In opencpn connections there is a droop down to select for the serial port but in the nmea debug window no sentences are coming in other than GPS?

Does anyone have any ideas of what to try next? Have been through what feels like all different settings with no luck. Only thing I can think of is that thst the serial port address in the drop down is incorrect? Is that likely, I'm unsure how to check it?  Or perhaps opencpn needs some other permission to receive the signal from the USB port? When first connecting the USB cable a popup requesting permission for Opencpn to access comes up. 

Thanks
