Forward I2C signals to server K and OpenCPN
#1
Question 
Hi,

I did attach some questions to old threads on similar subjects but thought best to start new thread

I have a RPi3 with Sense hat (I already have it and will distance from RPi via a ribbon cable, to be kept down below and use VNC to Android tablet / phones)

I have the I2C signals in Openplotter - I can see them in 'Inspect'

But I have no idea how to get them to OpenCPN (I add them to Dash but empty) and server K

Do I have to 'forward' them to IMEA or something?

As you can see, I am a begginner in all of this

However, I do have some background in sensors etc even if it isn't my field, and can follow instructions or leads and learn Smile

Effectively, I have the signals, but cant use them

I have 0.8 and 0.10 on two different SD cards, but am using 0.8 as this has 'Inspect' and at least the heading has been passed to OpenCPN as it's value is displayed in the Dash and the boat position marker rotates as the sense hat does
(so perhaps I could use how heading has been done as a 'template' for the other signals to follow - if I knew where to look)

Thanks for you patience, hopefully

Leigh
