I would like to set a PGN in the ' manufacturers range' on my actisense NGT-1, above 130816, but am not able to.
At the start I could not get the PGNs to pop up at all, until I figured out that I had more than 30 enabled. After resetting the device, it nicely showed the list of PGNs and I am able to set ' lower values'.
I can check the box, but it simply ' doesn't stick', after the pop up to set it, it returns and empties out the checkbox.
Tried starting openplotter-can from command prompt, but only see the signalk start/stop messages, nothing else that could help troubleshooting.
Any suggestions?

Actisense made changes in the past.
Code:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Changes from v2.660 to v2.670 --
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* NGT-1:
- Manufacturer Proprietary PGNs (130816/0x1FF00 - 131071/0x1FFFF):
Fixed bug that resulted in these fast-packet PGNs incorrectly being
transferred (to PC) as single-packet PGNs.
- Manufacturer Proprietary PGNs (65280/0xFF00 - 65535/0x0FFFF) and
(130816/0x1FF00 - 131071/0x1FFFF): Fixed bug that would allow any PGN in
the 256-PGN block to be transmitted if at least one PGN was enabled.
- Improved accuracy of the reported "NMEA 2000 Tx Load" value in the System
Status BST-BEM.
First try to update your firmware. Than use the latest actisense v2.103 NMEA reader to setup your NGT-1
Already running the latest firmware.
The actisense app does not list these pgn’s to select for TX.

I understand that you only have to select one PGN of "the 256-PGN block" to get the write permission to the listed 130816-131071.
Have you tried sending these PGNs?
Why do you think it is an openplotter bug?
