I set out to replace the chartplotter and bring my system into the 21st century, and I have finally done it. It took months of research, as the H1000 system uses proprietary cabling and protocols. But it CAN BE DONE!! Don't spend $10K on a new system until you stop here first.
If you've got one and you're struggling...post here.
Hello Moose,
I'll have one shortly. It's attached to my new (old) boat, a Scampi 30. While I'm still working on the delivery, I'd like to prepare for the integration of this old B&G hardware into my OpenCPN system (which I've recently started to collect for assembly). Since I can't find any Raspberry Pis, I've loaded OpenPlotter onto an old Netbook. I'm looking forward to putting everything together. Any wisdom which you can provide will certainly be appreciated.
