Speed through water and True wind (signal K)
#1
I am working on rebuild and setup new system OP 2.1 on RPI4

I want to check as much as possible on the desk at home, before replace one system by another on the boat.


Now I have an issue with STW and True Wind information.


Goal: make sure STW and True Wind information correctly transmitted converted from signalK to NMEA and shown in OpenCPN.
Current state: Neither True wind or STW are not shown.


What I am doing:
To be clear, most sensors IMU,Apparent Wind,Pypilot,GPS are real and connected to RPi but no DEPTH and STW
STW value I simulate by "Signal K delta simulator"  and send value 1..1.2  to navigation.speedThroughWater.
Should it be in m/s? Should it be just number?

I can see in SignalK Data Browser: navigation.speedThroughWater 1.33295
I setup in "Convert Signal K to NMEA0183" plugin  VWT, VHW, MWV apparent and True, sentence to generate.

What the problem:
STW and true wind is not displayed on OpenCPN dashboard
VHW, VHT,and MWV true messages ate not observable in NMEA debug output from 10110 port
