Connecting NASA Wind sensor
#4
Hello,

I made the changes like suggested but there still no data incomming from the adapter.

I tryed to make it with kplex. The configuration is as follows:
[tcp]
name=kplexin
direction=in
optional=yes
mode=client
persist=yes
retry=10
address=10.10.10.1
port=10110

[udp]
name=kplexout
direction=out
optional=yes
address=10.10.10.1
port=10110


###end of OpenPlotter GUI settings

###Manual settings
[serial]
name=wndvhf
direction=both
optional=yes
filename=/dev/ttyOP_wndvhf
baud=4800
ifilter=+**MWV:-all
ofilter=+**GLL:+**GCA:+**RMC:+**GNS:-all
strict=no

This seems to work, but I think that the Kplex is slowing down the system and the Opencpn doesnt respond in real time any more. I cant see the wind direction and speed until I open the diagnostic window in Kplex. Then the apparent wind direction and speed apear on dashboard. Opencpn also becomes slowly. This could be because of the Raspberry 3b+ has limited resources.

The MWV sentence I get from the sensor:
$WIMWV,N,A*2C
$WIMWV,N,A*20
$WIMWV,276,R,0

by closer look I saw that sometimes the sentence doesnt include data, is empty.

I assume that Hardware is working. Could there be another aproach to get it work in signalk?
