You do not have to modify default opencpn settings. Remove all your changes there and create only an input: TCP localhost 10110
You need to do nothing in kplex either. Remove all your manual settings.
Assign your GPS in serial tab to GPSD and that is all. Openplotter will send all dat to TCP 10110.

Is this still valid in 2.0? I've added the USB puck in serial, Added to GPSD in connections, and set up input in OpenCPN, yet Opencpn does not receive any GPS data. I have opened the NMEA debug window in OpenCPN and no data is received.
EDITED: (For others to learn from my mistakes - the list is getting long - maybe my own "f.ckup forum")
I have a simple BU-353 USB "puck" for my setup. Adding it as GPSD in serial didn't do me any good - no data was sent to OpenCPN.
BUT by removing it, and adding it as a SignalK connection, everything is grand and dandy and OpenCPN once again receives GPS data. Onward to next challenge!
