Signal K to YDWG-02
#1
Can anyone help with connecting a YDWG-02 to Signal K? I am trying to get gps data from the pi to my NMEA 2000 network. I have a new install of openplotter on a raspi 4. The Signal K sever is connected to the YDWG server set as Raw, UDP, Both. I can see the NMEA 2000 data (speed, depth, water temp) on the Signalk instrument panel but no gps data from the Pi on the Raymarine i70s multi display. The signalk to nmea2000 plug-in seems to me working a small I can see location strings in the signal k sever log. Should the i70s see the sk sever as a transducer?

Any help would be appreciated.

The SeatalkNG network will "see" the YDWG-02 as a "device." I'm not sure that signalk sends data back out over UDP. I thinking I read something that SK won't send over UDP. Try switching to TCP and see if that works. I've had issues also, so I'm not sure that I can help you any further, as I don't know much more and definitely don't know the "why" of it.

try to install in SK: plugin "signalk to nmea2000" from here you define which sk data should be send to 2000.
you will need to activate GPS. normaly it goes per network to UDP 10110 but you also are able to define an serial CAN device to send your data to the CAN-Bus.

report us, if this works for you.

Thanks for the reply, reminded me that I wanted to come back and post the fix.

I found out from the developer of WilhemSK (great app) that SignalK does not transmit nmea2k over a UDP connection. I changed to TCP and the data flows both ways.

I'm also struggling to figure out how to broadcast NMEA 2000 to other apps on the network.

In the https://github.com/SignalK/signalk-to-nmea2000 plugin I've defined which messages I want the plugin to handle, but I'm not seeing any way to define the broadcast address/port. Does it default to 10110? The SK server configuration settings at /admin/#/serverConfiguration/settings indicate that NMEA 0183 is sent over TCP to port 10110.
