Pypilot added to existing NMEA 0183 nav instruments
#1
Our generic NMEA 0183 nav instruments work just fine, but the LCD displays are "sunburned" and almost unreadable. Openplotter2 + OpenCPN 5.2 on RPi4 newly installed and working well. Now I need to drive the existing, working, autopilot (fluxgate compass, rudder angle sensor, linear drive). I'm assuming Pypilot can do the job. What do I need to do to make this work? Serial NMEA (APB) connection for data output from RPi4 back to nav instruments? Or does Pypilot directly accuate the linear drive?
