Concerning connection to OpenCPN, at the moment I have Laptop W10 witch a GPS puck connected to it and work just fine. With the Ultrasonic I would use the RS485 to USB module to make it work. On Android my intent is to use ESP32 via wifi/BLE for connection. Just to go little bit better I might replace the MCU on the Ultrasonic with an ESP32....why not!
Hi GMeloche,
I finally have my test system running:
Rpi 3 OpenPLotter, SignalK Server
RTL-SDR AIS
GPS by USB
Question: Should the GPS be software installed under SignalK Server or installed directly in OpenCPN (which I did) ?
What do you think is the best way to get our custom Anemometer data through SigkSens and into OpenPlotter? can SigkSens be added to , or use another ESP8266?
All these software library modules are much more complicated than my usual method of MCU-to-MCU over hard-wired UARTs
Cheers
