I have the following instruments I'm trying to connect to OpenPlotter:
1) Raymarine ST4000+ autopilot - SeaTalk 1
2) Raymarine ST60+ Wind - SeaTalk 1
3) Raymarine i50 TriData - SeaTalk1/SeaTalk-NG
4) Onwa KS-200-A AIS black box.
The docs for the Onwa say that AIS output data conforms with NMEA0183 V3.01, and that 2 of the 8 bare wires on the power/data cable (white & blue) are to be connected to the navigational equipment. No further details provided. I see how I can connect/convert the first 3 items to a NMEA2000 backbone, then connected to a SH-RPI hat, but not sure how to connect the Onwa. Does it have to connect directly to the NMEA2000 or can it connect directly to OpenPlotter somehow via USB?
