SignalK Source Priority
#1
I have 2 GPS devices attached to OpenPlotter, each of them outputs 13 SignalK fields (position, COG, SOG etc).

Is there a simple way to set one device as the default (or higher priority) device in SignalK?

I can go into "Server / Data Connections / Source Priorities Settings", but then I need to assign priorities for all 13 fields separately. Am I missing anything obvious?

Simple use case : if Maiana is powered on, I want to use its internal GPS since this is up on the pushpit. Otherwise I want to automatically fall back to the USB dongle in the cabin.

Sorry, no shortcut. Doing it by source would make sense, but nobody has implemented that yet.

Thanks for confirming tkurki. Should I raise an improvement suggestion somewhere?
