barnaclebill - Just spent 2 hours inserting Ser...

Just spent 2 hours inserting Serial.print() in the Timo NMEA0183 library only to eventually figure out that the UM982 RTK GPS module sends sentences longer than the maximum 82 chars. 🤯 $GNRMC,025027.00,A,4740.26087198,N,12219.44828912,W,0.002,171.0,040425,14.4,E,A,C*6A (length: 84) This is probably going to be a fact of life for GPS at this level of precision (not that I really need to know where my boat is to a few millimeters, but I'm getting accurate heading info now, not just COG). Can SK handle non-compliant sentences like this? I haven't plugged the module into the boat SK RPI yet....

I'm getting a lot of errors like these, can anyone point me in the direction to look to resolve them?

I seem to always be looking at an Ai for command line options for the likes of npm, would be be worth adding some overviews to the server documentation? Like..? (formatted for obsidian)

I'm getting a breaker tripped alarm from a Maretron CLMD16 it comes about once per second and SK doesnt seem to know how to handle it. Maybe it's not formatted properly I don't know. I'm looking for suggestions on how best to deal with it. Yes the alarm is showing properly in the Maretron system and it seems to be a quirk of the CLMD's that the only way to clear a triped breaker alarm is to reset the breaker first and then actually reset the whole device. When I do reset the device the alar...

I noted that in the Data Browser, using Meta Data, you can not choose the units for acceleration (m/s²) nor for the magnetic field value (T or perhaps the more usual µT). Both unit types are missing. These are used with accelerometers, magnetometers and magnetic compasses.

juans#0046 - Hello everyone, and thank you for ...

Hello everyone, and thank you for your work, it's incredible! I have a B&G Vulcan 7 plotter connected via NMEA 2000 to OpenPlotter. Vulcan 7 receives Seatalk1 data (wind, depth, log speed). The ST4000+ autopilot receives APB and RMB via NMEA 0183 from OpenCPN. Now the question is, can I use the Vulcan 7 plotter to send a waypoint to the ST4000+ autopilot via NMEA 2000?...

npm link issue . I just started a new project today on version 2.13.2 brand new install on pi5. When I set up the npm link and restart the server I can see the new link in the node_modules directory, but no new plugin in the plugin config and no error or other messages from that code in the server log. When I've done this in the past it instantly shows up ??? I also tested by downloading a known good plugin from github set up the link and the same thing no errors and no config. So then I...

Bug or odd behavior w/ Data Browser (w/ notifications paths). If I view json via http://localhost:3000/signalk/v1/api/vessels/self/ I see a well formed entry for: notifications.tanks.freshWater.starboard.currentLevel (w/ $source: "self.notificationhandler")...

Might be worth including this in the alert notifications conversation as they sound like they overlap.

I'm new here so apologies if this is the wrong channel. I'm in the process of implementing handlers in n2k-signalk for the windlass PGNs (128776, 128777, 128778). Does anyone have any suggestions for where in the full model I should root the signalk data? There is <vessel>.navigation.anchor, but that doesn't feel right because it's not really navigation information, and also NMEA2000 allow for multiple windlasses, so the final path would be something like <vessel>.navigation.anchor.<RegExp>.wind...

Has anyone ever had the top right menu in Signalk (Restart, Login/out) disapear?

Quick one, is there a sort of overview of what files live where for sigK? Was thinking of doing something for the boat then it might be worth being tidy & sharing something, I've a few cruising buddies who aren't computer savvy at all & it's all a bit daunting at the start, they need all the help they can get 🙂 What file format though? I'm huge fan of obsidian now so markdown will be the starting point. Even if there is I might come up with something later after a bit of real boatwork, being wr...
