Struggling to get node red data into Kip
Hello. I don't think I have fully understood how to get data from node red into Kip. I am simulating a chain counter and receiving the data via UDP into node red. I then have a change node to set a message topic and a send pathvalue. I am seeing data in the data browser but I can't select the path in Kip. What do I need to do to get this to work?
nmea0183 over TCP-victron ekranos nothing seen
have been trying to use the signalK install on a Victron Ekrano, integrating with an nmea0183 network stream. I used my computer to verify that the TCP host:port combination is correct. However, I don't seem to be ingesting any data, and it is unclear to me what I should be doing in the 'server log' page to produce some debug information, as I assume there are some exceptions being thrown about something stupid I've done, but I cannot see them.
What is the best way to debug a 'data connection'? I've attached a screenshot of my configuration for the connection....
Alarms from zones & hysteresis
I stumbled upon this issue when one of the temperature measurements is bouncing between configured zones and sending excessive amounts of push notifications. See the attached photo (copied from web) which quite clearly describes the case. Usually, such issue has been solved by setting a hysteresis range, for example in case of a temperature measurement it could be from 0°C to 1°C. When T goes down to 0°C, alert is summoned, but in order to clear the alert, T must rise to 1°C or above. I'm sure everyone is aware of this solution.
The question is, how have you solved this, is there perhaps another plugin for triggering notifications or have you sorted it out with Node-RED? Or am I using zones wrong?...
Signal K Error Processing RMB message
Hi the moderator on the Signal K to "Raymarine Seatalk NG" thread on OpenMarine Forum suggested I contact you.
I find that when Signal K receives an RMB message from OpenCPN via a UDP connection it throws an error, which I don't fully understand. It seems to be related to a Null value for latitude even though there is no such value in the RMB message.
This error is preventing the Signalk-to-nmea2000 pluging providing navigation data required by autopilots....
