n2k Heading True Derived Data
Hi all!
Im getting N2k via the YDWG-02 dongle. It seems I’m not getting "Heading True" which is needed for the Derived-Data in order to calculate TWA & TWS. Im getting Heading True from the NEMA 0183 connection, but I only want to use N2K.
According to the YDWG-02 manual YDWG-02 NMEA 2000 --> NMEA 0183 converter is able to calculate True Heading. Magnetic variation is used in RMC, HDT, HDG, VDR, VHW, VTG. Priority of variation PGNs: 127250, 127258, 65311
I have a hard time understanding what to do with the above so was wondering if Derived Data or another plug can calculate Heading True?
maybe @Scott Bender has an idea?
