Just having a little play here from a post on openplotter forum, what does the Validate Checksum" actually do? Seems anything coming in a nmea1083 connection goes straight back out port 10110 🤔´SigK looks like it ignores anything it can't decode anyway?

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm trying to write a plugin that will schedule NMEA Switching while I'm away from the boat to save power and still have access to turn on things like the dehumidifier. I continue to run into permissions issues and I'm not sure the best way to get the permissions needed. I can send PUT commands from Postman, but when I try to replicate that in a plugin running on the server I get this
"Apr 18 15:40:00 Error turning OFF switch companionway at http://localhost/signalK/v1/api/vessels/self/electrical/switches/bank/45/11/state: You do not have permission to view this resource, <a href='/admin/#/login'>Please Login</a>"
I have retrieved a token given it admin access and used that in my PUT command. ...

In the data browser, some values are grouped, for example navigation.attitude roll, pitch and yaw. Under meta data, is there a way to assign different zones for them? The normal pitch range is much less than the roll one while yaw (not to confound with heading) goes the full circle, from -180° to +180°.

@Brandon Keepers no surprise, but activating dependabot created a bunch of PRs that need attention (at least some require some changes beyond the version bump)

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 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...
