Use Signal K to get Alternator Data to NMEA
I would like to get Zeus alternator data to an NMEA network from a Cerbo,. The Cerbo does not directluy publish the PGNS 127506/127508 for the alternator, however, the data can be seen in Signal K.
In Signal K to NMEA Plugin there is a data transfer for Battery Mapping, which requires a Signal K Battery ID. Is there a correlation for the alternator data, which is essentially a battery PGN, such that the Battery ID can be filled with the alternator ID. What is this ID that the Plugin is looking for?

@Scott Bender, could we get a "alternator as battery" map, same as there is a solar as battery map in the SK->N2k plugin?
Also, it would be great if inverter ac inputs and outputs could be mapped to PGNs 127503/127504 (these are deprecated, but many devices still use these as opposed to the new PGNs) and 65013/65014, the new PGNs.
