Signal k NMEA0183 output
I’m still new to openplotter and signal k but I’ve gotten a usb gps puck to successfully send NMEA 0183 sentences to signal k and the server dashboard is showing incoming changes with a flashing “in” icon. I can access this gps data via wifi on port 10110 with an iPad without issue. Now I’m trying to get that same gps data to my vhf radio via the VHF’s NMEA 0183 accessory cable with no luck. Before I take the raspberry pi and gps to the boat again, I want to verify I’m getting good data out, but can’t seem to get anything to output.
My question is if I have signal k set up properly, should I be able to see a flashing “out” icon on the signal k dashboard? I have a serial connection named gpsout and nmea0183out (also tried nmea0183) listed for output events, but it doesn’t seem to do anything. I’ve been trying to dig into the documentation but can’t identify where I’ve gone wrong. Can someone point me in the right direction?
