Slow output from signalk-to-nmea0183
I need some help with the signalk-to-nmea0183 plugin. Data is coming out only every 60 seconds. The data originates from sksim and I can see that the data is being output from sksim about every 2 seconds. I can see that in the "Signal K Output" window of sksim, and also I see data changing in KIP at approximately 2 second intervals. However, when I connect TZ iBoat to the TCP port, I only see data every 60 seconds. I assume this is the rate it is coming out of signalk-to-nmea0183.
Questions:
1. Is there any place in signalk-to-nmea0183 to set the output rate?
2. Is there another way to see the output rate of the NMEA data on TCP?
3. Are there other ways to debug or understand this problem?
Additional details:
Signal K is running under openplotter on a raspberry pi 5, connected to my home wifi. An iPad connected to the same wifi network is running TZ iBoat which is the consumer of the NMEA data over TCP. The log in TZ iBoat shows data coming in only every 60 seconds. The only NMEA sentence I'm sending from signalk-to-nmea0183 is RMC (I was sending others but reduced it to just this for debug).
Please let me know if other information would be helpful. I appreciate any help with this, thanks!
