4 Last update: opencpn:opencpn_user_manual:plugins:logs:nmea_converter /02/27 20:23 This is a completely useless sentence that is sent every second to OpenCPN. Check also the nmeadebug window in the picture above, and note that a checksum is added to the sentence. It is easy to change this one into something like: $GPRMC,085437,A, ,N, ,E,3.3,68.9,070614,0.3,E,A Just enter this line into the NmeaConverter > Preference > New > Edit box and Save it. No VDR file is needed. That will fake a GPS position into OpenCPN, but still not very usefull. Printed on 2019/03/20 16:45

The real power of this plugin is that you can change the data of the sent sentence by cherry picking from incoming sentences. The reason I wrote this plugin was I wanted Dashboard to show the air temperature. To get the data, Dashboard needs a $xxmta sentence, however I had a Airmar PB200 unit that is sending $xxmda sentences. An example: We have from the windset, MDA- Meterological (Obsolete) $WIMDA,30.1,I,1.0,B,11.3,C,,,,,,,18.6,T,18.5,M,5.8,N,3.0,M*27 and want: MDA- Air temperature $xxmta,11.3,c*<checksum> Note that the data needed is in fields 5 and 6 of the MDA sentence. (11.3 degrees Celcius) Setting the format to $XXMTA, $WIMDA5, $WIMDA6 will give an output sentence: $XXMTA, 11.3, C*26 Where $WIMDA5 is replaced by the 5th field of the $WIMDA sentence. etc. As seen above, the $XXMTA sentece is sent each time a $WIMDA sentence is received and read by
6 Last update: opencpn:opencpn_user_manual:plugins:logs:nmea_converter /02/27 20:23 Dashboard. For testing use VDR_pi or VDRplayer and run WIMDA+OCMDA.txt from this zip 3. Do math-convert units, e.g. Centigrade to Fahrenheit But what if I was living in the US and prefered the reading to be in degrees Fahrenheit? Just change the format to: $XXMTA, 9/5*$WIMDA5 + 32, F The value is recalculated and displayed as degrees Fahrenheit. Use the same file for testing use VDR_pi or VDRplayer and run WIMDA+OCMDA.txt from this zip 4. Force True Heading to COG In NMEAconverter create a HDG (compass) sentence from your COG. Possible use when the autopilot is old and does not receive heading (true or magnetic). Note: Since computation of the drift and surface current requires HDG, it is understood that while using Tactics_pi value for Current speed and direction will not be useful. All you will see is the speed difference between SOG and STW, which would force Current to be the vector component normal to the keel. That means the current display will always be directly from bow or stern, in other words the component of Printed on 2019/03/20 16:45
7 2019/03/20 16:45 7/17 NMEAconverter the current along the centerline of the boat, assuming your STW(speed through water) is calibrated correctly. See CF Tactics_pi Post #22. The nmea file being run by VDR_pi is vdr2 - copie.xls Tactics_pi and in particular, NMEAconverter_pi is using $XXHDT,$IIVTG1,$IIVTG2 Remember that setting HDT to COG will give you no drift angle at all (except maybe a small portion via the manual heel input), so you will not see any real current I suggest to set a fixed heel angle to 0 (see screenshot above), to avoid side effects with manual heel input at very low speeds and small speed differences between SOG and STW.

Changed wind speed unit from K to N 3. Deleted spaces after commas. 4. In terms of sog vs. stw, as pointed out, in most cases, diff is negligible I believe. 5. One thing about stw is that the sensor cannot capture the movement of a vessel due to tide (as high as 5 knots!). 6. For my purpose, gps is good enough.
10 Last update: opencpn:opencpn_user_manual:plugins:logs:nmea_converter /02/27 20:23 Observations by Rhythm Doctor: One needs to be careful with this calculation. There are at least two different syntaxes for the reporting of relative wind angle. The older VWR and VWT sentences for relative and true wind are not recommended for new devices, but there are many older devices and SeaTalk converters that still use them (specifically, my own instruments). The sentences look like this (with II talker ID in this example): $IIVWR,084.0,R,10.4,N,5.4,M,19.3,K $IIVWT,084.0,R,10.4,N,5.4,M,19.3,K Wind Angle R Right of vessel heading (L = Left) Wind Speed 4 N Wind Speed units Knots Wind Speed 6 M Wind Speed units Metres per second Wind Speed 9 K Wind Speed units Km/Hr Newer devices use the preferred MWV sentence structure that looks like this (with II talker ID in this case): $IIMWV,084.0,R,10.4,N,A $IIMWV,084.0,T,10.4,N,A Wind Angle R Relative (T = True) Wind Speed 4 N Wind Speed units Knots (K = KPH, M = MPH) 5 A Status (A= Valid) Note that VWR/VWT and MWV work totally differently: VWR provides wind angles from with an additional parameter of L or R, while MWV provides wind angles from with no L or R. Converting your obsolete VWR sentence to the more modern MWV sentence would seem to be impossible without a conditional if() statement, which appears to not be supported (since I was unable to get it to work). Here is the sentence that works best for me for converting VWR (relative/apparent wind) to VWT (true wind). Using the wildcard (instead of II, GP, or WI sender IDs) allows testing with others' VWR sentences, including Paul Elliot's test nmea files: $XXVWT,90-deg(atan(($??VWR3*cos(rad($??VWR1))- $??RMC7)/$??VWR3*sin(rad($??VWR1)))),$??VWR2,sqrt(sqr($??VWR3*sin(rad($??VWR1) ))+sqr($??vwr3*cos(rad($??vwr1))-$??rmc7)),$??vwr4,,,, Note that there is an invisible <return> character at the end of this sentence (after the four commas). In my testing, things don't work right without it. I recommend that you include it if you copy/paste this Printed on 2019/03/20 16:45
11 2019/03/20 16:45 11/17 NMEAconverter formula into the config dialog. Transmitter Dan advises: It is possible to replace the sender ID (GP or WI) with?? which means any sender ID will be accepted. Using the wildcard will allow Paul Elliot's test nmea file to work with the nmeaconverter formula, using Seatalk - vyacht dialect: $XXMWV,90-deg(atan(($??MWV3*cos(rad($??MWV1))- $GPRMC7)/$??MWV3*sin(rad($??MWV1)))),T,sqrt(sqr($??MWV3*sin (rad($??mwv1)))+sqr($??mwv3*cos(rad($??mwv1))-$gprmc7)),n,a Edit: In above formula's might be replaced by pi, and /180 can also be written as deg. Paul Elliot's Test Files 7. Prepare Barometer Sensor Output for Dashboard Aim The BMP180 pressure sensor output from Raspberry Pi/OpenPlotter uses the sentence $OSXDR. This cannot be read by Dashboard. BMP180 Output Units are Bars i.e 1000 times the reading needed for display - mbar/hectopascal. Any error in the output cannot be corrected. This formula creates an $xxmda (deprecated) or $xxxdr sentence that can be used by Dashboard. Conversion $MYXDR,P, /1000 * $OSXDR2,B,Barometer Deprecated: $MYMDA,,, /1000*$OSXDR2,,B,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,M (0.018 is an error correction and also adjusts the barometer pressure for a sea level reading) Applying the settings Found it necessary to tick the 'block incomming (sic) messages with wrong checksum' box when editing the sentence.
12 Last update: opencpn:opencpn_user_manual:plugins:logs:nmea_converter /02/27 20:23 When editing the sentence; starting a variable with '.' or '$' causes OpenCPN to freeze. Variables are being read by the plugin all the time and these characters are not recognised. Workaround is to type '0.' and then the number. Also 'OSXDR2' and then add the '$' in front, '$OSXDR2'.

13 2019/03/20 16:45 13/17 NMEAconverter 8. Fix incorrect ST60 Wind Speed Data Ratsea has fixed an incorrect Raymarine ST60 conversion. Problem Dashboard displays incorrect wind speed data when using the ST60 Multi NMEA Output. The data is treated as Km/hr as it has the K unit identifier and is converted to knots/m per sec/km/hr as per the Dashboard settings, it then incorrect as the data is already in Knots Aim Change the display units in the wind output sentence from ST60 Multi from K (kms/hr) to N (kts) as the Raymarine instrument incorrectly uses the K identifier for Knots and not the N, so that the Dashboard correctly displays the Wind Speed data in the units selected. Process Using the NMEA converter, apply the conversion to the MWV sentence with a new ID - xx: $xxmwv,$iimwv1,$iimwv2,$iimwv3,n,$iimwv5 and tick 'Send after update all variable' With the instrument switched on and receiving the actual live data shows in Blue. The NMEA datastream then becomes:
14 Last update: opencpn:opencpn_user_manual:plugins:logs:nmea_converter /02/27 20:23 $IIHDM,143,M*3A $IIMTW,025.2,C*26 $IIMWV,155,R,009.0,K,A*2E Input $xxmwv,155,r,9.0,n,a*2b Corrected, the input line is also shown on the dashboard, but too quickly to notice $IIVHW,,T,143,M,00.00,N,00.00,K*63 Caution Whilst developing this code, I found that using the formula: $IIMWV,$IIMWV1,$IIMWV2,$IIMWV3,N,$IIMWV5 would also work if the 'Send every (n) seconds' was ticked, but the Dashboard would flash between the two values of Km/sec and knots. If the Send after update all was ticked, then OpenCPN would freeze in a continuous loop trying to update the newly created NMEA sentence! 9. Use Wildcards Now it is possible to use wildcards in the identifiers. So you could make it talkerid independent by using something similar to...$??xxx3... and whatever character on the? position will cause a hit. Even more important, you might use it for special transducers sending the something like $OWXDR,H,...or $OWXDR,C... sentence. Note that field 1 is part of the identifier. As the comma is the nmea separator, you can not use it as an identifier string, but by using a wildcard it works. For example...$owxdr?h2... or $??XDR?H2... will work. Printed on 2019/03/20 16:45
15 2019/03/20 16:45 15/17 NMEAconverter 10. Convert Temperature C to Farenheit Using convert C to F for temp ( $XXMTA, 9/5*$AIMTW5 + 32, F) with send after all updates variables checked. As soon as I start to playback a NMEA stream via VDR plugin or VDRplayer.py OpenCPN crashes. A look at the O logs does not produce any clues. As a side note I have compiled and used the Tactics plugin with the same nmea file with VDRplayer and O and Tactics run just fine. You are using an..mtw sence. Format according my info: MTW - Mean Temperature of Water $ MTW,x.x,C_hh This sentence has only 2 fields available, the first one given the temp value and the second just 'C' for 'Celsius'. In your command sentence ($XXMTA, 9/5_$AIMTW5 + 32, F) ) You are requesting the 5th field of the MTW sentence, but that field does not exist. Try again with $XXMTA, 9/5*$AIMTW1 + 32, F Used new formula provided above.. Still Crashed. I removed the $Dummy entry that came with NmeaConverter_pi install. OpenCPN no longer crashes with NmeaConverter_pi enabled with a NMEA stream present..and as provided for above $XXMTA, 9/5*$AIMTW1 + 32, F is showing the Air Temp in F in Dasboard on O. I can never thank the volunteers enough for all these wonderful tools. 11. Contribute your Formulas & Conversions If you have an useful format formula please feel free to add it here. Another future possibility is to do a comparison lookup of a boat''s Polar data and send a special NMEA sentence of the comparative result to the Dashboard using a special dedicated performance instrument, for example.
