Thanks Kees

I understand the 42 BT can convert seatalk to NMEA on inputs 4a 4b, so
I was hoping someone might of already gone through the pain to get the
best result for the set-up.

Could I ask Meindert if he agrees this is the way to get the best out
of the 42 BT?

I've got the feeling your solution is the right way Kees, thanks
again.

Regards


Following Kees suggestions I have the yeoman working and have data, but
I can't send waypoints to the chart plotter from the yeoman, also I
don't seem to be able to benefit from data for winchart on my pc?



Hi 'autopilot',

I'm haven't tried sending waypoints _to_ the Yeoman; I use mine only to
send waypoints from Yeoman to GPS, does that work? I guess one problem
would be what the name of the waypoint would be, as the Yeoman only has
numeric waypoint ID's, and formatted z9999 as well (eg. 00001, 00002
etc.) if I remember correctly.

I also don't understand what you're trying to accomplish specifically
with Winchart, please elaborate a little. When you do, please also tell
us what _does_ work (e.g. do you get GPS data in Winchart? Then at least
one direction is OK.)

Note that there are many different NMEA sentences; it's like a maze of
twisty passages, all different. You may have to experiment with any and
all equipment's NMEA sentence settings.
