Navionics app cannot take data from OPlotter or any other systems except in certain cases that takes depth data for bathymetry but not for GPG or AIS.We take a look at 6 of the best boat GPS options available right now, from handheld devices to tablet apps But you can use both or even all three at once. If you only want to control AIS data and alarms, OCpn on Android is the best option for you.

But I like to have Android's Openpn running at the same time and receiving OPlotter data via wifi because I like to hear the ship bells and AIS alarms sound too. I use VNC because -my- OPlotter's OpenCpn loads MBTiles maps and I have MBTiles made with Navionics maps that I like to use and I can't use them in Android, only in OPlotter. In my opinion both using VNC and OpenCpn on Android have their advantages.

Even so, many people use a simple mobile phone application as a anchor alarm of the many that are in GPlay. If you're talking about something more sophisticated, you already have the idea of Jim321 going one step further.Ī simple, USB-powered, auto-powered speaker connected to the Rpi's audio output is enough to wake you up in case any alarm sounds, I have checked it out myself. I use it with my rugged phone at the tiller and it's going very well. The same loudspeaker will sound the anchor alarms and all the others.īut if you talk about making it sound on the tablet, the easiest way is to use the Android version of OpenCpn feeding on the NMEA0183 data that you will receive via wifi from the Rpi. An amplified speaker connected to the Rpi's sound output is required for this sound to be heard. In the case of AIS alarms, these generate an alarm sound in openCpn that can be selected at will.

Tablet in the rudder with navionics app and when i need with vnc viewer for ais (this what i suppose) RSPi3 with 7inch screen in the navigation table inside the boat (with AIS) performing opencpnĢ. I'm waiting for Moitessier hut, and my configuration is going to beġ. OT: Pinguino, in your opinion it's better to use the vnc viewer in the tablet or taking datos from wifi and use opcpn in the tablet? Let's me try.I would like to know if there is some possibile sound alarm sistem with little consumption of energy, that is stand alone and is sufficent to wake up a person (anchor alarm)
