Has anyone injected PGN's onto the N2K bus from a PC? I'm especially interested in how to do this directly without using an Actisense NGW-1 which translates 0183 to 2000. The reason I don't want to use the NGW-1 is I think I have found a minor problem with the NGW-1 2000 to 0183 translation under certain GPS positions.
I'd like to inject the PGN's onto the bus using an Actisense NGT-1.
I've looked at software products like NMEAStudio from Sailsoft. it unfortunately does not output NMEA 2000 PGN's. Instead it relies on the NGW-1 to translate 0183 to 2000.
All suggestions welcome.
If you are comfortable with UNIX (style) code and willing to invest time in the format of the PGNs you want to send you can use CANboat, see the bottom part of https://github.com/canboat/canboat/wiki/n2kd_monitor and https://github.com/canboat/canboat/wiki/List-product-information
Thanks Kees
I am familiar with UNIX coding having done quite a lot of UNIX/LINUX development. Right now I'm using the NMEAStudio to try to reproduce my problem.
