Technical Q&A » Saving fleet information for tracking » 7/09/2022 8:50 am

Hello Expedition team,
is there a method to save the boat data when closing and reopening expedition for fleet tracking?

seems that every time I restart expedition all the time correction factors, start times, and polar files get cleared from the boats list.  Is there a way to save or export and reload it on startup?

thank you!
 

Software Releases » Sail Chart / List not Displaying with Optimal Routing » 4/14/2022 10:02 pm

Quick update from trying to work through it.

I can make the Sailing Performance Crossover charts work by reselecting the sail group for each sail to something differant than"Other" however these groups are not labeled and remain blank on the dropdown menue but they are selectable and allow optimal routing and Sail Next data to be populated.

Is their a formal way to set the sail groups in the Performance Yachting crossover charts?
 

Software Releases » Sail Chart / List not Displaying with Optimal Routing » 4/14/2022 9:28 pm

Hello,
After a recent update whenever I run optimal routing it fails to display any of the sail information from the sail crossover chart. 

I've attempted to reload the crossover chart as well as use a different one and re-run the optimal routing but does not populate in the results table. i am using the Sailing Performance style chart FYI, and I have never used the Sail List which seems to never match the chart but has never caused any issue so never worried about it.
Now for the really odd part, when I add a new sail to the cross-over chart it will display in the routing results table.

is there a change to the crossover charts that I need to do something different to allow it to be used by the optimal routing?

Thank you!  hoping I am just missing something here.

Doug

Finally getting back to sorting the AIS broadcast issue. saved a section of the data from both the nav station PC and the remote tablet for reference.  Could this be a settings issue?

Technical Q&A » AIS da » 8/05/2021 3:08 pm

Thanks for the quick reply,

it's a NAIS-500,  NMEA 1083 AIS instrument type with a 38400 Baud rate coming in via COM port (USB), , it looks normal and is received properly on the nav station laptop, but all scattered on the remote tablet.

on the remote tablet, I set up a UDP network connection and match the port and select NMEA 0183 AIS for the instrument type. 

Am I missing anything obvious?

Hello,

looking for a good way to share AIS data between multiple PC's onboard.

The boat has an H5000 system and AIS data is sent to nav PC via USB, looking for a solution to rebroadcast data via wifi to an on-deck tablet. I have tried the "broadcast received data" under the AIS connection channel and it appears to send the data but doesn't properly format the data and won't be properly read by the tablet. The 0183 sentences are sent as a continuous stream without the proper line breaks.

Is there a good stable way to share USB 0183 data from one instance of expedition to another via a wifi network?

Have tried to download images from all of the sources.

I am able to download the Australia BOM images, all others from any of the sources return the error.

Questions about Expedition features » Start mark pings from tablet to nav PC » 3/31/2021 10:44 pm

Hello, moving this discussion to a more appropriate board.Recently I set up a windows tablet running Expedition for use on a deck connected via a WiFi Expedition UDP network to a hardwired PC at the nav station.

I have position data and marks communicating between the two systems properly and I can initiate a start timer from the tablet, I am running into a problem when I ping the start line marks on the tablet it does not update the marks on the PC.

Is there a way to enable it so that if I ping a start mark on the tablet it updates the mark location on the nav station PC or vice versa?Any recommendations or suggestions?

Software Releases » No position or AIS data in Expedition connection after 11.8.6 » 3/30/2021 12:57 pm

Thank you for the quick reply Nick,

Understood on the AIS, I Will try to set up a UDP broadcast from the AIS com port.

I am using an expedition data type UDP network connection, sending and receiving numeric channel data but no position data is being received by the tablet. I was getting position data when I tested it before updating. 

Is there a specific RX/TX channel selection needed to get it to pass position data via the Expedition data connection?
