NGT-1 on Win11Arm with Exp
I'm having trouble after an emergency upgrade to a NGT-1.
My previous USB/NMEA interface was dead when I got to the boat this morning to start race prep.
I was able to source an NGT-1. After some work I was able to get the drivers installed and get it working with Actisense tools and NMEA Reader.
However, Expeadition only shows the port as closed. I have reboot several times but nothing has worked!
HELP!

It seems to be a ExpArm issue. I installed the Navionics x64 build and that was able to open the com port.

Re: NGT-1 on Win11Arm with Exp
Actisense doesn't have an ARM64 DLL.
I have asked, but ...
The best solution for ARM is a Digital Yacht iKonvert.

Re: NGT-1 on Win11Arm with Exp
Thanks - I was able to race running he x64 version of Exp to use NGT-1 for the fastnet.
However, some of the insturments weren't reporting to expedition correctly --- the most anoying was the BSP was roughly 80%.
I don't know if this was an artifact of running the x64 in an emulated environment or if it is an NGT-1 issue or an issue on our mostly B&G NMEA2k setup.

Re: NGT-1 on Win11Arm with Exp
Unless you have calibration set in Exp, the bsp will be the value being received from the network.
If you have multiple sensors, you need to select the correct one.
