Re: Complicated Network (Axiom, Nexus, FDX, GND10); Nothing in Expedition
Success! The data from the GND 10 seems to look just fine. The downside is that my GPS data doesn't come through...
We happened to have an Actisense NGT-1 sitting around the shop here at the marina so we threw that in and now I get all the data including GPS and AIS. Nice!
I also ordered the Yacht Designs NMEA 2000 wireless gateway, as it would be nice to share this sweet data with others. I will post the results of that experience here after I run some tests.
Thanks again for all of your help with all of this. Your help made all the difference!
Cheers!

Re: Complicated Network (Axiom, Nexus, FDX, GND10); Nothing in Expedition
I had to change the NX2 network, because server and some instrument broke down. Now changed to:
- Log/Speed/Wind Garmin NMEA 2000
- GND 10 connected to a very old Nexus server and some old instruments (cockpit and mast)
- two new Garmin instruments (GMI 20 and wind)
- AIS data via Wifi also providing GPS position, SoG/CoG
All data are visible in Expedition, but Navigation data is not transmitted to the NMEA 2000 network or Nexus instruments. Anything forgotten to set, but under instruments nothing can customized (unlike NMEA 0183 before) ?

Are you sending depth from Exp?

not that I am aware of, but maybe I overlook it. Where would be the setting for sending depth ?

Look at the settings pages for the various connections you have from Exp.

Hi Nick,
please help on the issue with the GND10 box. Data is received by Expedition, but nothing is transmitted to the Garmin instruments (see above configuration). There is no SOG/COG, no marks, not TWD, although all data is available in Expedition.
In the settings page there is one option called "send navigation information (set, drift and mark bearing, range, ttg &vcm)", but the option is light grey and cannot be selected.
Cannot find any other possibilty to select anything under GND10 box.
The GPS data is coming via WiFi from the AIS receiver. All worked fine with the Nexus FDX server before.

You could email me as I don't think I follow this.
To connect to the GND10, select GND10 as the instrument type.
Exp does not send any instrument data to GND10 - Sog & cog hould be from your GPS not Exp etc.
I see the GND10 USB port name has changed, so the send mark vars option is disabled. Have fixed that for the next update.
