Hello everybody,
Need some advice and/or info.
JRC JLR20 was installed on board, which was destroyed by lightning. The JLR20 was used for autopilot, radar, plotter and AIS. I would like to replace it with SC30, but I don't have IF-NMEASC. I only have IF-NMEA2K2. The autopilot is Simrad AP50. I connected everything ok, and have heading on autopilot, but only when IF-NMEA2K2 "Normal" settings. When it is set to "High speed" the autopilot loses heading. I think that the AP50 not accept 38,400 bps but only 4,800. According to the IF-NMEA2K2 instructions, 4,800 bps is only available at the "Normal" settings, but at the same time the "update rate" is only 1s. Am I right? So, 1s update rate is slow for autopilot and my question is: is it possible to set IF-NMEA2K2 at 4,800 bps with a 100ms update rate? somehow?
Thanks
Nick
