Raymarine AXIOM and NMEA0183

Image
Updated 2021-07-24 ! Many newer MFD:s don't have any  NMEA 0183(N1) connector. The   Axiom don't even have any Seatalk NG connector anymore, just the Device Net micro connector for NMEA 2000. Loosing the  N1 info, too for example the old VHF ( position data for DSC),   could be a problem so how to solve it ? Some solutions Pick N1 data from the AIS NMEA 2000, N2 to N1 konverte r SeaTalk NG, NG to N1 konverte r

AIS dispatcher, stand alone

Image
Updated 2021-07-14 ! The dispatcher " aisdispatcher "(AISD), Linux v1.2, from AISHub.net receives NMEA 0183 VDM/VDO messages , (NAIS) via an UDP/TCP connection, or serial interface, and forwards it to one or several destinations as UDP streams. It works at command line with no GUI. Please note ! This software is "labeled" deprecated and the AISHub guys recommend you to use this package , with built in GUI, instead. The old version, described in this post,  still works, for RPi OS before Bookworm , and is very lightweight. The best AIS application ?  is found here  !

MySQL and NodeRed

Image
Updated 2021-07-07 ! Sometimes the syntax for the Javascript in Node-Red is a little hard to get, despite some Googling. This was evident when i tried the run the " node-red-node-mysql " node inserting data in a MySQL database. Also timestamps in different environments are a little complicated. So this post will cover both areas with some code examples done on a Raspberry Pi.
