Hi All,

I'm in a personal project of a remote mapping boat using Pixhawk and Lowrance Elite 5 ti sounder.

I would llike to use the Lowrance transducer and the Pixhawk GPS separately in Reefmaster Live data, so I could use a RTK GPS in pixhawk controller to achieve more accuracy.

There's no problem reciving data from the Internal GPS of Lowrance sounder via wifi and virtual port.

When I try to import the nmea data that "Mission planner" exports through a serial virtual com port, it doesn't work. Anyway other software as OpenCPN can read this nmea data from mission planner.

Any idea about what is happening?
Thanks in advance.

More info about this issue:

The nmea sentences I'm trying to import in Live Data are: $GPGGA $GPRMC
It seems that the sentences format are correct but Reefmaster can't recognise them.
Is anything related with the trial version of the program?

thanks

Hi,
Would it be possible to share one of these NMEA log files with us so that we can take a look? If so, please send to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .

Hi PauG.
