The Nmea3Wifi as an Analyser Tool for the SeaTalk1 bus

[Luis Sa]

Hello,

In order to show the capabilities of the Nmea3Wifi multiplexer as an analyser/debugger of the SeaTalk1 bus we injected by an external device all the known datagrams (plus an unknown at the end) and, at the same time, we set the Nmea3Wifi multiplexer to read the SeaTalk1 input (we need to check one of the ST routing boxes or the SeaTalk1 input will be ignored). We entered Debug mode and with "ST>NMEA MODE" equal to 2, we got the following debug messages:

The NMEA3WIFI is a little gem. I'm very happy with it.
