Re: Navionics Boating Hd Cracked 20

Also missing from Boating v14.1 are calculations for Closest Point of Approach (CPA) and Time of (TCPA), along with a sortable list of current targets. And these are critical items if and when you seriously use AIS as an aid to collision avoidance.
The top left screen above shows how iNavX handles the WiFi device IP address setup that Navionics has tried to protect users from but will add as a secondary connection method. It does indeed look frighteningly geeky. How the heck, for instance, did boating come to involve the difference between TCP and UDP, and how do you find those numbers on the source device anyway?
[Background: I have a phone and a tablet, and I want to use both at the same time with AIS (receive only) & GPS which is coming from my on-board WiFi NMEA source, which comes via my on-board WiFi router. These are plain and simple things, and all checks out with a laptop running OpenCPN.]
Now Navionics is, I believe, originally an Italian company now owned by Garmin. The software stack for its app must be very different from all the various software stacks at Garmin, and it looks like there has been no deveopment since 2019 which is very worrying.
But, sorry, I have little experience using UDP to transmit boat data to nav apps, as TCP usually seems to work better for me.
Have you tried contacting Navionics tech support about your UDP issues?
Yes I am on the same version on Android.
The TCP works fine, except that only one Navionics device at a time can use it.
But the UDP seems to be exactly as it was in JUly 2019: broken auto-detect.
And these things are still missing from the Boating App, using TCP or UDP:
-Display of ROT, COG, SOG and Heading on each target.
-AIS targets search (depending on what you mean by that)
-Targets on the map will reflect proportionally the actual size of each vessel.
Further background:
My AIS/GPS source is a UK Quark-Elec A026 with coax inputs from a GPS antenna and a dedicated AIS antenna and a WiFi ouput of NMEA sentences. It sits at 192.168.8.60 static IP address and connects to the boat router on 192.168.8.1 which is a GL,inet Mango V2. Any device needing AIS & GPS connects to the WiFi router using standard WiFi login and DHCP and then can see the source at 192.168.8.60. OpenCPN on laptop and also a phone checks this all works fine for both TCP (which I have been using for a couple of years) and UDP (which I enabled on my A026 today after a wifi firmware upgrade).
As a convenience, but not really relevant, I have an old mobile phone permanently plugged in to a USB charger with a Greek SIM in it which the router links to (by WiFi) as its WAN, so the phone and tablet both have Internet access at the same time as seeing the GPS & AIS data.
Hi , i have this working. There is some openwrt knowledge needed, but it is very doable.
I have it working on an rutx11 router.
You need to install kplex, amd configure it, and then do nmea forwarding to the router itself with the kplex port. Then connect your boating app to the same router and port. In the end you will have an nmea tcp proxy, so not only for the gps data but for any nmea data.
Save the file and restart the router.
Open the gps nmea section on the router and set nmea forwarding to the routers ip address with port 10110 tcp. And then set forwarding enable on every nmea sentence you like.
On the ipad; open boating app and add a new connection to the routers ip address and port 10110 tcp.
Thats it.
@icetool: finally got everything in place to try your advice to install kplex. I got it onto the router and unpacked it. But the opkg install command will not work. Please look at the below. Any advice is extremely appreciated!
Navionics is certainly the best-known name among recreational captains. Navionics supplies the digital nautical charts for a large number of plotter manufacturers. So it made sense to create an app for the two operating systems "iOS" from Apple and "Android" from Google, a navigation programme of its own for all areas of recreational navigation. The English manual for "Navionics Boating" app, illustrated with over 400 colour screenshots, describes in detail all functions on iPad, iPhone or many Android devices. With "Navionics Boating" you are choosing one of the best GPS navigation programmes for recreational boating. Navionics Boating is one of the easiest and most innovative apps of its kind to use. The English manual for the "Navionics Boating" app is the only manual in English and the ideal companion for anyone who wants to get to know and master all the functions. All functions and their operation are described accurately and carefully in the manual. Every function and every control element is not only described, but also illustrated on colour screen shots. Since the display and operation on tablet and SmartPhone sometimes differ significantly, the details are explained for both devices side by side. This way you can learn how to operate any function in no time at all, regardless of which device you use. Of course, it is also an excellent reference if you want to refresh your knowledge after a longer break or need to change settings that are only changed very rarely. Thanks to the practical spiral binding in A5 landscape format, you can fold it over completely and place it on the table even when space is tight and have both hands free to operate the app. A particular advantage of the spiral binding is also that the risk of the pages being turned undesirably by wind, for example, is reduced to an absolute minimum.
