openPlotter

Setup Pi:

  • see also
  • connect to UI (eg. VNC)
    • update openCPN
    • upgrade Raspbian
    • upgrade to openPlotter 0.17.1
    • Preferences > Raspberry Configuration > Interfaces > SSH:enable (Remote-access via WinSCP and Putty defaults pi:raspberry)
  • (sudo apt-get install tightvncserver (make RDP working))
  • sudo apt-get install can-utils
  • sudo apt-get install mc
  • update node
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_8.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt install nodejs
  • update signalk to latest
    • kill running signalk-server process
cd /home/pi/.config
rm -rf signalk-server-node_tmp
git clone https://github.com/SignalK/signalk-server-node.git signalk-server-node_tmp
cd signalk-server-node_tmp
npm install && npm run prepublishOnly
npm install mdns
cd /home/pi/.config
rm -rf signalk-server-node
mv signalk-server-node_tmp signalk-server-node
  • restart signalk in graphical-ui

Setup Android:

  • RDC from playStore (working)
  • aRDP free from playStore (suits my needs best)

Setup piCAN2:

  • (in case you want to play with virtual-can-interfaces) add to /etc/modules
vcan
  • add to /boot/config.txt
dtparam=spi=on
dtoverlay=mcp2515-can0,oscillator=16000000,interrupt=25
dtoverlay=spi-bcm2835-overlay
  • add to /etc/network/interfaces (might be overwritten by /home/pi/.config/openplotter/wifi_server.py!)
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
  • add to /etc/network/interfaces/interfaces.d/can0
#physical can interfaces
allow-hotplug can0
iface can0 can static
bitrate 250000
down /sbin/ip link set $IFACE down
up /sbin/ifconfig $IFACE txqueuelen 10000
  • (in case you want to play with virtual-can-interfaces) add to /etc/network/interfaces/interfaces.d/vcan0
#virtual can interfaces
auto vcan0
iface vcan0 inet manual
pre-up /sbin/ip link add dev $IFACE type vcan
up /sbin/ifconfig $IFACE up
  • restart interfaces
service networking restart
  • check interfaces (can0 and vcan0)
ifconfig
  • install canboat
mkdir ~/canboat
cd ~/canboat
sudo apt-get install xsltproc
git clone git://github.com/canboat/canboat
cd canboat
sudo make
sudo make install



  • add to /home/pi/.openplotter/openplotter-settings.json (OP ver 0.17.1)
{
  "id": "n2k-can0",
  "pipeElements": [
    {
      "type": "providers/execute",

    },
    {
      "type": "providers/n2k-signalk"
    }
  ]
}

configure kplex and signalk

  • 'Signal K Server Plugin Configuration' > activate 'Convert Signal K to NMEA0183'
    • select sentences you are interested in
  • NMEA0183 (this is kplex) > Advanced >
    • add input channel tcp:localhost:10110
    • remove filter at opencpn out channel
[tcp]
name=signalk_in
direction=in
address=localhost
port=10110

[tcp]
name=opencpn
direction=out
mode=server
port=10109
