Does OpenCPN ingest data from a B&G H5000?

[HeliosJim]

Hi All...

I'm wondering if OpenCPN can ingest data from a B&G H5000, either from the N2K bus or ethernet? I realize much of the data is available in standard PGNs but some of the data, like target boat speed (TBS) is published in proprietary PGNs.

Thanks very much...

OpenCPN can connect to NMEA0183 via Serial or Ethernet, and NMEA2000 via a few wired devices, but not Ethernet. NMEA0183 support is more complete, only a subset of N2K PGN's are understood. Proprietary PGNs and Sentences are not supported.
