3rd Test about rudder

set alarm to 0-15:
- amidship, shown: rudder is within the limits
- port either starboard more than 15 degrees: rudder is off limits and pop-up window of alarm.
- coming back inside -15 to 15 and alarm reset.

good track

I have also anemometer, but I'll need a little explanation about how it works? because my poor old brain is going to melt, I do not see clear the setup of this alarm

Watchdog pi does not start on Android 11, Samsung Galaxy Tab A.
Actual Opencpn app restarts and de-activates the pi.

Ideas for improvement for watchdog
- Added alarm "Course" enabled visual display. When the alarm state is not turned off, visual display vectors are always shown. It is logical that they would be displayed only when the alarm is turned on.
The heading alarm uses COG or HDT to operate and does not use the bearing to the active waypoint in any way. It would be better if XTE was used.
- On/off checkboxes need more clear toggles, like on ios.
- Message window, when a repeated alarm occurs, a new message window appears each time. The message box should be displayed once. The message window should not be standard. Font with large letters and red background.

[bdbcat]

Baikal...
Good ideas all.
The best chance to get them implemented is simply filing a set of RFE's on the related github page. Otherwise, they are lost in the traffic.



Thanks
Dave

Corsair,
The interface is a little clever but very flexible.

You need to add a new alarm to the menu first by selecting the alarm.

Then you need to edit it. Please look at the plugin manual, found through the User Manual. https://opencpn.org/wiki/dokuwiki/do...n:manual_basic

4th WD test about wind.
- Apparent wind, works well
- True Relative, doesn't work, I have GPS and anemometer.
- True Absolute, doesn't work, I have above plus fluxmeter (Auto pilot)

some NMEA sentences filtered for better display, but I receive all string at the same time.

Updated to latest WD version 2.4.61.0

in this version the anchor watch circle has disappeared.

attached screen shot of it, after editing the position.

I've made a quick view and fix of WD Spanish translation in Crowdin

What platforms? Windows?

Hi Dave,

Yes, windows 11 Pro ARM64, also in windows 11 Pro x64.
attached screenshot now for win11 x64.
and the distance is not coincident with the range rings that are set to 0.1 mile.

"the distance is not coincident with the range rings that are set to 0.1 mile."
Sorry, I am not clear on this point.

Someone could think that the anchor guard ring and the range rings should be on top of each other.
but the range rings are set to 0.1 miles and the anchor watch ring is twenty-five metres, so there is no place for being one on top the other. for clarification only.

I have setup Anchor Watchdog on v5.9.4-1 under Unbuntu 22.04 LTS which works but the command option doesn't work. If have a sh script file that sends an email which works from my terminal but not from OpenCPN. I have tried placing the script in various folders but no joy, any help would be appreciated.

Following mine above about wind alarm.

Also have to say that there is some strange behavior when exchanging from type of wind to another.

e.g. setup the wind alarm in max speed of 25 in apparent mode.
now you exchange to true relative, and the wind exchange itself to some strange amount 116 either 132 or so on.
same if you exchange to true absolute but it uses to keep in same speed figure when you come back to apparent.
for the time being only working for me the apparent mode even I have GNSS, speed log and compass.
