      Hi. I’ve done a mockup of the setup im considering installing in my boat.
      But i am unsure if i’m am able to use the nmea depth signal that is transmitted via wifi directly in navionics. Does anyone have any experience with this?
      In other words, is this setup going to work and allow me to use navionics with depth finder?

      I’ve added a picture of the setup.

        Thanks for your information. A026 supports NMEA 0183 input and output. As long as DST-2 can convert the depth data to be NMEA 0183 sentences and output from its NMEA 0183 output port, it should work. But we haven’t got a chance to test this setup. You probably also need our protocol bridge(AS03) if the output from DST-2 are not RS422 standard. Keep us updated, please.

          Thanks for the reply.

          My biggest concern is whether i can use the nmea 0183 sentences to show depth as a graph in navionics? Do you have any experience regarding this?

          Also i can see the dst-2 is using the RS485 standard, do i need a bridge or?
