This Add on is a tools to use the DC simulated in NVGate. It provide a GPS and can deal the weather station.
Download
Latest version (20.11.2020) can be donwloaded here : DC simulated manager V1.00
Configuration needed :
- NVGate 2021 or upper
- DC simulated channels (ORNV-VIDC option)
GPS
We have 2 ways to acquire the GPS position, android phone or GPS Compliant with NMEA 0183 standard.
Serial GPGGA GPS
We are compatible with GPS USB Serial Interface Compliant with NMEA 0183 standard GPGGA
We can advice the GPS USB Navilock NL-602U but other GPS will work.
Android GPS
GPS data can also be retrieved using Android ADB (Android Debug Bridge). If you plug your android phone, we can inject the GPS position inside NVGate.
Procedure:
- Activate android developers option. ( To enable developer options, on android settings/"about phone" tap the Build Number option 7 times. - Enable USB debugging (on developers options menu)
process is here
- Plug your android phone with USB plug on the PC. - Allow the incoming USB debugging connection and check "always allow from this computer".
You can test the connection using the ADB connection button.
Also be sure the GPS is enabled on your phone, then you need to have an application which is running and using the GPS at the foreground of the phone (exemple: Google Maps or GPS Data)
How to used
Once the gps is plugged and configured, click on inject data, this will put the value on the DC simulated inputs.
Then you can use these channels on NVGate.
If you need to record the data.
click on connect input, go on DC input tab, then drag and drop the DC simulated channels on recorder.
If you have record the data you will be able to create a .gpx file
Creating and visualize .gpx file
We can create a .gpx from an .oxf (OROS) signal file.
Be aware than big size, .oxf signal file signal can be too long to create a .gpx , in this case you need to re-record the signal with only the.gps channels.
You need to click on Convertsignaltogpx.
This will open the windows below.
Select the signal file than you need to convert and click on load data. You can modify the channels if needed. Click on create .gpx. The .gpx will be put on the folder "attachement" of the NVGate project.
If you want to visualize the .gpx we advice to use the website : https://www.gpsvisualizer.com/ Clicking on "Click here to visualize the .gpx on a website" opens an website allowing you to plot the gpx on a map.
Weather station
Manual
The user can enter manually the weather value.
Davis instruments weather station
You need the 3 elements to make it work.
