jensvanhoof Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Hi, I'm trying to relay NMEA data to a second computer's COM port in my network. I need only the $GPRMC and $GPGGA sentences. In FSX on my main computer, I've selected those two sentences and on the main computer's COM port this works fine. On my 2nd computer, these sentences are also present, however the $GPGSA sentence appears also. This is something I'd like to avoid because I'm working with some hardware that doesn't like data it cannot work with. I've tried adding a sentence parameter, but this doesn't seem to work on WideClient, this is an extract from WideClient.ini: [GPSout] Sentences=RMC,GGA Port=COM3 Speed=4800 Is this something that is possible? Thanks! Cheers, Jens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't WideClient which extracts the data and makes the sentences, it is FSUIPC. The Sentences parameter only ever goes into the FSUIPC settings -- but you select the sentences in the FSUIPC options tab for it! WideClient only receives sentences which FSUIPC sends it, no more. So you evidently have the GSA sentence sleected in FSUIPC! BTW you posted your question in the "FAQ" subforum, which is NOT a support place -- you are lucky I saw it. Please ALWAYS post questions to the main support forum. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jensvanhoof Posted September 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Allright Thanks. I doublechecked, 'GSA' is not selected screenshot: http://www.jensvanhoof.be/Untitled.png On my main computer running FSUIPC the GSA sentence is not relayed either, as advertised. So there it works fine. However on the client side it does. Anywhere else it could come from? Cheers, Jens PS sorry for the wrong forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Jens PS sorry for the wrong forum There's no code to make sentences in the Client, so I've really no idea. Try logging the stuff being received in the Client -- Log=PartRX should do the trick. The GPSout data received from FSUIPC should be logged (plus other stuff I think).

That GPSout is not sending to WideClient in any case, but COM13. Maybe you are using GPSout2 (there are two outputs available from FSUIPC).

jensvanhoof Posted September 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Perfect! That's it. I never noticed the 2nd output. Effectively, the GSA is selected there. Thanks! Appreciate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
