Hi Timo,
I'm trying to send with a Due over N2k bus Apparent wind Angle and speed infos by using PGN130306.
void SendN2kWindSpeed(){ tN2kMsg N2kMsg; SetN2kWindSpeed(N2kMsg,1,mwsDampedms,mwaDamped,N2kWind_Apparent); NMEA2000.SendMsg(N2kMsg); }
mwaDamped is a double type result of atan2 and its value range is from -3.14 to +3.14 ( as described, in radians) depending on the sensor position.
On Garmin GNX120 i recognize that the angle have some problem around 0 and 180, and on NMEAReader i found that WindDirection has value between 0 and 180 (0-3.14) if positive and from 195 to 375 (3.40-6.55) for negative ones. This looks very strange.
0------->15--------------->180->-180--------->0 deg Sensor/Ardu Plotter
0,1,2--->14->0,1,2------->180-->195---------->0 NMEAreader
0,1,2--->14->0,1,2------->180-->-165---------->0 GNX120
I've tried to modify the Wind_reference but nothing happens, i've tried also to make a relation of 3.14 and 3.275 and scale the mwa with the right ratio, but doesn't work.
Does anyone found this kind of problem, or similar?
