  Open Sea Maps and MacENC ???
Posted by: cyberhusky - January 26, 2012 16:41 - Forum: MacENC & GPSNavX - Replies (1)

Hello

back again after a long absence (living in a new place ;-)

Like the Open Street Maps project there's the Open Sea Maps project.

More infos here
http://openseamap.org/index.php?id=openseamap&L=1

Now my question: will MacENC or GPSNavX support these free maritime charts?

Regards,

Manou

  DY iNavConnect support?
Posted by: Copprhead - January 26, 2012 12:45 - Forum: iNavX - Replies (1)

DigitalYacht announced WiFi device - iNavConnect. Its name seems to suggest it's the perfect connection device for use with iNavX.
But from what I've understood so far it only serves to exchange waypoint and route information between Raymarine non-wifi plotters and Navionics mobile apps. (And as a WiFi router.)

Can the developers comment on what we can expect from this box in combination with iNavX?

  Can't set anchor alarm ?
Posted by: Sven_G - January 23, 2012 18:43 - Forum: MacENC & GPSNavX - No Replies

Probably a newbie issue.

I have a GPSlim 236 hooked up and showing our position but when I go to try to set the anchor alarm nothing in the "Anchor Drag Distance" dialog can't be updated.

Any initial hint of what I might be missing ?

Thanks,



-Sven

  Free sailing stories 1/20-1/22
Posted by: Talespinner - January 20, 2012 13:24 - Forum: General - Replies (1)

Hi guys,

I write nautical fiction and the Kindle store is giving away my little collection of four short stories that is called SEA BITCH: Four Tales of Nautical Noir throughout this weekend. If you have the Kindle app on an iPhone, iPad or Mac (you guys wouldn't have Android, would you?) you can read the book. The collection ends with a 50-page bonus preview of my new novel CIRCLE OF BONES, a sailing thriller that takes place down in the Caribbean.

The book was written on a Mac and my character has a Mac - does that make it all more on topic?

Here's a link to SEA BITCH. http://www.tinyurl.com/seabitch

Fair winds!

  Importing or syncing waypoints in GPSNavX and iNavX
Posted by: wwaite - January 17, 2012 19:11 - Forum: iNavX - Replies (1)

Is it possible to import my waypoints from GPSNavX to iNavX on my iPhone 4? I'm a long time user of GPSNavX and would love it if I could import the data from my laptop to my iPhone. Please tell me there is a way....

  AIS RX: em-trak R100 with MacOS
Posted by: jimh - January 16, 2012 22:39 - Forum: Hardware - Replies (1)

I have been using the recently introduced em-trak R100 AIS receiver with my MacOS 10.6.8 MacBook Pro laptop. The em-trak drivers work fine. I have also been able to use the em-trak R100 receiver with PolarView NS.

I give a lot more details and provide many illustrations in an article available at:

http://continuouswave.com/whaler/referen...otter.html

So far I find the em-trak R100 is very compatible with the MacOS 10.6.8.

The em-trak R100 AIS receiver can be operated by the power supplied in its USB connection. It only draws 90-milliamperes or about 0.45-Watts.
