NMEA2000 over VRM

Maybe just answered questions?

- Wich product do i need to connect NMEA2000 to Cerbo GX?

- What does the cerbo gx send to VRM, so i can use over the API? (Oil Temperature, GPS, engine speed, fuel use, depth ....)

cerbo gxVRMnmea2000

The only data that you will get from the NMEA2000 network is some tank data and GPS position. The capability is really for sending battery, solar, inverter data onto the NMEA network.

Do you know how we can read more NMEA2000 PGNs on Venus OS?

For example this device:

https://acrossoceansystems.com/wp-content/uploads/Datasheet-AC-Monitor-AOS.pdf

The device outputs all power parameters and can be connected to a generator and possibly displayed on Venus to be monitored.

I don't understand why it does not read more PGNs. how difficult will that be as it is already reading and writing from the NMEA2000 bus?

the PGNs that this device outputs are

PGN 127744 AC Power / Current - Phase A
and
PGN 127747 AC Voltage / Frequency-Phase A

and also this deice can be used for alternator current monitoring:

https://acrossoceansystems.com/wp-content/uploads/Data-Sheet-DC_AC-Current-Sensors-AOS.pdf

this one outputs PGN 127508 for current

These devices also can be connect to the WiFi network and provide data from there.

There must be a way to add more devices to Venus OS
can you please explain?
