One more comment - will you implement the same preference for the MacENC NMEA out feature. It would be of benefits to have preferences:
A. ONLY sent autopilot data generated from a MacENC waypoint on the NMEA out. None of the data received on any input is set out on NMEA out.
B. Only send the processed sentences recieved on the GPS, Instrument, and AIS NMEA (RS232) inputs. (I am using processed to mean sentences which are used by MacENC - those that cause a "green" display)
C. Only consolidate process sentances from selected input streams - e.g. only from the AIS stream - into the NMEA out.
With a multi drop network - Seatalk, NMEA 2000 - one appears needs more filter controls to stop conflicts and confusion in the either the TCP/IP or NMEA out streams.
Thank you
