I am clear on that concept. What I am wondering about is if the NEMA 0183 depth output for the forward looking sonar contains enough information for MacENC to be able to support a window with a view that is similar to their display?
My guess is that a brief communication, developer to developer, would answer that question.
If their output stream is a simple single point of depth, well, that is aleady supported.
If their output stream has all the depth information seen on their display, well then please add my hope wish to you own wish list.
Since their display supports a second display as a hardware connection, perhaps there is an alternative way to generate a window in MacENC that steps around the complexity of decoding and displaying their NEMA 0183 data stream.
