NMEA GPS-Data not displayed on Cerbo

We use Cerbo on 2 ships where NMEA position data is circulating in the N2K network exactly as required in manual of Cerbo. On one ship GPS data is generated by Veratron Go GPS antenna, on other ship it is generated by Raymarine Axiom 9+.

Nonetheless GPS data on both ships is not read and/or displayed on the Cerbo via VRM neither static nor dynamic (GPS over time via widget).

Local Victron support had no idea what the problem is / could not solve the issue.

Anyone with similar experience can help?

Hi, the relevant documentation is here:

Chapter 2.7

Usually, what is happening is that the GPS is not sending its data on the N2K format in the way we expect it.

Do you have actisense or some other tooling that allows you to make some screenshots of all details there mentioned in the manual, such as the NMEA2000 device class?
