In order to get the surface smooth and waterproof, the case was painted. Threaded inserts made of brass were provided in the housing for the circuit boards and the housing cover. The back consists of a coated aluminum plate and contains the necessary connectors to the outside world. Operation is via a waterproof membrane keyboard, which consists of a 0.2mm thick plastic film with a keyboard board underneath. Alternatively, the plotter can also be operated with a Bluetooth or IR remote control.<\/p>\n<h2>software<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-824 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_2.jpg 650w, https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_2-229x300.jpg 229w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fig. Above AVnav, below OpenCPN<\/p>\n<p>The operating system image Raspberry Pi OS Buster with Toutchpad extensions is located in a 32GB SD card on the base board. Christian created two image versions. Once for AVnav and once for OpenCPN as navigation software. The software versions differ in terms of usability and support the special features of the navigation software. While AVnav is fully browser-based on touch operation, OpenCPN, on the other hand, is a desktop application that is operated with a mouse and keyboard. So that OpenCPN can be operated without a mouse and keyboard, a wide range of adapted remote controls with a mouse emulation was built. In addition, the most important key functions of OpenCPN such as zooming and various views have been assigned to keys. Raspberry Pi OS Buster has received some software extensions for this purpose.<\/p>\n<h2>Further information<\/h2>\n<p>In 2020 Christian launched a small series for the plotter as a kit and sold it to interested sailors. The project is currently not being pursued any further because the production of the parts for the plotter has proven to be too time-consuming and costly. In addition, hardly anyone interested was able to implement the project themselves and was dependent on Christian&#039;s preliminary work. At the end of 2021 Christian made a new attempt to develop cheaper and easier to build plotters. He was able to take into account the many experiences of this project. The discontinuation of the Raspberri Pi Compute Module CM3 shortly after the completion of the board set was particularly painful. That would have made it necessary to develop a completely new base board. It also turned out that the concept of the HDMI video controller with source switch for use as a plotter was oversized and the functionality could not be used properly. Overall, the use of the CM3 module required a complex and expensive base board to provide the missing functionality. In comparison, a standard Raspberry Pi would have had many things on board that could have been used. His <a href=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/en\/7-plotter-raspi-4b\/\">new concept for a 7 \u2033 plotter<\/a> This time it is based on a standard Raspberry Pi with a few additional components and a standard housing that can be obtained commercially. This significantly reduces the effort and even less experienced makers can implement the project themselves.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.segeln-forum.de\/thread\/73813-10-plotter-im-eigenbau\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.segeln-forum.de\/thread\/73813-10-plotter-im-eigenbau\/<\/a>\u00a0(german)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/forum.openmarine.net\/showthread.php?tid=1547\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/forum.openmarine.net\/showthread.php?tid=1547<\/a>\u00a0(english)<\/p>\n<h2>pictures<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/plotter_parts3.jpg\">\u00a0<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/plotter_parts4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-854 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/plotter_parts4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"914\" height=\"724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/plotter_parts4.jpg 914w, https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/plotter_parts4-300x238.jpg 300w, https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/plotter_parts4-768x608.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 914px) 100vw, 914px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fig. Component set<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_back.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-827 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_back-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"952\" height=\"635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_back-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_back-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_back-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_back.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 952px) 100vw, 952px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fig.Plexiglas rear side (trade fair version)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-825 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"688\" height=\"893\" srcset=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000.jpg 688w, https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000-231x300.jpg 231w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 688px) 100vw, 688px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fig.AVnav and OpenCPN<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_remote.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-826 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_remote.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"148\" height=\"632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_remote.jpg 148w, https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/plotter1000_remote-70x300.jpg 70w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 148px) 100vw, 148px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fig. Above remote control for AVnav, below for OpenCPN<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First, a few important tips that you should definitely observe.
