CAN Template to send GPS data from SDL to M1 GP packages

Hi! Looking for template(s) to send GPS Longitude and Latitude from old model SDL to M1 GP packages.

Seems that those .cc7-templates already posted in this forum do not send lat/long info at all. Here's couple .asc-files of what C185 and SDL are sending, and SDL is sending full zeroes to address 0x0680. Some data looks to be ok but mostly not.

Thanks!!

I have done a bit of testing on this and can replicate your results. Unfortunately the SDL is now a number of generations old and the software is no longer under development.

Thank You for checking this out.

Q: is it a matter of SDL software development or altering one .cc7-template? Tried to look how the template looks like with text editor but nothing I could make sense. :o

Unfortunately it is at a firmware level (I had a bit of a play around with the templates myself), the code that transmits the CAN messages is only expecting to see 16bit numbers where as the GPS Lat/Long are 32bit and it is causing an error that stops the transmission of those channels.

Ok. I guess this customer now has urge to update to something with colours and more screen estate.

Thanks!!

CDL3 works great with the M1 and looks just like your SDL.
