Suggest you connect the pc to the power/data cable (via usb/serial adapter) and try some of the standard connections.

You may not need the plugin.

Thank you for your reply
I have all my instruments connected in a Seatalkng net. The Pc is connected to this network with help of an Actisence unit. It works well
Transferering routes via export from O on the PC to a95 does not work. I think that a route created in O does not have the same format that the Raymarine need. So what I need is a "converter"off line to do that job. I thought that the oBable plugin was the solution but I can't find the plugin or the documentation Did I miss something?

The oBabel plugin documentation is here:

https://opencpn.org/wiki/dokuwiki/do...anslate:obabel

Sorry, the plugin (because it is a beta) is no longer on the plugin 'Downloads' page of the new website. I will compile and make an installer for Windows on GitHub in the next day or two.
