Hi,
For combining the data from the various sources and inputting it via a
single port in your computer, you'll need a NMEA multiplexer. Have a look

The multiplexer combines sentences to a single data stream but leaves the
original sentences untouched (unless you want to make changes deliberately,
by loading a script). If your CMAPS ECS supports AIS and the input port can
be configured for 38400 bps reception, it will work.
