If you can see the plugin version on the list, then compare to the pypilot version installed you can query by running:
pypilot_client -s localhost ap.version
From OpenCPN > setup > Plugins : pypilot 0.22.5.0
Attached screenshot from pypilot _client -s localhost ap.version

You have pypilot 0.16 installed. It's really unfortunate I had to change the data format from 0.2x onward but there are numerous benefits. So your pypilot plugin for opencpn is too new. So either downgrade it, or better to upgrade pypilot to latest git version it worked perfect sailing from new bern back today.

So if running the pypilot app on OP2, upgrading from git on my Rpi4 will bring it up to .2x and it will be able to communicate with the managed pypilot_plugin? Meaning that TinyPilot is just a wrapper (persay) for pypilot?
RE: New setup - seandepagnier - 2020-10-26
tinypilot is an operating system. So it is an alternative to openplotter and targeted for pi zero. It's very stable but does not support opencpn. pypilot can run on either.
I need to investigate the pypilot app in OP2 now that the new pypilot code is basically ready for use.
RE: New setup - SaltyPaws - 2020-10-27
I'm confused. Openplotter > Settings shows pypilot as 2.1.1-beta. So I'm guessing that is not the road to upgrade from 0.16 - - > 0.2
Looking at https://github.com/pypilot/pypilot, are those the steps I need to upgrade, or for just initial install? Sudo apt update & sudo apt upgrade, I gather, doesn't perform the needed upgrade?
OK, I found https://pypilot.org/wiki/doku.php?id=upgrading_from_git
