Seriell New GPS Device Alias Problem - Slin_Slin - 2023-05-21

Hi,

i have a Openplotter v3 installed on a Pi 4. When I want to add a new gps device (NL-82002U) Signal K Error: No such file or directory, cannot open /dev/ttyOP_gps. 

   

What could be my fault?
Code:
pi@openplotter:/dev $ openplotter-serial
wrong external apps format: unexpected EOF while parsing (<string>, line 0)

If you type this in a terminal window:

Code:
ls -ahl /dev/ | grep ttyOP

You should see a symbolic link:

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root          7 May 19 19:39 ttyOP_gps -> ttyACM0

If you don't you may want to try creating the link

Code:
sudo ln -s /dev/ttyACM0 /dev/ttyOP_gps


See this similar thread. https://forum.openmarine.net/showthread.php?tid=4640

By the way the Baud rate of 11520 seems high, is that correct?

I didn´t have a symbolic link. But after 

Code:
sudo ln -s /dev/ttyACM0 /dev/ttyOP_gps

it´s working now. Thank you very much @ baltika_no_9   Smile

The GPS Antenna support the Baud rate of 11520, because it´s a new one with GALILEO (Navilock NL-82002U). Should I use a lower Baud rate?

Great news!

If it works at 11520 then I'd leave it.

All the best

I test it again with a new default image. There is the same error again. Is it a bug when you use M.2 SSD Boot?

Background:
Openplotter v3 installed on a Pi 4, Case: Argon ONE M.2 Case, System on the M.2 SSD.

RE: Seriell New GPS Device Alias Problem - baltika_no_9 - 2023-05-31

But does it work if you manually create the symbolic link?

If so it might be worth reporting this as a bug, it seems that OP is not correctly creating the symlink from the serial application. Yours is the second example, the other is linked in post #2 and the problem appears from your experience to be reproduceable.

I can't comment on the M.2 question but it seems unlikely. Does it work OK if you use an SD card?

RE: Seriell New GPS Device Alias Problem - baltika_no_9 - 2023-05-31

I've reproduced the problem like you and raised a thread in the Bug forum.

oh thank you very much.

In the meantime you can get round the issue by selecting Remember Port rather than Remember Device.
