Losing GPS signal on OpenCPN
#1
Hi
I have Openplotter running on Pi3- Ihave a GPS puck plugged in- and I can get a signal from the puck to the OpenCPN. But, if I leave it running overnight- it drops the connection to the puck and I cannot get it to reconnect. Last time, I had to reinstall the software all over again. When i use the Serial utility of the Openplotter software, I get a green connection and when i use the connection utility on OpenCPN, I the drop down presents the USB port, and the name of the puck. Am I doing something wrong? I am using a Beitan GPS receiver puck. It has the u-blox GNSS receiver  inside...do I need to get a different puck?

Thanks

Ben
