OpenCPN pypilot plugin disconnected
#11
(2021-06-24, 03:05 AM)seandepagnier Wrote: I believe what you have is the old version of pypilot and the new version of the pypilot opencpn plugin.   This is confusing (even for me) because the openplotter-pypilot plugin version 2.1.1 which is what is installed by openplotter will give you pypilot 0.15.    So you can either update pypilot directly from git, or it would be great if you could try out my improvements to openplotter-pypilot which are currently being evaluated but hopefully this version will be in openplotter soon.

https://github.com/pypilot/openplotter-pypilot

Just use "sudo python3 setup.py install" and then try running openplotter-pypilot and update pypilot.    This gives a bit more control.   If you run into trouble let me know, and if you cannot update pypilot from the gui there just try pulling pypilot directly from git
https://github.com/pypilot/pypilot

again "sudo python3 setup.py install"

This should get everything updated to the new version of pypilot which automatically communicates with signalk (once you grant it read/write permission)

note:  port 20220 is not signalk, it is nmea0183

Running pypilot after install (at least without reboot) gives a none function pypilot (NA values). Pypilot -- autopilot should just be used to check if installation worked (first it didn't after refresh it did but pypilot would not start the program). Reboot will help get pypilot functioning again
