Hi all,
This is all rather new to me and I'm wondering if I need to do anything special to stop the following.
Basically, I insert an Actisense NGT1 (N2k to USB) into any port on the PI 4, give it an alias in Serial then add it to signalK. SignalK sees it ok and I can see the data from my N2k AIS system quite happily. However, the minute I add Pypilot into the equation, all data from the NGT stops flowing.
Ive been through all the options I can think of but it seems that when the pypilot service is running, signalK gets no data from the NGT and often reports that it can connect to the USB port because its busy. To me this implies that pypilot is pinching the port before signalk manages to connect to it.
How do I stop this happening? ANyone know?
I should point out I'm not particularly linux wise, so please be gentle.
System is a RPI 4B 8gb
Openplotter 2.81
IMU 9255 connected via Pypilot.
N2K system has Airmar DST800, Garmin AIS 600 and a simrad TP22 tillerpilot, when its all connected. Data all flows nicely in Actisense NMEA reader when NGT1 is plugged into windoze.
Strikes me that I need to stop pypilot connecting to the USB and taking its data from sigk.
