No Pypilot data into Signalk Server after OS Backup swap

Parameters in pypilot.conf will override zeroconf. The zeroconf process still runs but you would have to erase the signalk lines in pypilot.conf and restart to get zeroconf to re-scan. I started doing this second modification and I got out of my depth with race conditions so I will leave it to someone smarter (like Claude :-)
Thanks for the attempt. 

I will try it, however now it's successfully providing data to the main Sk server. However, I don't know how, as there was a point that it wasn't, even when I put venus os Raspi down for several days. 

So desperate, I activated again the Imu attached to my Mac Arthur hat, which before, when TinyPilot was providing data , was disabled. 

After some days, working on another thing, I noticed that I had messages in Sk server log saying something like  "there was a new device offering heading, roll, etc" (don't remember the exact words), a message shown in a neverending cascade. That was the TinyPilot back to scene. 

So I disabled again the MacArthur Imu and, voila!  I got the data flow as before the problem was. But there is no trace in Sk server of anything. 

I just got an active deltas Ws connection with my Sk server username which don't know where did it come from. I don't even know what data is generating. Mistery! 

One day TinyPilot stopped providing its data again, but maybe due to the fact that these days I'm developing a Sk Plugin and I am restarting Sk server maybe 20 times a day. Now it's OK again. 

In the meantime of this story, I also updated twice Sk installer and sk server to the latest version. 

If I have the same problem again, I'll try your solution, but for the moment, I won't touch it again. 

Thanks a lot for your efforts.
