what means "GPS is still working in opencpn but signalk says it is busy"?
if the GPS is not working in signal k, opencpn will not get data unless you have set a serial input in opencpn. Opencpn must have only a network connection to TCP localhost 10110
In signalk the gps status was "error device or resource busy" but opencpn had gps. Attached is the opencpn connections I have set up, just tcp 10110. But I restarted it and the gps stopped working again. No errors in signalk but there is no position information signalk. I tried to see what was using the gps and I got what is in the second picture, looks like node was using it. I then killed node and then rechecked and pypilot was using the gps. Then signalk said error device or resource busy and opencpn still did not have gps. So then I killed pypilot and nothing was using the gps for a second and then pypilot started to use it again. I also attached what signalk is saying.
I also set a delay of 15s in the settings window per your suggestion
I Uninstaller pypilot and restarted signalk. The gps is used by all the node processes again so im assuming that must be signalk. There are no errors but position is null. Cgps -s also has no data.
I completely removed the gps from the serial window, restarted, and cgps -s had output again. I readded it to the serial and made the connection to signalk. It started working again, who knows for how long though
Apparently not very long because it stopped working again. Everything is removed from the serial window but cgps -s has no data and i cannot get it to work at all now. Maybe I need a new gps or something because I am extremely confused.
