Kplex Configuration

[Eric D]

hello all 

I need for my own python application to have some PTY port to catch NMEA data.

So I proceed like that on Kplex manual setting : 

   ###end of OpenPlotter GUI settings

   ###Manual settings

   [pty]
   name=rend_voiles
   mode=master
   direction=out
   filename=/tmp/virtcom
   baud=4800
   #ofilter=~WIMWV/5:~GPRMC/5:-all
   [pty]
   name=Enr_rend
   mode=master
   direction=out
   filename=/tmp/virtcom1
   baud=4800
   #ofilter=~WIMWV/5:~GPRMC/5:-all

etc.

After I click on restart and Apply Change and Restart again

When I see on /tmp folder : no virtcomx files , and no data in my applications or in Opencpn application

If I click on Diagnostic : I can see the Kplex in data and in the /tmp folder I can see the new virtcomx files.

And all apllications work correctly ...


My question : why it does work just after the Pi initialisation ?

thank you in advance for the answer
