Openplotter KPlex Issue

[lawrence_craig]

Hey guys,

I have a strange issue happening.

My AIS is plugged by USB into my Pi which I then pull through the data via KPlex into OpenCPN.

Sometimes, the AIS data disappears from OpenCPN and the simply way to fix it is to open the Openplotter App on the Pi and run Diagnostic.

It then works as expected. The AIS is plugged into a powered USB Hub and the minute I press “diagnostic”, the stream comes to life. I have tried plugging directly into Pi as well.

What could be causing this issue? Any way to resolve?

Thanks
