AIS/GPS signal disappeared

[adrianostlund]

Hi friendly people!
I have a RPI with openCPN and an AIS (Em-trak B100) connected to the RPI with USB. Everything has worked just fine until a few days ago. I could both see AIS targets and have a correct GPS-position. Now neither works. I have tried to remove the connection and install it again. When I run the nmea debug I see no messages. Any suggestions on what I could try? Below is how it looks under "Connections".

Many thanks!
Adrian

After the 100th time of reinstalling it, I also shut of the AIS for a longer period, and now it all works!

Adrian thanks for posting back the solution.

The Emtrak can get power from its 12v source and the USB port. To get a real reset you need to kill power from both sources.
