Or just upgrade to a Pi4. I have had USB issues for years with older Pis, to the point where I have a hub on one of them just to drive a z-wave stick. However, I haven’t had any issues at all with the Pi4, I’m assuming because of the USB hardware redesign on that box. Admittedly, I haven’t had

A NUC is also an order of magnitude more expensive! Andrew's suggestion of an externally powered USB hub is a good one. A good power supply for the RPi is also essential. On Tue, Apr 28, 2020 at 7:12 AM 'Rich Altmaier' via weewx-user < weewx-user@googlegroups.com> wrote: > Praveen, as I have adv

Praveen, as I have advised before, consider upgrading to the Intel NUC. All USB electrical problems gone! Yes it costs more. Yes it is 10-20x faster. Yes it is trouble free! Good luck. Rich -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group. To unsu

Things to try: 1. Ferrite coils might help, although you are getting a lot more errors than what is normally associated with EMI. 2, Another possibility is that something else is trying to claim /dev/ttyUSB0. For example, modemmanager has been known to do this. To see a list of processes using /

Don't know what you mean by "Mine is a serial port on Vue side." "usb issue must be on pi side." Not sure what you're asking here but, yes, the USB plugs into the pi, and that's where the assignment to /dev occurs. The very short screenshot you included doesn't offer many clues as to the cause.

Thanks. I already hav the udev which is why it auto recovers. Mine is a serial port on Vue side. So the usb issue must be on pi side I assume? Ferrite coil should solve the problem? On Mon, 27 Apr 2020, 21:26 Tom Keffer, wrote: > See the section *Davis cp2101 converter problems >
