That’s kind of just a limitation of the software and small screen.

You can change the font size of the text within the de, but the graphics not so much unless you actually go in and change it in the program and recompile.

I’m having the same problem. Every time I try to run I get the error message that it’s not installed, and when I try to install it I get the message that it’s already installed. I’m kind of stumped.

Think there’s a library missing or it needs installing by a different method. When I get round to trying again I’ll manually enter lat/long min and max without messing up the scaling of a cropped map 🙄. First attempt put me a mile or so away from reality, so almost got it right. Once you have a working map I ‘think’ you have to save preferences or it’s lost on next boot…

are you using the AIOv2? if so the modules are turned off by default. go here to use the script

That was it. I could have swore that I read if you install Rex aio package, that it will enable everything by default. Guess that wasn’t the case. Thanks for the info.

It is not safe to have turn on all. As I said before somewhere. If you have Lora enabled and no antenna attached- you can burn 🔥 it. So I think for security reason all of disable by default

The aio package was made for the V1, where everything is on all the time

Hi all, i just got the AIO board a week ago and have questions about GPS module i cannot figure out after researching online. The first one is even I turn off GPS via GPIO pin 27 the gps positioning is keep working and sending NMEA strings to ttyAMA0, does this abnormal or i was using a wrong control pin?

The second issue is from GPS module I keep receiving this NMEA string:  
$GPTXT,01,01,01,ANTENNA OPEN\*25  
It seems the antenna is not powered or not connected, but i am using the stock antenna came with the AIO kit and it seems an active antenna … also the GPS positioning works correctly with this message so I do not know this is error message or just normal

atlas  
dark-matter-brown  
openstreet-map  
positron

Any help is greatly appreciated. I am horribly new to all things Pi and Linux/Ubuntu.

Thank you!

Hey! I’ve missed that conversation, but I have solution for you. I faced same issue, you must desolder one thing from board to get it working

There’s diode I think that it’s back feeding power to it and overloading GPS (it got 4.7V!)

Remove this, it’s a leftover from tests by HG team. You’ll get antenna ok and will be able to disable gps.

You can see the names of the maps in the list? Try zooming out. i looked for an openstreetmap bundle that is zoomed farther in and found one.Can’t remember where off the top of my head and i’m on my uConsole rather than my MacBook, so I can’t look for it. the one I found still doesnt have maps close enough, but theyre better what you listed

Hi all, sorry if this question has been asked before, but I couldn’t find any topic on it. I’m running Trixie with the AIO V2 software package and running into an issue with tar1090 and SDR++ Brown. Once tar1090 has been started, it prevents SDR++ from receiving any data, even when the browser page for tar1090 has been closed. I’ve been looking into it and it seems that the ADS-B decoder ‘readsb’ is using the USB and stopping data to SDR++. I googled a workaround by manually stopping/starting readsb with “sudo systemctl stop readsb”. When readsb is stopped SDR++ gets data again. Is there a way to fix/automate this, or am I doing something wrong?

you need to close the full browser for the readadsb service to shut down again I think

</div>

That’s what I thought but that doesn’t work. The only way I have managed to swap between tar1090 and SDR++ is by manually turning readsd on and off. On my previous installation of bookworm 12 I didn’t have the problem, only since the new install of Trixie.

the tar1090 shortcut launches a script, if you run that script in a terminal you’ll likely get more output to figure out what’s going on
