Hello, I have tried to setup weewx on a raspberry Pi2 B+ which supports per-port USB power on/off to reset the port of a locked Fine Offset, but it didn't work as expected. From the logs I could see that the port was actually being controlled but after puting the power back on it wouldn't initialize properly. So the station would still not send data, in fact it didn't "beep" as it does when you power it on. It did seem to work maybe once or twice but it was not consistent. I think the option to reboot the Pi completely is better.
