Re: installing Update via USB

Hi user123, there is no straight forward way to install an update with an usb drive. As our systems are based on RaspiOS/Debian it should be possible to create an usb driver with a package repo to update the device. This is not straight forward and we have no documentation on the process. If you lik...

Re: C++

PiControl doesn't use C++ and we don't provide a C++ library. PiCOntrol provides a device file: /dev/piControl To work with piControl you need to open the device file and interact with the process image. We have an example program to show how this is done: https://github.com/RevolutionPi/revpi-pites...

Re: does RevPi Connect S support Using RS485 as a Serial Console?

Hi Peter, it should be possible to use the RS485 as console. But be aware, that the RS485 on the Connect(+/S) is connected via USB. This has some impact on some minor use-cases. So you only get output from the console after the USB subsystem is initialized. This is later in the kernel startup. But a...

Re: Location of Connect 4 "Watchdog Jumper"?

The RevPi Connect 4 has no watchdog jumper anymore. The watchdog jumper was needed on older Connect models.

Best regards,

Re: RevPi connect 4 CPU Usage

Hi underhood, if you don't use any extension modules (DIO, AIO, ...) and you don't use any revpi specific tooling (revpimodio2, Node-RED-RevPi-Nodes, ...) you can disable the piControl kernel module: In /etc/modules should be an entry for piControl. You can remove or comment this entry out. But this...

Re: No communication between Connect+ and DIO Module after distribution upgrade to bullseye

A different idea, we released the 6.1 kernel for RevPi a short while ago. We needed to change how the communication between RevPi and IO modules is implemented. We didn't get any bug reports about it, but you might test the 5.10 kernel. sudo apt install raspberrypi-kernel=1:9.20230926+1-5.10.152-1+r...

Re: No communication between Connect+ and DIO Module after distribution upgrade to bullseye

Hi, this looks pretty strange. Could you temporarily flash an up to date image? create an image from your device flash a current image test if this also happens with this image reflash your old image This way we could check if this might be an H/W issue (unlikely, but possible) or if this is a bug i...

Re: C++

We provide GNU C++ 10.2 compiler with our Bullseye release. So you can use any language feature which g++ 10.2 supports.
