Indigo Domotics

I need the config (screen shot) & RPIconfig(*) file

Also did you push “all files” to the rpi?

The ssd has an older version of the software. The plugin will
Push the latest to the rpi.

/Library/Application Support/Perceptive Automation/Indigo 7.2/Preferences/Plugins/com.karlwachs.piBeacon/interfaceFiles/parameters.x ( x= # of your RPI)

those files contain passwords!!

If you mean "send ALL files and reboot" I clicked that and closed the window but nothing happened.

Here is a sanitized version of the ind.pref file:

I'll send the screen shot in a little while.

Here's the screen shot....

you need to fill out : userid for indigo web server and indigo password (in config)

Although it is not used when you use direct socket comm, but it still checks if the
"passwordOfServer": “xxxx”,
"userIdOfServer": "",
are set.
in config: set comm to indigo web, fill out userid and passwd, and set back to socket comm.

then push all to your rpi.

then
ssh pi@ip
cd pibeacon
ps -ef | grep .py
sudo python master.py
.... wait 1 min
ps -ef | grep .py

and post result.

Karl

It was filled in. I just blanked it out when I sent the file to the forum so that info wasn't public.

Ok.
Did you blank/ xxx the passed etc in the rpi config file
It looks as if the rpi did not get the new files


Could you do the other commands mrntiined ?

I just blanked it out in photoshop from the screen shot of the plugin config and in the copy of the file. Not in the original. I agree the pi didn't get the files. When I clicked push all files and reboot, nothing happened.

I will try the commands. I assume I do that from the terminal on the server, not the pi.

ssh pi@ip# of pi
Enter password of pi


You can do that from any box you have. As long as you get to the rpi.


but if the files do not get to the rpi the problem is before that..

the userid password and IP of the RPI are correct in initial setup of RPI? and it is switch ON?

Oh, yes. The pi is running just fine by itself, and I can see it on my network with the correct IP.. I actually reserved that address for it so it won't change.

I will run those commands shortly.

Thanks for your help.

(BTW, I assume it makes no difference that the pi boots into the graphical interface.)

"(BTW, I assume it makes no difference that the pi boots into the graphical interface.)" ??: In principle not, only question of resources.

but if the RPI does not get the files, checking the RPI does not help a lot...

this is going on tooo long (lots of ping/pong) , can we do an online session w teamviewer.. that should clarify it pretty quickly

Karl

Here's what the command returned:

Then I reloaded the plugin, and voila:

Nice to hear.

For any iRed2 users out there.... An update was posted April 3, 2019. I downloaded it and all works great under Mac OS Mojave.

I'm well down the track towards setting up a rpi as an IR transmitter (to control a projector in this case) using lirc and mqtt But hadn't delved past the somewhat misleading name of this plugin sufficiently to realise it is really a generic indigo-rpi interface[?]...so curious if i actually should have been heading down this track.

I've hit a minor snag with lirc, to quote:

In 2019 lirc_rpi, the Linux kernel module provided with Raspbian before, was replaced with gpio-ir and gpio-ir-tx.

Whilst its still possible to install lirc manually, it will no longer work out of the box and there's a need to install various patches before recompiling (a process i've found not to work successfully-so far....hence double checking other options! So far as i can establish thus far, manually installed lirc might work for sending codes from the standard libraries without patching, but certainly won't work for learning codes (for which ir-keytable is the default environment rather than lirc .)

so...about to start on a clean OS to learn my codes through ir-keytable before the lirc install obliterates it..but ...before i start experimenting with the plugin and associated RPI firmware, I thought i would sanity check any thoughts on the current lirc situation....should it still work?
