d-bus command problems

Hi,

I'm new on d-bus operation, and I would like to get the configuration file .rvsc from Cerbo GX using ssh in order to automate some functions. I tried the command:

/opt/color-control/mk2vsc -r -s dbus://com.victronenergy.vebus.ttyO1/Interfaces/Mk2/Tunnel

from this document:

https://www.victronenergy.com/live/open_source:ccgx:commandline#changing_settings

but I got the following error message:

-sh: /opt/color-control/mk2vsc/: Is a directory

Could some provide a clue about what is the missing part?

Thanks in advance for your kind support,


César

R u sure you have this interface?

.ttyO1/


Use dbus-spy to find out what the current ve.bus interface is in your system

And what do you want to tunnel where?

I noticed something similar in the docs (now at https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/wiki/commandline---operational#step-1-reading-the-settings )

Docs specific:

/opt/victronenergy/mk2vsc

Whereas the required command on my cerbo gx venus 3.0.0 is:

/opt/victronenergy/mk2vsc/mk2vsc
