Hello,
I am starting to build mine first camper. And want to use a Raspberry with the raspberry display and running the Venus OS.
Have enabled the ADC (MCP3208) and this is showing on the screen..
But is shows tree tanks and I am going to use only two tanks in mine camper..
Can I disable or remove one from the screen?? And if so... How??
BEst regards,
Jody
Hi @Jody_Burow,
you may want to look into Settings and I/O, Analog Inputs and then try to disable the inputs you don't want to see.
In de settings I/O Analog inputs there is nothing listed...
In the digital inputs I can select Inputs.
But in the analog part there is nothing... but on the "main"-screen are the analog inputs visible..
Must I do a step extra to let them show up there???
Best ragrds,
Jody
Well, not an extra step but it seems you have the mechanics 'wired' correctly just not told the software yet. When you do you can indeed switch off/on ports via the gui. From experience it will be next to impossible though to troubleshoot what went wrong without going through all your setup steps in great detail.
In fact, it may well be easier to start from scratch again, sorry.
One thing to check/confirm: Do you have the dbus-adc.conf file in /etc/venus?
Does it look like this (below)? Just double-check there is a line-feed character at the end of the file.
device iio:device0
vref 1.8
scale 4095
tank 4
tank 6
tank 2
temp 5
temp 3
And be sure the permissions are set to 755. Reboot to apply the changes.
(Both these caught me out initially).
Cheers
Phil
Yes I did.... but stil no analog inputs..
Have installed the Image from Jeroen and now everything is there!!!!
