Server Hardware for openplotter?

[glowntiger]

Hi Max,
at the moment I have less time to design the Seatalk1 board… First I finished the MCS board, then add digital I/O boards… and then the Seatalk 1... ;-)

If you don´t can wait until Sailoog add the MCS-APP (and I think that's the way it is ;-) ) you can add the MCS manualy….
The best is, you do not take your active SDcard… Make an img or take a new, fresh version. (So if anything goes wrong you can take your old configuration)

Then:
clone the repo:

Code:

git clone https://github.com/Thomas-GeDaD/openplotter-MCS

go to the Folder:

Code:

cd openplotter-MCS

Install:

Code:

sudo python3 setup.py install

then start the postinstall:

PHP Code:

MCSPostInstall 


restart your Pi!!!

Then you must start the 1-wire server manualy (This do normal the openplotter-settings) At the moment you must do that after every restart of the Pi

Code:

echo 'ds2482 0x18' | sudo tee /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-1/new_device

after this you should start the MCS-APP

Code:

openplotter-MCS

The App is not handled via openplotter-settings at this time!! only for testing.

If you are ready, you can deinstall via:

Code:

MCSPreUninstall

 and delete the MCS folder via:

Code:

sudo rm -r openplotter-MCS
