Raspberry pi 4b #1

Hello, this looks interesting and nice work😀 I want to get this up and running on a rpi 4b using Energus uart to usb adapter . Should it work to just copy and paste the code? I tried and at first I had trouble finding dev but realised that it had a different name than mentioned in the code. Changed the code and it seemed ok. When starting script I get multiple errors saying Data Not Being Stored in Receive Data Register... I assume I have some issues with the uart communication..? (As you understand I have no knowledge about programming, yust google and try get it to work). Any idea what I need to get this running on my rpi?

Can you paste a copy of the error messages?

Thanks for your reply :) I have the BMS unit installed in a remote solar installation. I will paste a copy next time I'm there. Until then I will try to get a better understanding of your nice work with this repo👍

If you are new to serial data, confirm that the recieve and transmit are correctly connected so that the transmission from one device is connected to the recieve of the other device.

Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the help. I did some more research today when visitting the installation. Found that I had to change name for usb- port again ( in the app code). That was the solution and made the communication between rpi4 and Tinybms work 👍 Bokeh server looks nice🙂 Thanks for your nice work👍awesome!

That is great news, I'm glad it is working for you.

Let me know if you have any suggestions for updating the readme...
