USB serial connection to CBus RS232 PCI feature request

[DarylMc]

Hello Greig @greiginsydney I've got a raspberry pi setup using a FTDI USB adapter from the raspberry pi to the Clipsal 5500PC RS232 PCI.

The setup instructions have been available for years now but I forgot it was an option. I plan to post some info here for consideration as an option in the installer script.

https://blog.addictedtopi.com/2017/05/21/installing-c-gate-on-a-raspberry-pi/ This is where I have always sourced how to setup CGate on the raspberry pi. Since my CBus networks have an ethernet interface I always skipped the ser2sock service.

This could be put in the install script as an option before CGate installation. I can't see a problem to install by default and leave the ser2sock service disabled for CNI users.

git clone https://github.com/nutechsoftware/ser2sock.git sudo mv ser2sock /usr/local/bin cd /usr/local/bin/ser2sock chown -R pi:pi . mv config.h.in config.h cc -o ser2sock ser2sock.c sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/ser2sock.service
