update: after playing around with some parameters. It works only if I add the -c
parameter. Is that normal?
florian@odroid:~$ ebusctl read -c vr_71 SensorData1
23.44;-;-;-;58.44;51.00;62.06;54 00
yes, you are correct. you are specifying the SensorData1 reading on the vr_71 circuit. you might want to add the -f option as well. the problem is the 'first steps' wiki is incorrect and misses the -c option, so any noob like me or you diligently following it gets caught for hours in this trap with unhlepful errors trying to figure it out! unfortunately i cannot find the repo for the adapter website to raise a pull request to correct it....
if you'd look at the wiki or the help of the read command, then you'd see that indeed specifying the circuit name requires a "-c" in front
Sorry @john30 that I have bothered you with this stupid issue. May I ask you then to update the first steps section for the ebus adapter V5? There you say that if you do ebusctl list
command and the response is for e.g. hwc Mode = no data stored
you can just do ebusctl read hwc Mode
. So I just followed the first steps and made that mistake. Sorry again.
thanks for spotting that, will correct it in the docs. any many thanks for reading the docs! you seem to be a rare candidate :-)
Hi,
i am using the ebus adapter V5 via wifi. Ebusd is installed on an ubuntu 20.04.6 Ebusd has a working connection and I get a list of all devices with command
ebusctl find
:e.g.:
now I try to do
ebusctl read vr_71 SensorData1
and it returns
ERR: element not found
what am I doing wrong here?
