1 year ago RpiGpioSetup has no operating parts. It simply sets things up when running the setup script then backs out of the way.
Check /sys... for your relays and see if you can open and close the relays by writing 1 or 0 to that file. If not there may be something wrong with the hat.

1 year ago Thank you for the direction. I was successful of switching the all 3 relays on the hat with writing 1 in the files

I still dont see relays in the UI. What should I check next?

1 year ago Do you have the relays in the Settings / Relay menu ?
If not, verify /etc/venus/gpio_list is correct. I think you said it was but ....
If so, do the on/off toggles close/open your relays?
Check Settings / Display & language / GuiMods / Show Relay overview is turned on. That will only affect whether you see the Relay Overview page.

1 year ago Sorry I misspoke… you are correct. I wad there multiple times. There was no relay listed as a menu item, but after toggled the relays by writing 1 in the files as you advised the relay menu showed up now! So did show the relay controls in the GUI. Very strange! Previously I restarted the device multiple time and checked. I was always getting grey page for the relays in GUI_mods and the relays was not listed in the settings menu I don't know how to explain that… it works now but i hope it is not going to disappear again. You can close this issue now. Thank you!

I had it setup and working properly then one day after I moved the unit and powered it back up, there and no more relays shown in the GUI. I have waveshare hat with 3 relays and it was working perfectly well. The pins are setup properly in gpio_list and have no conflicts with DI I trued installing and reinstalling RPIGPIOSetup, but still mo relay on the GUI or on the settings how do we get them back?
