Sequent 16 relay card #54

Open brydenver2 opened 7 months ago

brydenver2 commented 7 months ago

Hello @rstrouse, I have been working on the Sequent 16 Relay Hat in the I2cRelay.ts but using the 8 relay as a template I can’t seem to get the address’s correct. Excuse me as I am a newbie at GitHub, how can I submit the code for you to take a look? Do I just create a branch?

Clone the repository, then make your local changes, then make a pull request. Sorry, I missed your issue.

Hey guys, just seeing if this board has been added yet? I can't seem to get it to work with any of the settings available under multi-relay board but not sure if I'm doing something wrong. I can activate it from the command line with the Sequent utility. This is the board - https://sequentmicrosystems.com/products/sixteen-relays-8-layer-stackable-hat-for-raspberry-pi

This hasn't been added yet.

The only problem with that board is that it only has NO contacts. You cannot power a valve.

I too would be interested in this 16 relay board being implemented. I have quite a few on/off devices I may end up controlling from this box (several but not all via 3 HP relays). I’ll likely be buying a second relay card, and getting 16 NO relays vs 8 more NO/NC seems a bit more future proof of a purchase. I can’t see needing more than 8 NO/NC relays.

I considered purchasing the 16 relay board and contributing the code to add it, but my experience is mostly in python. I did some C/C++/Java way back when, but no nodejs to date. Perhaps it’s time to learn!

How intensive is adding a new board? I’ll try to poke around the code to get an idea as well.
