I cannot create the boot/config.txt file. #38

Does the project actually work? I cannot create the boot/config.txt file. Can you help me to create the file? I am using Raspberry 5 with the following operating system, installed with IMAGER Other specific-purpose OS -> Home assistant and home automation -> Home Assistant -> Home Assistant OS 13.2 (RPI 5). Thanks ------- Translated from Spanish to English with Deepl.com----- ¿El proyecto funciona actualmente? Yo no puedo crear el archivo boot/config.txt ¿Puedes ayudarme a crear el archivo?

Gracias

I got it working somewhat early last year. It was a lot of work and there wasn't any help from this page. I had to do a lot of trial and error.

My recommendation is to steer clear of the rpi5 and get a less expensive option like an ESP32 relay board. I just completed my own, I've not had time to clean up the code and create a repo for it yet. But it's in my plans.

I actually forked this repository and updated all of the code with my working code. I included my config.txt file that was working in my rpi4. I am unsure this will work in rpi5, but hopefully for you it will. Let me know if you have any further questions.

De hecho, bifurqué este repositorio y actualicé todo el código con mi código de trabajo. Incluí mi archivo config.txt que estaba funcionando en mi rpi4. No estoy seguro de que esto funcione en rpi5, pero espero que para usted sí. Déjame saber si tienes más preguntas.

Hi cremer42 I am indeed at an impasse with this project, I can't create the /boot/config.txt file. Homeassistant does not recognise the atlas scientific sensors nor the temperature sensors. I thank you for your offer to send me your code, I can test if it works on the rpi 5. Thank you very much Regards

For sure, check my page, I have a forked copy of the raspipool system with my working code, including the config. If you have any questions let me know and I can help you out along the way. Just start new "issues" on my fork.

Its not straight forward but it does work. I've been running for about 2 years now using EZO-pH and EZO-ORP and it seems to be functionality without any real issues. I'm about to try and add in an EZO-FLOW.

I am using a Raspberry Pi 4, a Whitebox T3 and 3 1-Wire temperature probes.

Is there a reason you're concerned on flow and not pressure? I've got pressure on my new setup, I'd rather see the pressure to tell me when I need to backwash my filter. image

The main reason I am interested in Flow is to ensure that the Heater is working at optimum efficiency. The specification for the heater is 125L/min but at the moment I really have no idea what the flow rate is. The filter has a pressure gauge so I can eyeball that every couple of days, therefore It wasn't as high a priority.

Also, my pump is located higher than the pool with a non-return valve but every now and then it doesn't self prime (i think sometimes a bit of debri gets caught in the valve). During week days the pump will turn on at 11am when I am in the office so I wated a way to ensure it was actually pumping.

That makes sense... I guess i never worried about that. My pump sits below my skimmer intake and my pump moves about 200 L/min. (unless my filter is clogged) ie my reason for pressure, I know my average pressure with a clean filter, filter dirty, then i know my flow is going to be reduced. lol
