[BUG]: PCA Dimmer #881

Closed sni89 closed 4 months ago

sni89 commented 5 months ago

Hey folks,

After nearly a year of a running system there is an error message popping up since I wanted to replace an old PCA Dimmer for a new one.

The system won’t let me add a PCA Dimmer relay and gives me the following message:

Could not load hardware for relay PCA9685-dimmer dimmer named 'Test123' at address '0,0x40': [Errno 16] Device or resource busy, retrying in 0.5

The PCA is running fine on another system.

Bus 0 does not exists. So change the address to 1,0x40 or even shorter 0x40 should work

theyosh commented 5 months ago

Correct address should be 0x40 or 0x40,1 https://theyosh.github.io/TerrariumPI/hardware/#i2c-bus

Did the address change work? Do you have an update on this?
