will do, i will update all my findings here hopefully others can learn from it.

thanks for the leads, looking forward to do this over the weekend.

hi all,
i was just holding the unipi in my hand and it got me thinking… is it even possible to have it connect and run from an arduino ?

any thoughts on this please ?

Thanks

IT WORKED!!

thank you so, Tomas, you have no idea how happy i am.!
i will disappear for few days (to forget how annoying i am) and come back with more questions if thats ok.

thanks again!

ok,
the bad news: i was editing the wrong file the.

the good news there is progress, i edited /etc/evok.conf and then i ran:

sudo python /opt/evok/evok.py
```and i got this:

i went online: 192.168.1.3:88 and only relay 1 was showing

Hi Tomas,

just to be clear there are 2 Evok.conf
1- /etc/evok.conf
2- evok's main installation directory: /home/evok/etc/evok.conf

when you say 'The thing is that you are not editing the same file as evok is reading (/etc/evok.conf) ' you mean the first path right ?
thanks.

@tomas_hora:3c7karnk:

Any other change in the config file (eg removing relay 8 on unipi or changing the number of relay eg from 8 to 9 works)?

it tired it did not work, any idea why this is happening ?
to be honest i am starting to give up.

thanks Tomas.

hi, i have reinstalled everything fresh, and this is the new config file, i have also added the 'Print address' and i run 'sudo python /opt/evok/evok.py' amd this is the config and the results:

hi,
sorry i just came back from a trip, i made a new RJ45 cable and still no luck.
i have also changed the unipi board (i have 2) but still the same, i cannot see the 1W-8R
any suggestions ?
