Hi all Happy new year! I thought from memory someone had printed up a case for the PIR on a 3D printer. Finally have myself a 3d printer and want to tidy up my setup and can't find anything through thread search. Anyone point me in the right direction?

I bought this kit https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0744CV3Y5/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 to connect to my alamode board then used cat 5 cable to mini 3 pin xlr plug and sockets to connect to my flow meters. I have seen others use a mini board in between also, which is useful to power multiple...

If you are in the US Daitron sell the swissflow for $58 each. I am in Canada and ordered off them but got stung at the border with duties and a surcharge from the courier to collect them.

Great thanks. I have been using a micro sd to sd adaptor in my macbook's sd slot, I will go buy a usb one and do this. Cheers!

Thought it was timely to provide an update. Finally managed to get back to this and try again. After all else failed I unplugged the PIR and plugged in another (my order included 3 of them) and everything worked perfectly. I guess these things are mass produced and this one was causing...

Have you added the following? sudo nano /home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart add line sudo python pir_run.py Ctrl O, enter ctrl x and then sudo reboot and try again

Exactly, I know not exactly related to the forum but thought you guys might have some ideas.

Sorry I wasn’t more clear. My problem is the screensaver won’t turn on after a period of time. If I open the screensaver and select preview it goes on and motion in front of the PIR turns it off. The test script also works when run.

Ok I thought I was done but alas having issues getting the screensaver to activate. The script and PIR work and if I manually preview the screensaver they will deactivate it but it wont activate when left idle. Any ideas?

No issues as such but I am about to start a motion sensor installation. Is there a variation I should have to start the pir_run.py rather than through autostart? I assume so right?

Yup :D cheers!

This is awesome, damn I was closer than I realized as I copied flowmon from /var/www/html/python folder earlier but saw no change so undid it so didn’t include in my earlier post. I didn’t think to open the file and check paths, working finally, thanks everyone for your help! Now need to add my...

I am so close with my jessie installation but not quite there. I fixed my serial port greyed out issue using the following enable_uart=1 $ sudo systemctl stop [email protected] $ sudo systemctl disable [email protected] $ sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt delete...

Yes a typo sorry, and yes to using the jessie-setup after running the dos2unix on it.

Ok tried all these and no luck. In the flow_monitor.py file I also changed 'var/www/includes/pours.php' to include html in the path. I had this fully working and recording pours using wheezy but cannot get it to work on jessie with identical hardware and sketch already on alamode board. If I...
