Question for the group, I've got a working setup using cbpi4, and don't have any issues. From what I gather on the various pieces of documentation, there should be a mobile view for phones/tablets, but when I go to my cbpi instance on my local network on my mobile device, I never see the mobile version. Is there something else I need to do to enable it?

I don't get any sort of mobile view version either. However, while some more work, you can create a separate condensed view using a different different dashboard number to build on.
 
Hello,

I recently downloaded Craft Beer Pi 4, and I'm looking to use it with my Raspberry Pi 5 to run my electric brewery. I went through all the appropriate steps to download the software, added the plug-in for my Adafruit PT100s, and started setting up my 3-wire (RTD) sensors within the app. Each time I try to set up a sensor, I receive an error stating "GP10 busy." I've done all the troubleshooting I can think of, and I'm at the end of my abilities. I receive the "GP10 busy" error regardless of whether I have the breakout board or any wires attached. Any help would be appreciated.

I'll add more details to help with troubleshooting: The "CLK" wire is connected to GPIO 11, the SDI (MISO wire) is connected to GPIO 9, and the SDO (MOSI wire) is connected to GPIO 10. It appears that low power (2V or less) is constantly being applied to GPIO9 and 10. I have enabled SPI within the Raspberry Pi configuration.

I can provide more details if that would be helpful.

Hey Patrick.. I've got cbpi4 running on my Pi5. Also using RTDs for temperature sensing.

Did you follow the installation instructions posted here:

https://openbrewing.gitbook.io/craftbeerpi4_support/readme/server-installation

I've used that documentation to build several instances over the last few months without trouble.

Can you clarify where you downloaded the image and what steps you used to install cbpi?

I'm assuming you've checked for other hardware or sensors that may have inadvertently been assigned gpio10?

One other thing to verify is that you've got the right pins on the Pi5 identified... I know someone who once plugged an extension cable in backwards and fried their shiny new pi5 by shorting some things... That was embarrassing.

There is also an active Facebook group for Craftbeerpi that the developers frequent that may be of some help.. I'm not a huge fan of Facebook, but that's where the group landed.

Share some more details and I'll do what I can to help.

Thanks for the reply! I followed the steps listed in the link you posted, then added the PT100 plug-in using the steps from here: https://openbrewing.gitbook.io/craftbeerpi4_support/readme/plugin-installation

I’ve tried to check what might be using GPIO10, but all I see is that it is unused. I haven’t installed anything but CBPI4 and the plug-in on the micro disk (and Raspian), so I’m not sure what else might be using it.

I’ve tried two different breakout boards and verified the “SDO” wire is going into the GPIO10 slot on each (one is listed as MOSI). Even without the boards or wires attached, I get then”GP10 busy” error, so I’m assuming it’s a software issue. This also happens even when nothing has been assigned within CBPI4.

It’s promising to hear CBPI4 is working for you on a Raspberry Pi 5, but I’m at a loss as to what to do next.
