./install.shThis repo is a collection of expansions for the venus-os from victronenergy running on a raspberry pi. As i only have a raspberry pi 2 everything is only tested on this device. Detailed descriptions about required changes and installation are inside the respective folders.
When venus os is updated the rootfs is overwritten and all changes would be lost. To prevent this put the repository on /data and the installer script adds a hook to /data/rc.local which checks that the expansion pack is reinstalled after a software update.

This makes up to four relays available in the gui to control via the raspberry py gpios
The sim7600 raspberry pi hat from waveshare is fully functional and integrated in venus os with both gsm/4g and gps working with full integration into the gui
Currently not installable automatically and working only partially The sim800 raspberry pi hat from waveshare was my first shot at adding gsm+gps to the venus os. However due too the single serial interface i only got either gsm or gps working never both at the same time
Currently not installable automatically and working only partially The ads1115 is an adc with 4 channels atached to the i2c interface. The goal would be to integrate it as tank/temperature sensor into the venus gui Support for ads1115 is developped in a seperate repository and is a work in progress.
