I now have new input on this. On a RevPi where I ran "timedatectl set-ntp false" and it ran ok in lab for a couple of days. When it was deployed in real installation - a tech connected PC via eth B and saw the date was correct, but the RJ45 connector was not properly inserted/secured, so i...

I have a few RevPi Connects, and they now started setting the date 3 months back. Every time I boot - the clock goes back to april 6'th 10:58:35. I noticed that if I did # timedatectl set-ntp true - the time would NOT be reset through a boot. What would you recommend to ENSURE that the clock/system ...

I have the same kind of anomaly and it is repeatable ; If I powercycle the RevPi, the date goes to april 6'th 10:58:35. I tested, and when I disabled ntp sync, it no longer happened - I just put two pcs in testbed now with some rebooting scripts to see what happens. -Dirk - what happens if I do not ...

One Revpi Connect is logging sensordata on a ship. It is in a remote part of the ship and not connected to a network. It has a WiFi USB and acts as an ap for servicepeople to connect and download the logs. All of a sudden, sometime during the summer (probably around end of July) the system time was ...

I use virtual machines in Parallels on my MAC to do development.
I find that I cannot use the Stretch-image that is downloadable to do this.
Is it possible to get an image that can be used in virtualized machines ?

Ahhh - ok - so one thing was missing - simply because I didn't think of it; the Modbus master service is not enabled by default - which file controls this ?
As it is, I have to go in the webGUI and check "Enable/Disable Modbus Master"

Excellent !!
Thank you so much.
That makes serial rollouts so much easier.

I have a functional setup with a RevPi Connect where I have configured in Pictory a Modbus Master 150 that reads and exports values.
What is required to have the same config/setup on new RevPi connects I buy ?
Is it enough to copy the project files under /var/www/pictory ?

I am using the RevPi Connect with some sensors connected as RTU slaves. I am reading 20 word-sized registers (some of which to be interpreted as IEE754 later) from them. I put the read values in Input_Word_1, Input_Word_21, Input_Word_21 etc just adding the number of registers read each time. I am n...
