[solved]Pimatic with homeduino stops sometimes working...

---

Hi
I am using a raspberry 1 with an homeduino for switching 433 mhz power outlests. Nothing else is running only pimatic.
Pimatic (or better the homeduino) stops working regularly. Every second day, i cannot switch sockets anymore, it just says: Oops Timeout.
After restarting pimatic, it works again…

In the logs i cannot find anything.

Whats wrong?
Any idea how to resolve this?

Grüße

I had the same problems. My problem was that my usb port changed. What I now use is serial by path. Look in dev/serial/by-path/ when you unplug / plug your usb of the homeduino. Then you know it exactly. Then you use that complete in your config. Here’s my config:

“plugin”: “homeduino”,
“driver”: “serialport”,
“driverOptions”: {
“serialDevice”: “/dev/serial/by-path/platform-3f980000.usb-usb-0:1.3.1:1.0-port0”,
“baudrate”: 115200

Look here the thread were they helped me.

Thanks for the answer,

But why should the port change? I do not stop the raspi, or pimatic,nor do i remove the homeduino…

Will look into your thread.
