We are a developer of hobby farm management systems.
Hobby farm owners are often absent and would appreciate all the 24/7 help they can get with monitoring gates and water levels and turning lights and pumps on and off. A SNAP mesh network should work well in this environment.
For various reasons we have chosen an Intel/Ubuntu server to interface with the owner wherever they be via his browser and the Internet.
But here's our problem.
Although we've been working the sensor/actuator side with considerable success, we've yet to succeed in establishing the keystone of the project, snapconnect.
Here's where we're at.
After installing pip, we successfully sudo uninstalled a previously sudo installed snapconnnect-3.4.5 and installed the current version.
DisplayInfo.py indicates this version to be 3.5.1!
It also fails to complete. See the attachment.
We tried the McastCounter.py example having selected our appropriate options: SNAPSTICK 100 and /dev/ttys1 (see the attachment). The result states that USB communication with the SNAPSTICK is not supported (see the attached output)!
Questions:
1. Does the snapconnect 3.4.5 document accurately describe 3.5.1?
2. Do you or don't you support SNAPSTICK100 in a Linux environment?
3. What's wrong with the pip install procedure or is DisplayInfo broken?
Help!
(See the attached myEnvironment for what we're working with.)
