Rtd module

Hi there,
I feel a bit lonely on this forum :) . Am I the first poster? And where are the posts from your old forumr?

My question: we purchased the 8 channel RTD-module V6.1. I installed the rtd-software, the CLI-commands are working OK, i.e. valid values from the sensor!
But when I use the nodered-driver it doesnt work, I always get a "remote IO error".
When I use the nodered example (this example does not make use of the driver from the nodered palette)
https://github.com/SequentMicrosystems/rtd-rpi/blob/master/node-red/RTD_example1.json,
everything is working OK! Great! Has board V6.1 anything to do with this?

Regards
Fred

Old forum is still active, but we did not find a way to move all the posts to the new one, so we start from scratch.
Alex will answer your Node-RED for RTD question.

Well I found the"error", or misinterpretation of the nodered configuration.
You have to define the board stack-level, which I interpretated as the stack-level or number configured by the dip-switches of the rtd- module.
After modifying the configuration everthing works great now!

Hi,

The example that works is using the exec node to run the CLI. Some time when you did not install the node from Manage palette menu is not installing all the dependences. Please open a terminal and run "npm install i2c-bus".
