Need guidance to get SmartVISU and KNX running

[Sjefen]

I'm also having a little problem with starting the Eibd daemon upon boot. I manually have to start it with this cmd:
sudo eibd -D -S -T -i --eibaddr=0.0.1 --daemon=/var/log/eibd.log --no-tunnel-client-queuing ipt:10.0.0.85.
This command is picked from this site: http://ekblad.org/knx/.
Shouldn't Smarthome.py be able to start the daemon upon boot?

Hey Sjefen,

at first make sure that smartvisu.conf is edited and saved as "UTF-8 without BOM". So you will get rid of the ERROR in your debuglog.

Did you use the image which is available for Raspi or did you set it up from scratch?

Regards,
Bernd

just put the eibd command in a normal linux startup script?

Finally I've got some KNX values on my smartvisu page I changed

[cli]
class_name = CLI
class_path = plugins.cli
ip = '0.0.0.0' from 127.0.0.1
update = True

in usr/smarthome/etc/plugins.conf.

But now I've got temperature visualized, but not the temperature setpoint or modes. The graphics are invisble for those last items (no buttons or values displayed)

I don't understand why it requests the invalid items marked as red below. I haven't defined those GA's anywhere.

Hi,
Just wanted to update you on the matter of post #20. Seems these GAs' are default in the index.html for moonphase values etc..

But still haven't found a solution on the termostat (rtr widget) which only shows actual temperature and hides the other values and buttons within the frame.
Thanks for all your help and support! Would have got this up and running without You and this great forum
