eibd via usb

[inthalas]

Hello everyone, I am an engineering student who needs help, I've been stopped more than a week. I apologize for not knowing German.

I have some KNX devices, and I have to connect to the PC. My objetive is to have bus access knx, and to read and write on the bus. I think the easiest is to do with eibd.
To connect via USB eibd I use ubuntu 9.04 with 0.0.4, and 2130 JUNG USB.
My problem is that when I write "# findknxusb" nothing appears.
But if the CD KNXLIVE use when I write "# findknxusb" I recognize the device and tells me he is 3:2:1:0, and then write "# eibd-i usb: 3:2:1:0" and works well.

Why not work in Ubuntu?
Thank you very much everybody.

Hi and welcome, I might also apologise for not knowing Spanish

You might also ask your question on the mailing list for the eibd, i.e. the Bcusdk-list (https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/...fo/bcusdk-list).

As I don't have a USB device (but I've got Kubuntu ) I can't give you direct help. But I can guess that it might be missing permissions of the USB device

Pleasy try a

cat /proc/bus/usb/devices

In the output you should find your KNX USB interface, otherwise something is wrong with your USB support in the kernel.

The last release of EIBD requires usbfs mounted, which is not the case on newer distributions.
Please check that usbfs is mounted or upgrade to the GIT version.

Hello, I tried to mount the usb, adding in / etc / fstab the line:
none / proc / bus / usb usbfs defaults, devmode = 0777 0 0

Now I recognize the device, but I can not load the eibd, when I try tells me:

int @ pc7071te: / $ findknxusb
Possible addresses for KNX USB devices:
device 3:2:1:0 (ALBRECHT JUNG GMBH & CO. KG: KNX-USB Data Interface)
int @ pc7071te: / $ eibd -i usb:3:2:1:0
url not supported

Any help please.
Danke.

Insert a space between eibd and "-i" and leave out the space between usb: and 3:2:1:0, so try:

eibd -i usb:3:2:1:0

I'm sorry, I wrote wrong in the forum.
I wrote it as you say: "#eibd-i usb:3:2:1:0"
the problem persists.

Danke.

Hi inthalas

eibd-i usb:3:2:1:0 -> no good
eibd -i usb:3:2:1:0 -> better

[jonofe]

did you compile the eibd by yourself?
Then you probably missed to integrate the USB support.

try a

 ./configure --help

in the eibd source directory. Then you can see all options you can add to the configure command. I think it is --enable-usb or something like that.

Then please retry with the new binary.

eibd --help

lists the supported backends.

findknxusb (and usb support in bcuaddrtab) is only installed, if the usb backend is enabled.

[inthalas]

Thank you very much everybody.
Now it works. It was what you said, to compile I had to add:
#./configure --enable-usb

Hallo,

Ich habe die SW for eibd auf mein Ubuntu laptop installiert, aber kan mit findknxusb mein USB-KNX niecht finden.

Wenn ich aber in /var/log/messages schau, sehe ich im Kernel:
generic-usb 0003:145C:1330.0001:hiddev96, hidraw0: USB HID v1.01 Device [Busch-Jaeger Elektro GmbH KNX-USB Interface (Flush mounted)] on usb-0000:00:1d.1-1/input0

Aber ich kan es nicht activieren with eibd -i usb:0

Ich habe auch verschieden andere combinationen versucht aber keine wirkt. Kann jemand mich bitte weiter helfen?

Grusse,
Rick

Hoi Rick

Versuch mal:

/usr/bin/eibd -S -D -i -T -d -u -c -e 1.1.254 usb:[COLOR=SeaGreen][bus[:device[:config[:interface]]]][/COLOR]

Die Parameter kannst Du mit lsusb herausfinden.

[drummer]

Bodo,

Danke fur die schnelle antwort, aber hat nog immer kein resultat.

eibd -i -u -c -e 1.1.254 usb:5:2:1:0
initialisation of the backend failed

Ich habe den bcu kernel nur mit --enable-onlyeibd --enable-usb --enable-ft12 configuriert.

Muss ja nischts ausmachen oder?

Auch mahl versucht um bcuaddrtab zu benutzen:
bcuaddrtab -t1023 -w 0 usb:5:3
Layer 1(08C82668,4C680EC5) Detect
Layer 1(08C82668,4C680EC5) Close
Layer 1(08C82668,4C680EC5) Release
Layer 1(08C82668,4C680EC5) Close
Segmentation fault

ALso hier ist richtig was nicht gut.. aber was???
