Dear Hari, gd dy! Many thanks for your reply

I follow up according to Bongo howto. after clean installing of lmce (8.10 ver. 23618) and updating/upgrading my step by step actions as flws:
1. Plugging computer interface PLCBUS-T 1141 usb into usb port, PLCBUS script start automatically and Transceiver Module PLCBUS-T 4023 (A1 address) switched on automatically also.
- lmce inform: You connected a PLCBUS (Pluto/Lighting interface)... Shall I use it?
- I confirm it and Wizard has start automatically on chapt. LIGHT where shown "Waiting for the new ..." Then I push OK button.
Remarks: My all previous installing has an msg in Wizard everytime: "The device failed to start properly. Something is not right"
- Webadmin/Devices/Interfaces found automatically: Device #34, Device template #1920, Controlled by CORE, PLCBUS, COM Port on PC has not been selected, Serial No: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_67b_2303_noserial, PNP Signature: 16, HAL
2. Quick reload Router, Regen Orbiter
- Webadmin/Devices/Interfaces: the Serial No of Device #34 has missed
Remarks: If I switching off an PLCBUS-T 4023 Transceiver by Remote Control or by local button the script 99_PLCBUS_1141.sh was start automatically and switch on an Transceiver again.
3. Adding a light in webadmin manually. Make a choice a Switch On/Off (Transceiver can work as the switch on/off module only) and give an address A1.
4. Reset the lighting device (blue led flashes repeatedly), and press test commands "on" You will here 1 or 2 buzz. Now you can control the device.
- I can't complete this step
Remarks: After the child was created/added and after regen/reload orbiters the system found an Generic serial device (Bongo: It was good to say no to the usb to serial device, after that the plcbus script will run). I choice a No in this time and the system does not running script and as a result the Transceiver does not switched on automatically.

Which Serial port of Interface I should fix an RS232 or USB? I use computer interface PLCBUS-T 1141 usb

Moreover in addition setup of Interface and Child the Manufacturer defined automatically as PLUTO 1 instead of Shanghai Supersmart. Is it normal or not?

Awaiting yours,
BRG

Bongo

I was mistaken in Transceiver Module PLCBUS-T 4023G assignment.
It is really intended for a signal transmission from the Remote Control (such as PLC-RF 4073E) to any PLC-Bus modules and can work as the switch on/off module also.

Could you please review my Log in attachment for errors. I see the Device died periodically.

Hi guys!
Somebody has set up plc-bus?
According to Bongowongo HOWTO my PC interface PLCBUS-T 1141 was found as PLCBUS and Transceiver Module PLCBUS-T 4023G (http://www.plcbus.com.cn/Html/news/1462.html) has been switched on automatically, but not created in webadmin. Then, I add new child manually via webadmin with address A1 (an Transceiver Module PLCBUS-T 4023G I can operate by Remote Control PLC-RF 4073E with address A1). After resetting an Transceiver Module PLCBUS-T 4023G I can't to learn it via TEST ON/OFF buttons in webadmin, but new set up of 4023 by 4073E has properly done. May be need more detailed instructions for learning devices? or devices have an errors in lmce?

Hi guys!

I'm novice 'nix / PLC-Bus and can't request any help from Russia.
Could you please help me with setting up my PLC-Bus II devices (http://plcbus.com.cn/Index.html) in mce 8.10?
I following up according to instruction from http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Setting_Up_PLC-BUS_Template#Adding_a_Code_Group, but childs are not operable.
In my opinion that instruction is not complete, because all devices can operate from 1141 via Tranceiver #4022/4023 only.
Can anybody shown the step by step instruction on setting up?
My devices:  PLCBUS 1141E USB, PLCBUS-R 2220E, PLCBUS-R 2221E, PLCBUS-R 2263D, PLCBUS-R 2264D, PLCBUS-R 2267HE, PLCBUS-P 2026G, PLCBUS-P 2027G, PLC-RF 4073E, PLCBUS-T 4023G
