Beacon setup


Recommended Posts

Need some help setting up Beacon, it’s a Rev H. I have followed the instructions on the Beacon website. I have my CanBus working fine, I ran the USB cable for the Beacon, plugged into my RPi. When I SSH into my RPi and enter the command to get the dev ID for the probe, I get no such file or directory. What am I missing/doing wrong??

You're looking for a file under /dev/serial/by-id, correct? The appearance of that file should be completely automatic - you shouldn't have to do anything but plug in the USB cable at both ends (Beacon and RPi). Check the wiring and try a different USB port on the Pi. If that doesn't help, the Beacon might be DOA.
