Sorry to ask a question again so soon. The relay and door are working fine. But. The relay appears to be on all the time. (except on first power up when it's in a floating state) When triggered from the app, it goes off and then back on. This pulse is fine for operating the door, but I have an addi...

No problem, happy to help where I can. Glad you got it working and learnt something new too.

My question has already been asked in the past, but I am unable to find the answer. So please excuse me for asking again. I have just set up 'pirelaypro' to work with my google home and IFTTT. I am using the commands http://your-pi-ip-address/gpio.php?pin=1&status=1 and http://yourpi-ip-address...

Hello, I have purchased your Pro application. So far I got it working on PC browser on the same network, but not from my phone (from the IP). Should be there some more instruction on your webpage? https://sites.google.com/a/jasonfindlay.com/pi-relay/ To me it looks like its just end with pictures a...

About time today update pirelay and got what i need after wait for years well done jason! Keep up the good work will let know if any bugs / feedback Hi there poweredbyant... Very pleased to see you are still here, still using the app and are pleased to receive the update. :D Yes I got myself an And...

Hi PaulMorris30,

You don't need to pay again, I have issued a Play Store update which will sort it out for you. Please update the app again and your licence should now show as purchased . Also PM sent..

P.S. Watchitexplode - You need to name the php file gpio.php and not gpio.php.save it should work for you then assuming you have added the contents to the file correctly and installed the required components. Thank you for the response! I thought that might be the problem, but couldn't figure out h...

Hi All Sorry I've been quiet for so long, lots of changes in my life over the past couple of years meant that I haven't had time to work on developing this for a while. I wont have time to answer everyone's questions but will try to drop in from time to time help where I can. At this point in time I...

im a big pain in the but i totally agree... but im having a hard time with the gpio pins, i think im at the point where i need instructions like... cable 1: second pin on the right.... other wise i dont see my project getting built here ! pplease anyone ! :) and thank you Hello again, have you seen...

Ok sounds like you are all set to go then.

By the way, I'm using a 2A power supply as well, on a Pi model B+, but I will disconnect the Pi-camera while using the relay module, as I don't need it for this project and it uses some power too.
Best regards.

No problem, let us know how you get on...

hello so i check my wiring everyrhing is connected properly, when i go to the raspberrypi/gpio.php i get : relay1: 0 relay 2:1 relay3:1 relay4;0 relay 5;0 relay 6;0 relay7;1 relay8;1 Hi - Okay, so it looks like the Pi side of things is working, it also looks like you have turned on relays 2,3,7 and...

jazzler

I think you have understood correctly. But keep in mind that the Pi will also be using the power from the usb cable to power up the Pi itself. So it has more to do with the supply to the Pi really via your 5v usb power supply and the cable. If you are using a 1A power supply, just keep in mind that ...

jazzler

Hello, The 5v pin as I understand it passes straight through from the usb power supply, that's what I use. If you have a 3.3v relay board and want to power it from the Pi you should make sure it does not exceed 50mA as i am lead to believe that is its limitation, in reality I would stay well away fr...

For those interested in an iOS version of the app, i've started developing it in Xcode, and i've got it switching on my iPhone 6 running ios9. It's early days in the development process, so could be a way off completion yet, and I may run into issues which may take time to resolve, or may even not b...

Did your Pi Boot up with the new SD Image? is it connected to your network? and is the phone connected to your wifi? If so, try restarting your phone to clear any DNS caching in case its picked up an old IP address. if its still not working open your web browser on your phone and go to http://raspbe...

I have now finished uploading the new SD image (1.84GB) This is based on the release of Raspbian Jessie which was released on 24/09/2015. This image is now compatible with both the Pi and Pi2. (Confirmed) https://www.dropbox.com/s/lxzimsbdyt84q6z/2015-09-24-raspbian-jessie-pirelay.zip?dl=0 Apologies...

jazzler

Ok, sounds like there definitely needs to be a new disk image to cater for the pi2. I have been testing using a new image of Raspian Jessie this morning, and I followed my instructions. It seems that in the latest version of Apache the location has moved where the gpio.php file needs to go. Realitym...

hello iv downloaded the SD download to put on the pie but when i put it in and start it, the ethernet port wont connect or the lights wont even turn on.... how can i fix that ??? Hello - do you have a raspberry pi or Raspberry Pi2? I have not created an SD card image for the Pi2 yet as I do not own...

jazzler

Hi BuffKnysna, Yes you can do with with the app 'as is'. What you would need to do is change the PHP code in your GPIO.php file to use an IF statement in your PHP script, that executes the Wiring Pi command to control those pins when something like IF $_GET['pin'] = 1 then command X e.g. $output = s...

jazzler

Well done Pelti, Thanks for updating with your results. I have updated my earlier post now to reflect the lower case P and S in the link. Sorry I should have been more careful when replying. Glad you got it sorted now. Its strange that the Denver tac-70051 doesn't post the web command, unfortunately...

Hi Richard-TX,

Great call about using a webpage to change/start/stop a radio station. It's got me thinking of tweaking my PHP script to do this or similar from within the app..

Thanks for the feedback

jazzler

Hi BuffKnysna, I believe it is possible to control the GPIO headers with other apps in the play store using Bluetooth, but this app (Pi Relay) is specifically designed to work over your home network. Is there a reason why you would not want to use it over your Wifi/Network? When configured it should...

jazzler

Hi Pelti, It looks like you may have wired your relay to GPIO Pin 4, it's odd that Relay 7 is showing as on when you go to the webpage (Unless perhaps you activated this pin through the app without realising it?). If you want to do more testing, try turning all the relays on/off in the app to see wh...

jazzler

Hi Pelti, From terminal to test it, use the commands for Wiring Pi, First type in: gpio mode 1 out Then: gpio write 1 1 This will turn on the GPIO input for relay 1, To turn it off again use: gpio write 1 0 Also for testing purposes, you can go to: http://192.168.1.30/gpio.php from a computer or pho...
