Hi Pranjal,
Have you modified the
Quote:/home/pi/PeppyMeter/config.txt
as reported on the tutorial?
I did Francesco, but in Moode 7.3, this option is not there
Code: "screen.size = large"
Could you please try:
Code: cat /home/pi/PeppyMeter/config.txt
Yes certainly, the results are as below :-
Code: pi@moode:~ $ cat /home/pi/PeppyMeter/config.txt
[current]
meter = random
random.meter.interval = 20
meter.size = large
screen.width =400
screen.height =800

output.serial = False
output.i2c = False
output.pwm = False

Thanks and regards,

Please help
Hi dear,
The "meter size" and "screen size" difference is due to the new Peppymeter version: sorry.
The simptom seems to be related to the output display: have you a flat touch screen directly connected to the display port of your Raspberry?
Regards,
Francesco

Francesco Yes I have a 5" screen connected directly to the RPI pins and the HDMI out of the RPi is connected to the HDMI in of the screen

Hello,
All the procedure has been tested with a 7' touch screen directly connected to the raspberry display port.
Anyway let us try to disabile the mouse in the [sei.env] section of the /home/pi/PeppyMeter/config.txt.
Code: mouse.enabled = False
Let me know, good luck.

From the error messages, it looks for all the world like the command you issued was:
Code: sudo cp /home/pi/PeppyMeter/peppymeter.service /etc/systemd/system/sudo cp /home/pi/PeppyMeter/peppymeter.service /etc/systemd/system/

Whenever you create or update a systemd unit you need to ether run the command below or reboot so systemd picks up the change.
Code: sudo systemctl daemon-reload

Hi
you have, probably, copied twice the command:
Code: sudo cp /home/pi/PeppyMeter/peppymeter.service /etc/systemd/system/

@ Tim Curtis
Hello Tim,
Of course you are right, but everything is reported in the GITHUB that Pranjal is following, in particular in the section: Creation of scripts & service .
Thank you very much and best regards,
Francesco
