Automate mfser interface RS-232 mode

[Julien DEV]

Hi,

I use Conduit AEP Model with MTAC-MFSER and I have to Set RS-232 mode with this line at each restart of Conduit :
$ mts-io-sysfs store mfser/serial-mode rs232

Is it possible to automate this ?

Thanks for your help.

Julien,

If you are using Node-RED you should be able to execute a system call to run the mts-io-sysfs command once in your flow. If you are not, you can either add this command to one of the later init scripts during boot or add your own init script to simply execute this command at start. If you add an init script remember that it will be overwritten when a firmware upgrade is done.

A third alternative would be to use a simple custom application that only executes this command every time it starts, though that might be a little bit of overkill.

For information I do this and it’s ok.
Thanks

nano /etc/init.d/mystart.sh
—————-
#!/bin/sh
mts-io-sysfs store mfser/serial-mode rs232
exit 0
—————-
chmod a+x /etc/init.d/mystart.sh
ln -s /etc/init.d/mystart.sh /etc/rc3.d/S99mystart.sh
ln -s /etc/init.d/mystart.sh /etc/rc5.d/S99mystart.sh
