Hello,

I have just paid for the automation licence in the hope I could run command line scripts on the Raspberry Pi to read out current (ideally average current over a period) via USB.

I have been on this forum looking for support on implementing this and I have seen a few posts saying the Otii is not supported on the Pi. Is this also the case for the otiicli script version?

I do not need the desktop version, just something that will print out current that I can read from a python script I am running on the Pi.

Please could you advise if this is even possible?

Thanks,  
Liam

Hi Liam,

Yes, the same goes for otiicli, it is not supported.  
Right now we do not have any installer for Pi.

Best regards,  
Björn

Hi Bjorn,

Thank you for this, is it possible to get a refund for my licence? I only purchased 1h ago.

Thanks,
