New device, set up error 121

[alpapak]

Hello,
I have one upsplus and after following the setup manual and running the install script i got error 121

Any idea?

[check0r0]

Buster or Bullseye?

Put this down in the console: sudo i2cdetect -y 1
and show the result.

Hi,

i have Buster. It seems that i had to add in boot/config.txt dtoverlay=i2c-rtc,ds1307. Now, it is boot up and then halt.

Did you fix the problem?

I have the same problem right now.

I have a RPi 4B model, bullseye x64.

I've tried to write 0x00 in the address 50 in the same way OTA_firmware_upgrade.py does at the end of the script without success (bus.write_byte_data(0X18, 50, 0)):

i2cset -y 1 0x18 50 0 b

The only way I could get out of the firmware upgrade mode (0x18) to the operational mode (0x17) was to proceed a complete firmware upgrade running:

python3 OTA_firmware_upgrade.py
sudo halt

I removed batteries and external power source, reinstalled batteries, and the UPSPlus was working in the 0x17 operation mode, back again.

i gave it up and order another hat from another company. I stoped using it from my last post.

@alpapak, which one, if you don't mind to inform for a next purchase? because it is very disappointing about having no clue on miss-functions of the upsplus.

@mmaga
please check me repo.
you will find your answer.
i am using it in my project for 6months and i am very happy.
