Question

I am conncted through SSH using putty to my RUT955. I would like to read the status of the digital/analog ports.

According to this page (RUT955 Input/Output - Teltonika Networks Wiki (teltonika-networks.com)), I could use the command ubus call ioman.gpio.din1 status;

I get the message that the command is unfound. What is the right way to work with this command ?

Comments

I notice the same thing.

I also notice that typing ioman alone comes up with:

Arguments failed

Usage: [input (digital1, digital2, analog)] [value (0, 1, volts (0.018))]
OK, so I then type_______________:   ioman input digital1 
no error, but no data.
so I try _______________:   ioman input digital1 {status, value, 0, 1, volts}
they all produce "Arguments failed"
If I omit "input" thinking that is simply a keyword and the actual arguments are digital1, digital2, analog that is also an error
that also raises the question "ioman" implies Input and Output - yet there is no mention of that in the Usage
I think this utility is only 25% done at best, and broken.

So, I think, OK, there is a curl prototype too...

curl -X GET "http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/io_value?username=user1&password=user1&pin=dout1"

that returns an error too  - whether issued from the CLI or from the PC connected to it

The requested URL /cgi-bin/io_value?username=user1&password=user1&pin=dout1 was not found on this server.root@Teltonika-RUT955:

aha... some developments...
I upgraded from FW RUT9xx_R_00.06.09.2 to FW RUT9xx_R_00.07.02.7 now ioman appears to be non-existent as well as ioman.ioman.gpio.din1

However... the curl now works... I like having bouncy hair ;-)

curl -X GET "http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/io_value?username=user1&password=user1&pin=dout1"

Except it does not return any value - no errors...
I did change to a password other than user1 and initially "Bad username or password" came up as an error
That was corrected, and now I get nothing...

Then I thought, OK, let's see if the output works... When I sent

curl -X GET "http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/io_state?username=user1&password=user1&pin=dout1&state=on"

I received the response: OK... but it didn't actually change the state as reported by the UI

When I change the state through the UI, nothing is different in the CLI world  ... work in progress

Hello,

I have tried the commands and curl requests, but the values were returned, changed and curl requests worked as well. Below is a snippet from my shell, tested on RUT955 RUT9_R_00.07.02.7 firmware:

root@Teltonika-RUT955:~# ubus call ioman.gpio.dout1 status
{
        "value": "0",
        "direction": "out",
        "bi_dir": false
}
root@Teltonika-RUT955:~# curl -X GET "http://192.168.5.1/cgi-bin/io_state?username=user&password=pass&pin=dout1&state=on"
OK
root@Teltonika-RUT955:~# ubus call ioman.gpio.dout1 status
{
        "value": "1",
        "direction": "out",
        "bi_dir": false
}
root@Teltonika-RUT955:~# curl -X GET "http://192.168.5.1/cgi-bin/io_value?username=user&password=pass&pin=dout1"
1root@Teltonika-RUT955:~#

The noteworthy thing is that io_value is returned next to the system username in the last line, so it might have gone unnoticed.

Hello,

The command below should give you exactly the result, provided in the wiki link you have referenced:

• ubus call ioman.gpio.din1 status

Could you provide a screenshot of the error?

What is the firmware version that your device is using.

Could you attach a troubleshoot file from your device? To generate the file, access router's WebUI, go to System -> Administration -> Troubleshoot section and download troubleshoot file from there.

Best regards,

Here is a screenshot, and the troubleshoot file.

What is the firmware version of your device?

I installed the last version about a few weeks ago. Is there a way to get directly the current of the firmware through the CLI ?

Knowing that these commands do not work at the moment, is there an alternative for reading the status of the analog/digital pins ?

Legacy firmware versions have a different command to retrieve input/output status, as well as several other functionalities:

• gpio.sh

If you simply enter gpio.sh in the CLI and press Enter, you will get a short description, on how to use the command.

However, to get the status of DIN1 specifically, simply execute the following:

• gpio.sh get DIN1
