No booting process with light blink
after powering it up, it is showing in attached image condition.

can you let me know how can i correct this if such condition occur in omega2.

Omega light is stable but it's AP mode is not showing "Omega-XXXX" through which i can connect.

Actually i was trying to factory reset omega2 using power dock. but due to usb disconnect factory reset stuck in the mid. and now whenever i do powering it up.. it is not showing booting process with light blinking.
when i plug power omega2 light get stable permanently and does not booting.

how can i correct it, now..?

Hello @administrators ,

Will you please let me know that why new firmware V0.3.2 is changing wlan0 MAC address, is this a bug OR onion is doing it legally..?

We are organisation and have lots of omega2, for which generated the serial number of devices on the basis of their mac address, now if I try to apply newer firmware it is changing my omega2's MAC address. i have purchased those omega2 approx 1 year ago.. and currently using version firmware v0.2.2 b200.

Suggest me, Please...

@Lazar-Demin Thank you

@Filipe-Madureira ,

I also had been facing same problem since last year. and have not got proper solution.
There is alternate solution through which i get out of this issue and that is power supply.

1. change the power supply Pin-board, that means plugin omega somewhere else from where you get proper supply (i got it by using this).
2. or change power supply mode through USB directly from your computer usb port.
3. or use a 3-pin adaptor/plug (i.e. which adaptor have 3 pin).

Hope this will resolve your issue.
i know this is quite not proper technical solution but beleive me i got it by using point no 1 and 3

Hello @Lazar-Demin , @administrators

Please help me out to find the real and working updated firmware, there are 2 places where omega2 updates resides:

1. https://api.onioniot.com/firmware/omega2/stable (which works through oupgrade command)
2. According to https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/manual-firmware-installation.html there is another location of firmwares which is http://repo.onioniot.com/omega2/images/

Now let me know that which firmware should i go through as both of the resources contain different version of omega OS...
i have 1-2 year older omega2 chip, will it be ok with newer firmware..? if yes then with which firmware point no 1 or point no 2

Please guid me

you can do the same by following below steps:

1. connect with Omega AP with default psk.
2. take terminal access through putty or any other software.
3. run command wifisetup
4. press 1 for scan network near by you. (you can also choose 2 and enter all details manually)
5. choose your network
6. choose your network security
7. enter password

it will take time of approx 5-10 sec and restart it's wifi adaptor and will get connect automatically.

Please let me know in case if by above instruction your issue didn't get resolve.

I think maybe this will help you guys to help me out, I am not using any language, for now, I avoid every language and following the instruction
UART Testing Basic Level as per Omega guidance link:: https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/uart1.html

and I found it fails as I had said earlier and as I was saying in my above queries, now please any professional guy there who can help me, please.
screenshot attached..!!

@György-Farkas said in UART Buffer is not containing data, while from other ends it ensures data is being written every second:

PySerial works with the full version of Python 2.7 only.

See Mr. Farkas, once again you treated me in such a way that I or our organization team does not know anything. but Thanks you, we need no reply from your side.
but for your kind information, i as myself has expertise in python, I can and have the abilities to customize any python package.

pyserial also works with python-light and we have delivered and made so many project.

for now i do not want to argue with you as i am not individual i am representing my company here, and looking for buffer solution.

please thanks for your reply, you are totally psycho i do no need of your reply. thank you very much.

Hey is there anyone else who can listen to me and can give solution with manner.

I have working python code, and working circuit which is going to be delivered to be our client AS an IOT device,
We are organisation and ordered huge amount of omega, and my team found some of the omega is not responding properly even by upgrading latest firmware.
Python code is working fine and circuit too with some of the omega2 but not working with rest of the.

Issue is ttyS1 always show as blank when I try to read it through same python code and also
Some of the pieces of omega2 is responding but in such manner like buffer “ttyS1” is not responding properly and seems like it hanging.

While entire omega is empty, no file no extra space occupied by us other than installing
Python-light and pyserial
I will try to share Some screenshots to you guys so that any professional guy can help me and my team from this.

Thanks

@György-Farkas hey, first of all bunch of thanks for keeping continue with me... and not keeping quite...

As I said in my original comment and in the last reply, we have ordered big from omega so definitely we have older and newer version both.
We have tried on both.
We have tried a lot in different way, some of the omega is running perfectly from ordered one but on some of the pieces of omega we found ttyS1 is remains empty And some of the pieces omega is working but reading from buffer is seem like sticking somewhere like hanging. we (I.e. entire team) we Check all these
with the same hardware connection and with the same details I shared AS you were forcing and try to show we organisations are idiot who do not know about simple python coding

You are replying continuously in such a way that you do not want to support your customer/organisation, your reply is showing clearly.
And if you are hired for omega community talk let’s come on private conversation through email I am gonna add my CTO with your boss about you and your behaviour.

Because Instead of helping, who are you... ?? Who is continue with your comment in a tont way Perhaps you do not know company has their own copyrights and cant share you ENTIRE PCB means we can’t. if you do have solution then please else SHUT YOUR MOUTH.

It seems you are a street boy, who only know to pass comment and tont do you know professsionalism, I don’t think so.

And please I Really need help because everything is fine other than buffer responding in omega so please if you do have solutions, then please else please I DO NOT NEED YOUR REPLY, else I will return all the defected pieces even entire order back to omega JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR BEHAVIOUR AND NO SOLUTIONS.
Thank you

@György-Farkas Sorry to say but your phsyco reply force me to give you python code
python code:
from serial import Serial
from time import sleep
ser = Serial('/dev/ttyS1', baudrate=115200, timeout=1)
while True:
ser.readline()
sleep(0.5)

and do not worry about the connection at the hardware level , we have an entire team for that each and everyone verify and for your information please with the same connection and the older omega with old firmware 0.1.9 I am able to do so i.e. able to read data from ttyS1 using the same code and same hardware circuit. and also would like to share you that we do not use the sold wire, we have completely designed PCB in full professional way.

we have done a lot of IOT project on serial and UART ONCE AGAIN I WOULD LIKE TO SAY YOU/TEAM I AM NOT INDIVIDUAL WE ARE ORGANIZATION, and we can't share you entire code/hardware screenshot.

I will surely give you upvote and appreciate if you had given me the solution with understanding my issue, other than being first to reply on the query.

Thank you very much, if you will or not will able to give my solutions.

but would like to share you we have to return entire order to onion omega if this is not get resolved because it is all about our business loss.

Please if there is anyone else from omega who can help me.!!

@György-FarkasI think you didn't get my problem, I am facing it with both ttyS1..
you have write everything in against of what i written.

I have already mentioned that we have checked my connection a lots of time, first of all we are organization not an individual, so i have checked it at various level i am getting data other than ttyS1 but not through ttyS1 of omega2, i think you should read my issue once again...

In Omega2, firmware version: latest firmware as of now 18-May-2018,
While trying to read data from either ttyS1 or ttyS0 at the baud rate speed of 115200, using python programming language.

UART Buffer is not containing data, while from another end it ensures data is being written every second.

Verified each connection multiple times, even if I use to read data directly from input source other than omega I am able to read, but through omega, it is showing blank UART buffer of both ttyS1 ttyS0. also checked with pyserial--> serial.inWaiting() it is also giving 0 always.

Please help me we have ordered in bulk for our organization from onion of omega2.

1. remove network Omega-xyz from your network list on mac
2. then turn off and then turn on your wifi..
   Check it should come into your wifi list on mac osx, if not follow steps below:

• Click on Join other network...
• Enter Network name: Omega-XXXX (4-digit of omega Mac address written on label) it is case
  sensitive.
• Choose security as WPA2....
• Enter password whatever you keep as you changed default would be 12345678

Note: a static ip of omega will be auto assigned 192.168.3.1 with Ap omega-WXYZ(last 4-digit of omega MAC)

i haven't found such error can you share exact code, with junk data for your privacy

First check device id and bus-id you are using during the initialization of spi (i.e. onionSpi.OnionSpi(1, 32766)
SPI is done through an adapter usually found at /dev/spidevX.Y where X is the device number and Y is the bus number, so in my case 1 is bus id and 32766 is device id

you can find your details under : /dev/ folder of your omega where file spidev would tell details for you as in above line or at below official ref.

Use Ref: https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/spi-python-module.html

hope you have resolved, if still any issue please revert here...

Thanks

how to write on RTC using i2c in omega2, i am unable to find RTC address
Confused in :
RTC Device Address
Register Address where to read/write

These all i want to do on Omega2 using python-pyonionI2C through i2c bus....

Using Python (pyOnionI2C): I am unable to communicate with I2c bus each and every time it returns:

• on write it returns status as None

• On Read it returns 0xff whether i am using any devAddr, addr

I have omega2, python-light, RTC chip plugged into i2c, pyOnionI2C.

using Shell script i am getting the same issue as below:

below issue found(same) when i run python code available on github for i2c as an example.

#I2C #OMEGA2
