Velleman K8090 USB relay card support

[chris.garcia]

Hi all,

The Vellman K8090 USB relay card is delivered with a DLL that allows to control it under windows.
As I use a linux system I developped a driver that can control the card. I used C++

2 projects :
- K8090lib = a library that can send orders to the card (K8090lib.so)
- K8090cmd = a commandline utility that uses the library to control the card

As I recently discovered Domoticz (and fell back in front of what I dreamed of for years ;o) I would like to give you my work if you are interested
I thought I could include it myself but I am not sure about how I could include my files in the make process

I would be proud if I could contribute a little bit to this VERY nice project.
Let me know ...

Cheers
Christophe

Hi Albert

I am very happy with the Vellman K8090 card
Note that it needs an external power supply to activate the 8 power relays

Regarding the C++ development I did to control it = I will be happy to provide it to you
I need to package it correctly ;o)
I will let you know when it will be ready. I will probably put it on Sourceforge

Cheers

Hi Chris,

I just got my raspberry pi 2b and velleman relay board.
I have downloaded Your code from sourceforge, but as i'm new on linux didn't understand how to use it (I also read Readme file)
Can You please explain, how to correctly use Your provided files.
