Velleman K8090 USB relay card support

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
Christophe

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.
