This is a port for Yasdi 1.7.2 on OpenWrt Kamikaze 7.09.

• Source: libyasdi.tgz.
• Package: libyasdi_1.7.2-1_mipsel.ipk.zip

The package was tested on an ASUS WL-500g Deluxe, with 2 Sunny Boy 1700 inverters connected over RS-485 to tx1/rx1. GPIO1 is used to switch the direction of the RS-485 tranceiver, since the router does not implement the RTS and DTR lines.

The source package contains a README explaining how to compile it.

The ipk package installs:

• the libraries to /usr/lib
• yasdishell to /usr/bin
• yasdi.ini to /etc
• a symbolic link from /etc/devices to /tmp

It can be tested using /usr/bin/yasdishell /etc/yasdi.ini

These are the same packages, but for Yasdi 1.8.0 and OpenWrt Kamikaze 8.09rc2:

• Source: libyasdi_1.8.0.tgz.
• Package: libyasdi_1.8.0-11_mipsel.ipk.zip

This is a first try to port libftp to OpenWrt Kamikaze 7.09.

• Source: libftplib.tgz

The package builds and can be installed on the device, but it does not run at the moment. There seems to be a problem with the getservbyname function. It would have to be patched.

Another option would be to switch to the curl library, which already has a working OpenWrt package, supports ftp append (very usefull for storing logs!) and other protocols as http put, scp, …

This is a first try to port Solar-Logger to OpenWrt Kamikaze 7.09.

• Source: solar-logger-openwrt.tgz

The package builds and can be installed on the device. I tried with Solar-Logger 0.3.0, but it exits immediately when started. Probably went out of memory.

If the inverter(s) are equiped with RS-485 ports, you will have to add an RS485 port to the hardware running OpenWrt. This can be done

• using USB (e.g. COMi)
• from an RS-232 port (e.g. K3)
• from the serial ports that are available internally. For an an ASUS WL-500g Deluxe, this could be connected to the connectors J1 and J5 inside like this:
