I now have a temp monitoring script running so i can keep an eye on Pi's temp in degrees F:

#! /bin/bash

printf "%-15s%5s\n" "TIMESTAMP" "TEMP(F)"
printf "%20s\n" "------------------"

while true
do
	tempC=$(sudo vcgencmd measure_temp | egrep -o '[0-9]*\.[0-9]*')
	tempF=$(echo "scale=2; 1.8 *$tempC + 32" | bc)	
	timestamp=$(date +'%s')
	printf "%-15s%5s\n" "$timestamp" "$tempF"
	sleep 1
done

To use this you will need to run:

sudo apt-get install bc

first to install bc.

When run, you be asked to enter your tipi users password and it will display a timestamp and current temp in degrees F.

This is saved as /usr/bin/tempmon so that it can be run simply by entering tempmon at the prompt.

Someone just asked how to tell what CRUBASE your TIPI is at if you can't observe the board visually..  

 

CALL TIPI  (to run TIPICFG)  will display the CRUBASE somewhere in the first two lines of the screen.

For the recent Raspi generation, heat sinks are recommended. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XJQ2X8Y/

Be sure to update the bootloader on the Pi 4. There are fixes for power and heat management on both the SoC and the USB 3 controller. Get package rpi-eeprom, then run sudo rpi-eeprom-update.

The latest raspian buster image I based the TIPI image on, will do this for you on boot.

Thanks to Greg, I was able to successfully set up my newly-received tipi-peb.  The 'first' thing I wanted to test was the Horizon CFG tipi detection code ;)   (And of course, I loaded the program from the TIPI hehe)

That looks like it has no idea, so it falls back on listing the first DSR device name.

Not 100% sure what you mean by 'falls back on listing the first DSR device name'.  The CFG program looks for specific (and where possible, unique) device names/subprograms associated with various peripheral cards then based on what it finds, displays a simple description.     Any device name displayed here is purely coincidental.  I added TIPI detection to the program back in 2017 with the hope of a TIPI PEB card some day.  That day finally arrived.

Oh, I had no idea. Assumed you were just testing old software.

Hey again...this is a little off-topic, but, I tried to run Stuart's webbrowser program and got this:

In dm2k what is the file type

I'm over in Troutdale...won't be back to my "TIPI  Home" until 12-26.  I will check when I get home
Likely you copied v9t9 files over and they need to be tifiles, you can convert them with the web interface

So...it IS possible to have a Disk system AND the TIPI running at the same time! ?  Cool..

 

I have a "side-car" disk-controller, and, would like to run it WITH TIPI HOOKED UP TOO.  Is that possible?

The floppy controllers run at crubase >1100. So if your TIPI is set to this crubase, you will need to use the jumper block to change it.

I've poked around a bit on the TIPI wiki and this forum and haven't been able to find a way to stop TIPI from intercepting DSK4.  Is there a configuration switch I need to set somewhere?  Thanks
Nope it will always grab it so I'd move the cru up past disk systems if you want them to be first

I'd need to update the PI software to allow it to be unmapped.
