check Posted January 11 Posted January 11 I'm trying to get to the point where I can read time from the DS3231 RTC module on a Raspberry Pi 4. From what I understand, I first need to activate i2c bus, then load the kernel module that would work with the clock itself. So far i2cdetect tool fails to detect anything. There are no i2c-* devices in /dev either. I've read about "Hardware" option in armbian-config, but it's not showing up in the menu. I've also read that it's a matter of adding a device tree overlay. Does that apply for RPI4? The folder structure in /boot seems different from what documentation and several threads describe for other boards. What would be the steps for activating i2c bus on RPI4? 0 Quote
c0rnelius Posted January 12 Posted January 12 Is there a config.txt? https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/configuration.html#part5.5 dtparam=i2c_arm=on If for some reason it still doesn't load sudo modprobe i2c-dev and add i2c-dev to /etc/modules. 0 Quote
