I just installed it on a Debian 12 thin client, and it shows 3 of your missing sensors as well; these are not missing in the app I guess? ![1000046976](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/9/99af5f75dc0f148e1d1948123c9cb73a6f51dcf6.jpeg) ![1000046980](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/d/1d7aa6cf678ac1f2a5e467059bf009b964b2f77a.jpeg) ![1000046978](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/a/2a197c56c67ec60d1ccf0d51d550a88589512701.jpeg) And thanks, my storage needs some maintenance as it seems 😬 ---

Hello @gruijter Perhaps you could tell us the commands for querying the RPi values ​​via SSH? If I send commands like “top” or “uptime” to my Linux server via SSH, does it work? Are there any differences between Debian and RPi? RPi is also a Debian OS, isn’t it. Have a nice Sunday 🍻 😉 ---

The Homey app for Raspberry Pi does not seem to work for the RPi 5. This is the error message: _ **raspi-gpio is not supported on Pi 5 - use `pinctrl`** _ Is there really no way for Homey Pro to read and set GPIO on a Raspberry Pi 5 without some sort of programming? If that is correct, can you offer any details? ---

I haven’t been able to find any documentation of what I need to do on my Raspberry Pi 4B - other than enable SSH - in order to use the Homey Raspberry Pi app. I have the app communicating with the RPi and reporting things like CPU temperature and memory used. But what do I need to do on the RPi so that Homey can read and write GPIO? And where is this documented? Thanks. ---

If this is the link you are suggesting: > [@Gruijter](#): > > ## Control from Homey > > Shutdown or reboot the system, update the OS, and control the outputs of the [GPIO](https://embeddedcomputing.com/technology/processing/interface-io/quick-start-raspberry-pi-gpio-terminal-interface). it makes no mention of the Homey Raspberry Pi app by Robin de Gruijter. Apparently I need to add programing or configuration (in addition to enabling SSH) to my RPi so that the app can set and clear GPIO pins. But what do I need to do? Or - what am I asking that isn’t making sense? ---

Besides having SSH enabled, no config is needed except for I/O. But you need to know what you are doing to use outputs, that is why I didn’t explicitly provide instructions for that. But here is what you need to do for every pin you want to use as output: **raspi-gpio set X op** Where X is the pin number. ---

Thank you. I have been trying this with a non-default username, and am in the process of going back to pi as a username. My hostname is still raspberrypi. Thank you for the extra information. Once this is working on one device, I intend to have a total of six that Homey needs to communicate with – so I assume I’ll need different host names on each. Is this going to work? John Rex ---

Ow, didnt know that. Will drive into that when I have spare time. I guess/hope there is a replacement under Trixie to do gpio stuff from the command line.
