Hello, thanx, i see there is nothing GPIO related in 8.2, grep -i gpio /usr/src/sys/ yields nothing. Also, i was looking for an actual relay that could drive this simple wireless transmitter : http://www.visonic.com/Products/Wireless-Property-Protection/Universal-transmitter-mct-100 http://www.visonic.com/Data/Uploads/MCT_100_Installer_Guide_English_DE2241U.pdf (installation manual) So what i wanna do is simple, sent some command to a relay which will open a normally closed or close a normally open circuit in the above transmitter, and trigger an alarm. > Cheers, > Luiz -- Achilleas Mantzios _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
