ShutdownMonitor

This software installs a possibility to perform a clean shutdown of the Venus OS via the menu system.

Usage

dbus

The ShutdownMonitor runs as a service and creates a dbus service with a single parameter: /Shutdown. Setting /Shutdown to 1 will trigger a clean OS shutdown.

Menu

A shutdown submenu is added to the Settings / General menu. A submenu is used to alert the user that a power cycle is needed to restart the GX device.

Note: A Cerbo GX restarts itself after a shutdown so this addition may not be useful in all situations.

Raspberry GPIO

For Raspberry PI platforms, pulling GPIO #16 (pin 36 on the pin header) low for 2 seconds will also trigger a shutdown if enabled in the Shutdown menu. This requires RpiGpioSetup with Version v3.4 or later to activate the GPIO pin.

Installation

ShutdownMonitor requires that SetupHelper is installed first.

The easiest way to install ShutdownMonitor is to do a "blind install" of SetupHelper and then add the ShutdownMonitor package via the PackageManager menus.

Refer to the SetupHelper ReadMe for instructions and for other install options: https://github.com/kwindrem/SetupHelper
