Update

Update SPL Sense on Linux: automatically or manually.

Automatically

On Linux, SPL Sense updates itself like on the other platforms: when a new version is available, Update available appears on the overview. Stop the measurement and click Update and Update and restart. See Installation and updates.

This works if SPL Sense is set up as described in the installation.

Manually

If the automatic update fails, update via the command line. Connect to the Raspberry Pi as in the installation. The general notes apply here too.

1. Stop SPL Sense

sudo service splsense stop

2. Download and unpack the new version

32 bit:

wget https://r.spl.swiss/dl/splsense/linux-arm -O splsense-latest.tar.gz
tar xfvz splsense-latest.tar.gz
rm splsense-latest.tar.gz

64 bit:

wget https://r.spl.swiss/dl/splsense/linux-arm64 -O splsense-latest.tar.gz
tar xfvz splsense-latest.tar.gz
rm splsense-latest.tar.gz

3. Replace the old version

sudo rm -rf /usr/local/splsense
sudo mv splsense /usr/local
sudo chown splsense /usr/local/splsense -R
sudo chgrp splsense /usr/local/splsense -R

The measurement data is in /opt/splsense-data and is kept.

4. Start and restart

sudo service splsense start
sudo reboot
