This folder contains all the necessary files to enable and configure X728 power management on a Raspberry Pi. The setup includes systemd service files, logic for power detection, safe shutdown, and integration with Signal K.
| File | Location | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| x728_power_management.py | /usr/local/bin/ |
Main logic for power loss, battery status, and shutdowns. |
| x728-pwr.service | /etc/systemd/system/ |
systemd service to start power logic on boot. |
| x728-shutdown.service | /etc/systemd/system/ |
systemd service for handling shutdowns. |
| xSoft.sh (optional) | /usr/local/bin/ |
Safe shutdown script (optional but useful). |
If you ever want to re-enable the X728 logic, follow these steps.
Run the following commands to copy files where they need to go:
sudo cp x728_power_management.py /usr/local/bin/
sudo cp x728-pwr.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo cp x728-shutdown.service /etc/systemd/system/
# If xSoft.sh is included
if [ -f xSoft.sh ]; then
sudo cp xSoft.sh /usr/local/bin/
