readmeter

if you install the readmeter script below in the pi users's bin directorey you can simply call

readmeter

Install desktop

If you'd like to have the desktop configuration for the raspberry that you configured using the Volkzsähler image you can install the desktop with:

sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-ui-mods -y
sudo raspi-config # activate desktop via menu

Test USB S0 reader

readmeter

Prerequsite

you need to install bc for the readmeter script to work

apt-get install bc

readmeter bash script
