Why do you have to reinstall these drivers after each reboot???

[jhulstedt]

What I had to do to get over this problem. I used these commands on my raspberry pi.
from https://www.computerhope.com/unix/modprobe.htm#examples

Watchout for the `` grave accent marks around the uname -r command! Can't display it correctly here because that is also the code delimiter on this website.
You will have to know where your "xr_usb_serial_common.ko" file is: Mine was,
~/projects/epsolar-tracer/xr_usb_serial_common-1a/xr_usb_serial_common.ko

Then you will use the module name which should be "xr_usb_serial_common" in the modprobe command. Do not use "xr_usb_serial_common.ko"!

This made my /dev/ttyXRUSB0 persistent across the boots and sessions.

I also edited /etc/modules file adding to the last line of that file "xr_usb_serial_common". Not sure if I have to do that or not. The "modprobe" command may have added that? But if not add it so that the module gets loaded at boot.

I wrote and installed a service file to do everything and made sure the service runs before any other Epever related services.

[jimlynnjulian]

[Unit]
Description=Epever Exar driver install Service
After=multi-user.target hwclock.service

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/bin/bash /home/pi/epdriver.sh

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

[jimlynnjulian]

Run this after writing the bash script that follows, "epdriver.sh"
Both the bash script and the driver module are in /home/pi
The service is in /lib/systemd/system

sudo systemctl enable epdriver.service
sudo systemctl start epdriver.service

[jimlynnjulian]

#!/bin/bash
sudo rmmod cdc-acm
sudo modprobe -r cdc-acm
sudo insmod /home/pi/xr_usb_serial_common.ko
