RasPi relay action

This shows my RasPi connect via i2c to 2 mcp23017 controllers and each 23017 connects to two 8 channel relay banks.

Notes:
Power to the Pi is normal 5v DC 1000mA micro-b USB connection. Power the the relay is an external 5v DC 1000mA with a 12v DC input. To make the relays function I needed to connect a ground output from the Pi to the 2nd power source.

Raspberry Pi

I have been "playing" with a couple of Raspberry Pi's for the last month, which I am learning some Debian interaction, ssh, Python coding, and raspi's GPIO.
Some of my projects are:
Timelapse camera w/ webserver.
External relay control for lights and music or home automation.
And some ideas on a solar tracker and robot.

Access to the SYSTEM registry hive. (Access hard drive from other computer, use offline registry editor). Open SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\LSA "Authentication Packages" If the key Type is not REG_MULTI_SZ, then delete it. Create new key, as Mutlti-String Value. Name the key "Authentication Packages" with a value of "msv1_0" (without quotes). Several antispyware and antivirus remove that key and recreate it wrong. This is required to log in. I have done this several times to my customers computers, and it always works for me.
