allow Conbee zigbee USB stick in start.sh #52

Open micma42 opened 3 years ago

micma42 commented 3 years ago

Hi, when the start.sh script tries to find a USB dongle for zigbee, it checks the vendor ID of Texas Instruments (0451). I have a Conbee II stick, which is build by Dresden Electronik and has a different vendor ID (1cf1). Replacing 0451 by 1cf1 for the initial run of the script worked fine for me. Could you add the Dresden Electronik ID to the check in start.sh? Thanks!

I might have a similar problem, but I'm using a Raspbee II. The hardware is (presumably) being found:

$ ls -l /dev/serial0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Feb  8 22:23 /dev/serial0 -> ttyAMA0

Using the deCONZ app, it is shown and detected as a coordinator.

Following the hints about adding to the configuration.yaml (see https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/information/supported_adapters.html) did not solve the problem either:

serial: adapter: deconz port: /dev/ttyAMA0

The above hint about replacing the vendor ID does not lead to detection of the RaspBee II either and the container for zigbee2mqtt does not start.

I assume that this is not the best place to ask for help, but at the moment it's the only one I can find.

First thank you for the hint about how to pass the adapter detection!

I ran into the same problem when I first tried to start the amart home system with my new conbee stick. The problem in my case was that I connected already to the stick using the deconz software when I tried to get my smart home to work.
