Hi, I installed your plugin on my RPi. Unfortunately the plugin does not find my eq-3 Thermostat. When executing homebridge the command line shows:

EQ - 3 Discovering devices...
EQ - 3 Found 0 devices.

Connecting with Bluetooth on raspberry pi worked.

How can I get it to work, that the plugin discovers the thermostat?

I have the same issue. But when installing it together with the homebridge-eq3ble plugin (https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-eq3ble), it correctly detects my thermostat.

Try install it: sudo apt-get install bluetooth bluez libbluetooth-dev libudev-dev libcap2-bin

And after that run this command: sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f `which node`)
