Hi,
I’m trying to get my (new) Meteostick to work with OpenHab but it stays at status UNKNOWN.
The stick itself seems to we working fine:
The stick is discovered as ttyUSB2
[44857.721941] usb 1-1.1: new full-speed USB device number 6 using xhci_hcd
[44857.868265] usb 1-1.1: New USB device found, idVendor=0403, idProduct=6001, bcdDevice= 6.00

I’m able to communicate with the stick through minicom:

but this is all I got from OpenHab:

Looking at the code it seems to get stuck somewhere between line 160 and 172: (“Serial port is initialized” at line 172 never shows up in the logs)
Are there any known issues with firmware 2.5.5? (does anybody know where to download older firmwares?)

Please let me know if there is anything else I can try
