[SOLVED] OH3 Z-Wave Serial Controller offline (RaZberry)

Hey

how can I change both items?
In the config itselfe I´m not able to set th “*”
so I use sudo nano /boot/config.txt
and add:
dtoverlay=miniuart-bt
enable_uart=1

now I have the “*” at 2 (RPi3/4) move Bluetooth to mini UART

but how do I get the 2nd “*” for 1 (RPi) Disable serial console
because the console is still enabled

THX

ok my fault, had a typing error.
I have the “*” for both lines now, but bridge is still offline

I took a look at: dmesg -T grep tty
and there the console for ttyAMA0 is still enabled:

what to do now?

I had a different experience with a Pi 4, manual openhabian 3 install, and a ZooZ ZST10 700 series S2 stick. The tips here were very helpful, but didn’t quite match what I was seeing.

After setting the two configuration options, above, getty stopped “stealing” ttyAMA0, but the controller still wouldn’t work. The Z-wave binding debug logs showed all transactions timing out.

After digging around a little into USB devices, I found they create dmesg entries when they are plugged in. I unplugged it, rebooted, then plugged it in again, resulting in this:

[  213.215071] usb 1-1.3: new full-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd
[  213.352161] usb 1-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=10c4, idProduct=ea60, bcdDevice= 1.00

[  213.455863] usb 1-1.3: cp210x converter now attached to ttyUSB0

The tty is USB0, not AMA0. I set that on the Thing configuration and everything was fine.

That last line had shown up in the dmesg | grep tty result, but without knowing what cp210x is from the previous lines, it wasn’t helpful.

Update: The instructions that came with it are wrong: “The device will display as /dev/ttyACMxx where xx…” It was the ACMxx vs AMA0 difference that started me down the right path.

At this time, most 700-series controllers are not supported by the Z-Wave binding in openHAB (for a number of reasons discussed in other threads). There’s been some very recent success with the Razberry 7 Pro), but that’s the only one I’m aware of.

So if you got it to work, you might be the first one to do so. And if you haven’t gotten it to work, I wouldn’t expect that to be the case.

Note that 700-series devices will work (e.g. switches and sensors). The issue is only with controllers.

That might explain things. It “works” in the sense that it comes online and the motion sensor is detected. It doesn’t work in the sense that the motion sensor has no channels. I saw comments that sometimes it takes “a few days”, so I’m currently waiting. The sensor shows “online” in openhab and is blinking green, so I was hoping for the best. While I wait, I’ll order another (older) controller.
