🆕[add-on] HassOS Serial Configurator

Installation Home Assistant OS
6

Hi Coolie,
I had a few issues getting this going too, but managed to figure it out in the end.

  1. Install the HassOS Serial Configurator
  2. Disable Protection Mode. This was the fix for me, as I couldn’t get it to work without doing this.
  3. Start HassOS Serial Configurator
  4. Monitor the HassOS Serial Configurator logs. You should hope to see something like this.

  5. Pull the power cable out of your DeskPi, or hold the power button for >3 seconds ie. hard power off
  6. Power on DeskPi
  7. Once HassIO has restarted, install DeskPi Pro Active Cooling
  8. Within DeskPi Pro Active Cooling, click on Configuration and configure your options. The Serial Device should be as shown.

  9. Save your config and start the service.
  10. Check the logs for DeskPi Pro Active Cooling. It should now show you your temp readings.
