Hello Brain Trust!
I am hoping someone can help here.
So it’s kind of a long story but I will see if I can sum it up easily and make it make sense.
Back in Sept when my mother moved in with me (long story) I had to move my Rasp Pi, well at that time I decided to make a virtual machine in windows and that worked fine. Then I assume an update happened and 1 of my 3 Neo NAS-PD02Z by Shenzhen Neo Electronics Co., Ltd. (Amazon purchase) stopped reporting correctly. Excluded it, assumed it was a fluke, and included it again. Still wasn’t reporting right.
Gave it some time, thought maybe it was an update issue or a distance issue. Mom moved out, moved the Pi back to it’s original home and restored my last good config. Again, the other 2 worked fine, the 3rd did not.
Upgraded again and again hoping to get it to work again, it doesn’t even come up as a recognized device. Comes up not ready, if I fight with it enough I can get it come up, but it doesn’t report anything correctly. Rolled the server back to 1.53, same thing. Ran it on that thinking maybe the sensor was bad, and added a new Zwave device yesterday, worked fine, reported fine etc. Upgraded Core today (and zwave went to 1.54) and now the new one from yesterday is coming up unknown and not ready. Got a new PIR sensor today (same as I was using same as the 2 good ones), same thing as well.
All of this time, the other 2 have worked with no issues at all, so something has changed and there is a legacy of some kind is my guess, but how do I add the new devices? Or do I need to break down and start buying different stuff?
I am sure there will be questions about my story since it’s dating back to September of last year, and I will do my best to recall any details you might need, but I am stumped and if I am going to have to return devices I need to do it soon so I can get the credit and get new ones.
Thank you for your help everyone!!
