any ideas?

So what path did you specify and is the device visible there?

5

Where can I find the path?

Post your z2m config here

7 
data_path: /config/zigbee2mqtt
socat:
  enabled: false
  master: pty,raw,echo=0,link=/tmp/ttyZ2M,mode=777
  slave: tcp-listen:8485,keepalive,nodelay,reuseaddr,keepidle=1,keepintvl=1,keepcnt=5
  options: "-d -d"
  log: false
mqtt: {}
serial:
  adapter: ezsp

You are missing path to your usb coordinator. Here is my conbee2 as example:

serial:
  port: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-QEMU_QEMU_USB_SERIAL_1-0000:00:07.7-4-if00-port0
  adapter: deconz

i Just found this. is this the path?

10

Yes your path would be /dev/serial/by-id/usb-ITEAD_SONOFF…

Thank you so much. it is now working!
