Home Assistant RaspBee Onboard Installation

Hi,

I am new to Home Assistant and have bought myself a kit containing a Raspberry Pi 3B+ and a RaspBee Onboard card. I am having trouble getting Hass.io to recognize the onboard card.

Here are the steps I have taken:

Install Hass.io

Added to config.txt:
enable_uart=1
dtoverlay=pi3-miniuart-bt
BLANK SPACE (As suggested by Marthoc)

Mount RaspBee (While RPi was turned off)

Tried to add deCONZ integration, failing with error message “No deCONZ bridges discovered”

Am I missing a vital step here or is my RaspBee DOA?

Have you installed the deconz gateway add-on?

No, I have not. Is there a guide for this? I tried installing using dresden electronics own guide, but failed at the point where a command I was supposed to use did not exist in the Hass.io installation.

I tried following that guide, added the github link to the addon page. But I get prompted with a red text saying “The addon is not available on your system”. Sorry if I am missing something obvious here, brand new to hass.io

Ok, then it might be a 3B+ issue. Create an issue with marathon and see what he says. Im neither using 3B+ or hassio.

Thanks for the tip, I will do that.

So you’ve gone to Hass.io - Add-On Store, and added my repo. Then scrolled to the bottom, found my repo, clicked on deCONZ, and then clicked Install? There no reason why it shouldn’t be available on your system.

I removed the repository and tried to re-add it. Then I was met with this error message in the log and no card shows up:

I might do a full re-installation if there is not an easy fix.

I have now done a complete reinstall and the problem persists. Please advice.

Solved by adding the root repository of Marthoc instead of the addon specific link. Goes to show how the small things matter when you don’t are doing something new :smiley:

Hi ensoe,

Looks like I have the same configuration as you (RPI3b+ and Rasbpee).
What do you mean with “the root repository of Marthoc” ?
What exactly did you do to solve your issue ?

Thanks in advance.

The repo you should be adding is “https://github.com/marthoc/hassio-addons”

Aaaaah I see, yes I did that but still problems

Will continue my investigation/findings in : https://github.com/marthoc/hassio-addons/issues/78

i just installed the module and added the deconz add on

are there more to it than this?

added to config.txt:

enable_uart=1
dtoverlay=pi3-miniuart-bt

what next?

Did you get it working ?
