Lacrosse intergration using rfc2217

Configuration
1

Hi,

I am running currently Home assistant operating system as Hyper-V container on Windows10. I am trying to integrate some Lacrosse sensors. Therefore a Rpi with a JeeLink is running. I configured ser2net and the service is responsive using:

pylacrosse -d rfc2217://serverpi:20001 scan
id=11 t=21.100000 h=45 nbat=0 name=unknown
id=11 t=21.100000 h=45 nbat=0 name=unknown

I configured the service like this:

  - platform: lacrosse
    device: rfc2217://serverpi:20001
    baud: 57600
    sensors:
      unkown:
        name: Kitchen Humidity
        type: humidity
        id: 11

However, I can see in the logs that there is a connection problem:

2021-10-28 15:34:33 WARNING (SyncWorker_3) [homeassistant.components.lacrosse.sensor] Unable to open serial port: Could not open port rfc2217://serverpi:20001: [Errno -3] Try again

Is there an error in the configuration? I am fairly new to HA, so any advice is appreciated.

Thanks!
Flo

Did you ever get this to work? I am trying to do the same with Home Assistant OS (where I don’t even know how to install ser2net)

Hi,

finally I just plugged the JeeLink connector directly into the RP4 where HA is running on. Everything is working fine now.

Cheers,
