Hi there,

Trying to get rflink working on a RP4+4gb. Have the same setup on a Brix (kind of a NUC), without any problems, but now, can’t get it to work.

In logfiles it shows:

Logger: homeassistant.components.websocket_api.http.connection.2962889792

I’m running it on Raspbian Buster with Supervisor in docker (like my brix too). Tried also a original image for Pi4, but got same message/problem.

You did select the correct serial port ?

Yeah, But i think its the arduino(rflink) which is the problem. I have another RFlink which works perfectly (i just tried it). The L led is blinking on the other rf link. So i think i’ll contact the webshop with this problem.

This topic may be closed now.

Omg. I now remember that i had to flash the arduino first i think. I saw something about R48 firmware. Jeez, i spent hours last night to fix this, but i couldn’t.

Pffff… i need a holiday i think.

Yes, flashing is indeed required :slight_smile:

Yeah. Flashed, and working perfectly now. Thanks for rubberducking!
