In Home assistant menu on the bottom there are a number of developer tools. Select the one for services.
Select service hassio.addon_stdio and
paste the code, and change device ID to a corresponding ID in your Tellstick addon settings that you wish to learn.
Lycka till!
@hegr you learn the devices from homeassistant using a service call.
The configuration is aligned with the settings available for tellstick.conf that is well documented.
Some parameters are mandatory for specific type of devices and if you follow the tellstick conf doc and then enter the parameters in json format in the tellstick add-on settings you should be ok.

For some reason I can’t get my tellstick duo to work anymore. It started when I upgraded to 0.60 but now I can’t get it to work on a fresh installation either…?
Anyone seen this before? Here’s the log:
Error during setup of component tellstick

Did you enter host and port in hass configuration.yaml?
yes I did
like this
tellstick:
host: core-tellstick
port: [50800, 50801]
Anything in the tellstick add-on logs?
nothing unusual, the tellstick daemon starts and the tellstick hardware is detected with serial and so on, seems to be something with the hass config because I get a warning in the status page that the tellstick and sensaors.tellstick couldnt be loaded, however I have just the host and port in the config…?
I’m experiencing exactly the same as @Mattie
Lost my tellstick switches when I updated to 0.60, no config change done
anyone with a working tellsticksetup on hassio 0.60?
Mine works just fine. Recently added 4 wallswitches and 2 socket relays
Works fine here too.
Check that you have the latest version of the add-on (0.4) don’t forget to copy out the add-on settings if you reinstall or update the add-on .
In my configuration.yaml I have the tellstick settings with host and port set up.
It is important with the indentation on the parameters.
tellstick:
host: core-tellstick
port: [50800, 50801]
as well as the switch settings in configuration.yaml:
switch:
- platform: tellstick
Also make sure to restart hass after changing Tellstick addon settings.
Note, I have had issues with tellstick when doing restart home assistant via hass.io menu. Two things has worked for me:
a) Make a reboot via hass.io, advanced settings Host OS.
Or… quicker:
b) Go to configuration in the left menu, select General. Scroll down to server management and push restart.
Everything is working fine. Does anyone know if it’s possible to set a default starting value for a dimmer? I want to start the light with only approximately 30% of the full strength. I’m using the Nexa CRF-2027 light bulb.
I am on Home Assistant v0.60 and TellStick and TellStick Duo service v0.4.
Everything works fine.
This is my configuration.
configuration.yaml:
tellstick:
host: core-tellstick
port: [50800, 50801]
signal_repetitions: 3
Tellstick config (in TellStick and TellStick Duo service):

I followed the tips I got from @endor (in this thread), and that made everything work 
Hi,
Great work making this work.
Now, two other questions.
I need to scan the codes sent out by a Nexa Wall Transmitter WTE-2 to enter them as devices in the config and use the WTE-2 to control some functions. Any idea how to scan for codes as you can do with a normal linux installation with rawdeviceevent?
To add new sensors i need to manually enter the ID, datamask 127 has never solved it for me. So, same question as 1, is there a way to scan for sensors in hassio?
Br, T
T
Can you do this with tdtool, then it might be possible with a service call in hass. Otherwise you can check raw output of events using SSH add-on and run nc core-tellstick 50801 …give it a try to see if you can see your wall switch event.
Use a service call as described in the tellstick add-on documentation, use function list or list-sensors then check your add on log for results…
They produce a bit different results so you might try both to see what gives you the data you need.
Hi!
2a. Still quite sure that the, at least for me, the list-sensors service call only gives me the already configured sensors. By configured I mean the IDs that I have named manually in configuration.yaml. I tought that sensors should appear automatically when datatype_mask: 127 is configured but this never worked for me… However, now I can use the “nc core-tellstick 50801” to find the ID so Im happy!
2b. Good idea on the windows computer.
Big thanks!

I struggle to get my tellstick to work with me. I’m stuck since there is so little configuration to be done.
Running Home Assistant 0.60.0 and Tellstick 0.4 on a new install on a PI-3.
I get “Invalid config tellstick” Please check your config. on start.
Tellstick service is running fine as it seems, here’s the log:
starting version 3.2.4
[Info] Initialize the tellstick configuration
[Info] Exposing sockets and loading service
[Info] Starting event listener
telldusd daemon starting up
Connecting to TellStick (1781/C30) with serial A6003xxx

I have tried different settings in the tellstick config but no change.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I hade a problem with my USB-kable after a change that my tellstick duo works fine.
