Z-NET Integration with HA

Configuration Z-Wave
104

What OS version are you running on the Z-Net? Did you keep your original SD card (as suggested) and if so, does it still work?

If you run the command:
ls -la /dev/ttyA*

What are the results?

On my Z-Net running Debian 11 the z-wave controller is /dev/ttyAMA0
On my Z-Net running Raspian 8 (the shipped OS) the z-wave controller is /dev/ttyACM0

That maps the host device ttyAMA0 to zwave for docker, so in the docker container only /dev/zwave will work as ttyAMA0 doesn’t exist (Not passed to docker by that name).

Quite possible. Are you confident it’s disabled?

This:

znet@ZNet:~ $ ls -la /dev/ttyA*
crw–w---- 1 root tty 204, 64 Sep 9 08:43 /dev/ttyAMA0

This:
znet@ZNet:~ $ cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME=“Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)”
NAME=“Raspbian GNU/Linux”
VERSION_ID=“11”
VERSION=“11 (bullseye)”

ID=raspbian

Concerning BT, I no longer have the BT symbol in the header of the desktop(was next to WiFi symbol)?

I’m not using an original ZNET.

Ah, sorry didn’t get that point. What is your z-wave controller then? HAT device or USB?

What is the raspberry pi? If it’s not a 3b it may have different commands for disabling Bluetooth.

Did you try reverting to the old configuration/SD card?

Good news
It seems zwave-js-ui is happy now after doing the following as suggested at ZAC93 800 GPIO Module Installation Guide - Zooz Support Center

“Run to remove all pieces of bluetooth from the OS and give you back the hardware serial uart.”

sudo systemctl disable hciuart
sudo systemctl disable [email protected]
sudo systemctl mask [email protected]
sudo apt purge bluez bluez-firmware wpasupplicant
sudo apt-get autoremove

Then reboot

Thank you @mterry63 for your assistance.
