Z-Wave Installation Issue with Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5

Archive HASSbian

Hello, I am just getting into Home Assistant and have successfully installed Hassbian. After installation I added the Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5 and added the relevant lines to the configuration.yaml as follows

zwave
zwave:
usb_path: /dev/ttyAMA0
network_key: “0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…, 0x…”

group: !include groups.yaml
automation: !include automations.yaml
script: !include scripts.yaml

(hex values replaced by …)

I can see Z-Wave Configuration manager in the Configuration panel, but the Aeotec Z-Stick Get 5 is not showing up in the dashboard. When i see the log in the Z-Wave Manager, it shows a notification saying “Driver failed”

Any ideas what could be the problem?

Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

Depending on your setup the USB path should be /dev/ttyACM0

3

I feel like I’m seeing this issue a lot lately. Did you copy that /dev/AMA0 path from some docs somewhere?

4

Just try ls -l /dev/tty* to see the USB devices

Thanks and lot for the replies and pointing me to the right direction. When i did

ls -l /dev/ttyA*

I found both /dev/ttyACM0 and /dev/ttyAMA0 paths. Now i realize the copied the wrong path. Thanks a ton again.
