Hi -
(I figured out the problem half way through writing this post - skip to finish line if you are facing the sme issue)
I’m new to this forum and new to Home Automation.
I am trying to setup the latest version of HA in a Docker container on a Synology NAS DS923+ running Disk Station Manager.
My system:
Model: DS923+
OS Version: DSM 7.2.2-72806 Update 3
CPU: AMD Ryzen R1600
Package Architecture: R1000
I bought the HA Connect ZBT-1 (NC-ZBT-9710) here:
I have read the guide here on the HA website under installation / alternative.
Since I need to expose the USB Dongle to the Docker container, I need to know the path to the USB stick.
But it looks like the USB stick is not recognized by DSM.
Not much in dmesg when I plug in the ZBT-1:
Command lsusb shows the device, but does not give me the path to the device.
Nothing new or change in /dev/ after plugging in the ZBT-1.
At this point I figured I probably didnt have the right drivers, I have followed this guide but get the same result with the drivers installation.
What I didnt do is READ THE READ ME !
It clearly says:
If you use a CLI tool like wget or curl to download the files, you also need the “raw” URL:
So instead ot running the wget command with the ‘/tree/’ in the URL, I had to replace it with ‘/raw/’. This is just how github works.
Afterwards I followed the rest of the guide and the dirvers installed properly.
I rebooted my Synology and can now see the path to the device in /dev/ and in dmseg.
Et voilà.
On to the next steps.
