Hi, I bought an zigbee dongle on ali, this one:
And I have installed HA on my raspberry pi.
Followed the instuctions for installing ZHA, and i stopped at the point where u need to check the hardware. Under hardware the only thing that shows up under serial is:
serial:
/dev/ttyAMA0
Tried using that port on install ZHA but it failed.
Anyone that can help me please
Did you flash it with zigbee2mqtt firmware ?
Sorry Francis but does this mean that zigbee under HA == MQTT ???
No, it means the CC2531 only works with ZHA (and zigbee2mqtt) if the standard firmware is replaced with the firmware from the zigbee2mqtt project.
So how do i flash it? That link shows some other usb dongle and not my incase one.
Also do i need all that stuff they showed in that post to get going?
If it has a case or not makes no difference. If you don’t have a cc-debugger, you can use one of these methods :
