Preconditions

  1. As mentioned in the 2.-Home-Assistant-Docker-Image topic, you need to configure the tty device here as a bare minimum.

  2. Some controllers like razberry 2 require you to use the secure mode, you will need to configure the Network-Key

Adding devices / managing devices

To manage your devices, you need openzwave-control-panel, which the hass docker image . But do not get crazy, i created an docker-image for that

Just the same again, login on your pi:

git clone https://github.com/EugenMayer/docker-image-openzwave-panel
cd docker-image-openzwave-panel
docker-compose up -d

If you need to, be sure to adjust the devices section in the docker-compose.yml to your needs, its configured for a razberry.

Be sure to shutdown the container when you are finished, since hass needs exclusive access to the tty device.
