Hello,
I had to reinstall Raspbian. I want to restore my backup file (ZAB). Before I've done it in UI expert there was my devices (without names and details but there was 20 devices). I didn't restore Z-Wave network -> there was no devices. Reboot didn't help. So I try with Z-Wave network -> even worst. Can I do something with it or not?

before restore there was info about Version 3.0.1 now:

Hello,

I have the same problem: https://forum.z-wave.me/viewtopic.php?f=3420&t=32943

Unfortunately still without solution. All backups are making the Z-way UI go astray. After each try I have to reinstall Raspbian.

The hints in the UI about the possible causes unfortunately do not apply, the controller is connected and recognizes the devices before the restore.

I've try to factory reset but...


so how can I uninstall z-way?

You have to check the RaZberry port configuration. Is it /dev/ttyAMA0 ? Are you using RaZberry?

Thanks PoltoS, I figured it out on my own yesterday and here is a more a more detailed description:

As so often it is trivial. The problem is the UI port of the controller. The serial port of the controller has to be adjusted under Applications/Active Apps. For the GPIO Z-Wave controller it is /dev/ttyAMA0. For the USB stick /dev//dev/ttyACM0

I found some hints here: https://forum.z-wave.me/viewtopic.php?t=24707

Dear friends of zwave.me: you should urgently work on the documentation and the support, so that Z-Wave finally gets out of the handicraft corner. I assume that the majority of users have already invested a lot of money in this solution and can therefore expect more professionalism.

yes, I'm using RaZberry. I had it like it should be:


and still not working

Any hints?

Please provide logs. Are you sure BT was disabled by the install script. If it is a Pi4, the script might not be correct for some models. What is your Pi?

I disable bluetooth using this steps:

1. Open /boot/config.txt file.

sudo nano /boot/config.txt

2. Add below, save and close the file.

# Disable Bluetooth
dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt

3. Disable related services.

sudo systemctl disable hciuart.service
sudo systemctl disable bluealsa.service
sudo systemctl disable bluetooth.service

4. Reboot to apply the changes

sudo reboot

not working. Which log do I have to put it here? Where can I find them? I need to be a progammer to use Razberry?!

How I wrote before:

Before I've done it (restore) in UI expert there was my devices (without names and details but there was 20 devices)

and there was also all apps, after restore - nothing is working.
