Re: Options to combine two networks

I would probably go with names as the ID could be different different controllers but the same name. Some may hate this suggestion. Take what is on the Z-Way instance and create them as-is to the "master" unit. In my setup, I can only think of one instance where the same room would be list...

Re: Options to combine two networks

When web sockets are used in a future release, it will reduce traffic on the LAN side. I noticed less than 1Mbps increase in traffic when I enabled that app at the 1,000ms (1 second).

Re: Integration with Home Assistant

This is most excellent news indeed. I was going to try to do the OpenLuup route. I was planning on doing the integration when the Gen 7 board was available. With this news, I'll be buying the Gen 7 boards when they are available and then do the HA integration at the same time. I haven't added many d...

Re: arm64 arch support

You can use the board with almost any home automation software that supports the Raspberry Pi/OS. Home Assistant use use the Razberry board.

Re: Unstable communication with a razberry2 (blue card) and pi4.

I have been able to use the Razberry board with PI 4B's. There is probably an issue in your /boot/config.text file that was preventing it from working.

I have this in mine:
