Can´t get Z-wave to work in HA

Post by Segge »

Hi, first time posting here and first time building a smart home.
I need help to add my z-wave devices in Home Assistant. For some reason I can´t find anything.
I´m running HA from ESXi and using an supported USB dongle, passthrough works fine, Z-wave JS installs and find my dongle and it start blinking when I press "add device" from Home Assistant. My Qubino relays should just need power for the Auto-Inclusion process, I´ve tried connecting a switch to start it manually.
Am I missing something or what?

Check that the frequency matches. Also try to remove (exclude) your devices prior to adding them.

Frequency should match, USB dongle is ZMEEUZB1, EU @ 868 MHz. My Qubino is 868,42 MHz.
I´ve tried everything on the Qubino, release, factory reset, auto and manual inclusion but all I get is time out in HA. I´ve really focused on the Qubino as my USB dongle connects "by the book" in HA and start blinking when I press "add device", but now I think it´s something with either HA or the dongle. License for the dongle, it´s just for Z-way or do I need a license to be able to use it no matter what?

For HA you don't need the license, it is for Z-Way. Please try to exclude the device first - will it work?
