Defective RaZberry?

Post by Equinox »

Hi,

I have a new Raspi 2 and a new RaZberry (Z-Wave plus).
After installation, the communication with the RaZberry does not work.
Error in log-file:

Code: Select all

[2016-04-30 23:19:56.450] [I] [core] Notification: critical (z-wave): Cannot start Z-Wave binding: Error: Bad data - communication failed
After powering up the Raspi, the LEDs of the RaZberry blink once and then go off (and stay off). Shouldn't the red LED be on (at least it is like that with my old RaZberry (without "plus")).
My questions:
1. Any idea how to solve that problem?
2. How can I check whether the RaZberry is OK?
3. How can I check whether the Raspi's GPIO is OK?

Many thanks!

Hi,

in the meantime, I found out that the RaZberry is OK. So, it must be a faulty installation or defective GPIO-pins of the Raspberry.
How can I ceck whether the Raspi's GPIO is working correctly?

Thanks.

@Equinox

connect TX to RX and use minicom to see if you see everything you are sending
