Hey!
Only installed HA last week, so fairly new to it. I purchased some Zigbee buttons and the Sonoff dongle but I'm having a lot of issues trying to install it.
So my current setup is:
Windows 10
VmWare Workstation 17.6
HA with various integrations
VM specs are -
4GB ram
4x Processor cores - Intel i5 2.9ghz
32GB HDD
VM hardware -
Network adapter - Bridged
USB controller - Present
Sound Card - Auto detect
Serial port - Using port COM1
Display - Auto detect
So thats all of the basics out of the way I believe, down to the problem.
I have plugged the Sonoff dongle in, installed the recommended drivers (CH343SER, CP210).
It now shows in device manager under "PORTS (COM & LPT)" and shows as "USB-Enhanced-SERIAL CH9102 (COM1)"
From what I understand, it should show in Device Manager, as something different and should show under USB after installing the serial to USB driver (CP210).
When opening HA, it doesn't show as detected for auto setup.
When attempting to install ZHA, the auto detect of serial device path is - /dev/ttyS0 - ttyS0 but this doesn't connect.
When going through manually selecting, i then select EZSP, and I've tried, /dev/ttyS0, 1, 2, 3. All of which fail to connect.
I'm really struggling with this, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
