So over the weekend I was able to set up a Aeotec Z-Wave USB stick server on a Raspberry Pi using the instructions at https://community.home-assistant.io/t/rpi-as-z-wave-zigbee-over-ip-server-for-hass/23006. It was a piece of cake getting it installed and running under systemd. Now I have to set up a client and attach it to my running home-assistant.
TBD.
This is a blog mostly about techie things, what I am doing to my apartment network on the cheap, IOT, 3D Printing, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, ESP32, ESP8266, Home Automation, Personal Weather Stations, Things That Go Bump in the Night, and some side issues that need discussing. Remember, sometimes the journey to an end is as much fun as the goal achieved!
