Problems migrating from Conbee II to Conbee III in a KVM under Proxmox as Docker

deCONZ Setup Support

Hello everyone,

I have the problem that after replacing the Conbee II stick with a Conbee III, it is only recognized as Conbee or Conbee II:

PhosconApp:

deConz:

I did the migration according to the instructions from ConBee III Installation.

I can control everything via Phoscon and iobroker, but the stick is not recognized correctly, see http://ix.io/4Mtf and the screenshots above.

My configuration and logs from Proxmox are attached in http://ix.io/4Mta

My KVM configuration and logs are attached in http://ix.io/4Mt9

My Docker Compose is also attached in http://ix.io/4Mtd

Output from GCFFlasher in http://ix.io/4Mte

At first everything works, except for the integration in iobroker, but I cannot flash the latest firmware and the Conbee is definitely recognized incorrectly.

Can someone help me here, what am I doing wrong or what have I forgotten?

Best regards

Unfortunately I don’t have a solution but I have the exact same problem.
My ConBee 3 is shown just like yours in both Deconz and Phoscon.

It would be nice if someone could provide the exact steps to get this to work properly in docker…

This probably is just a visual issue. Your device is a Conbee 3. Whatever the software says is wrong.

Hi @Mimiix

thx for your answere.

For the time being I can live with the “display problem”, I would like to update the firmware with the GCC_flasher again in the future and it does not recognize the Conbee stick either.

Will the problem be fixed?

Many thanks and best regards

That is one for @de_employees to answer :sweat_smile:

Hi
I actually see the same issue here… migrated from Conbee II to Conbee III and got same issue after solving the other ones :wink:

Actually I use Proxmox LXC container forward the “/dev/serial/by-id/usb-dresden_elektronik_ConBee_III_DE03220056-if00-port0” device to the container, but also tried the /dev/ttyUSB0 (which results in raspbee detected in UI). I also started with a new and empty LXC container.

The only issue for me is the GCFFlasher lists a Conbee_II instead of a Conbee_III

GCFFlasher_internal -l
Path | Serial | Type
------------------±------------±--------------
/dev/ttyUSB0 | _DE03220056 | ConBee_II

So there are two “display problems”

  • UI is showing Conbee
  • Flasher is showing Conbee II

The reality is a connected Conbee II… perhaps there is a different setup/config problem, but it would be great if you can point me to an correct and complete instructions/how to to setup Conbee III in LXC or VM under Proxmox?

Thanks in advance…
