I can't use zigbee2mqtt DSGW-210

Your HA gateway can support zigbee2mqtt add-on, but I have encountered error when I try to add it in.

Please make sure that you are setting the correct port: dev/ttyUSB1, also make sure your repository is GitHub - Zengzisheng/hassio-zigbee2mqtt-1: Official Zigbee2MQTT Home Assistant add-on and try it again.

I am having the same issue. When I start I get an error saying No such file or directory, cannot open /dev/ttyUSB1.

When I list the serial devices I only see one:

admin@Zigbee2MQTT:/opt/zigbee2mqtt$ ls -l /dev/serial/by-id
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Dec 12 23:33 usb-1a86_USB_Serial-if00-port0 -> ../../ttyUSB0

I think this is the USB port on the back of the machine, but I would have expected a second USB device for the coordinator as well. Should it not appear here? Or I need to configure it in a different way?

My hardware is a DSGW-210-F18 HA.

It seems you are not operating on HA?
Or you should config like this.

I did not even finish the installation of HA. I don’t want to use HA.

DSGW-210-F-18 doesn’t have bluetooth module
you can try to use /dev/ttyUSB0 as the zigbee serial port.

I am not planning to use Bluetooth, but Zigbee.
I tried /dev/ttyUSB0 as well, but it does not work either:

admin@Zigbee2MQTT:~$ cd /opt/zigbee2mqtt
admin@Zigbee2MQTT:/opt/zigbee2mqtt$ npm start

I used user admin to set up MQTT and Zigbee2MQTT, I added admin user to the group to access serial port. Therefore I don’t think this is an access issue.

try to add the following to your configuration.yaml

serial:
  adapter: ezsp

@Dusun_Yan Thanks a lot. It is working now.

For those who join to this later, this is the configuration.yaml I ended up using:

homeassistant: false
permit_join: true
mqtt:
  base_topic: zigbee2mqtt
  server: mqtt://localhost
  user: YOUR_MQTT_USERID
  password: YOUR_MQTT_PASSWORD
serial:
  port: /dev/ttyUSB0
  adapter: ezsp
frontend:
  port: 8085
advanced:
  homeassistant_legacy_entity_attributes: false
  legacy_api: false
  legacy_availability_payload: false
device_options:
  legacy: false

As mentioned above the /dev/ttyUSB0 is the port, and adapter:ezsp was required as wel. I added the frontend section, so I can access the Zigbee2MQTT webGUI for management.

EDIT: I made a small change to the configuration.yaml. I read that it is better to configure USB devices by ID instead of ttyUSB0, or ttyUSB1. It looks like for Dusun, it is /dev/serial/by-id/usb-1a86_USB_Serial-if00-port0. I replaced that and it is working as well.
And also I set permit_join: false, not to allow devices to join the network automatically.
