I'm new with Domoticz and on this forum. I'm trying to get a monitor system working on a yacht and encounter some difficulties.
History:
I had an initial setup but that setup eventually completely froze-up after installing the ZigbeeDomoticz plugin so I concluded it was time for a restart and reconfigured Raspberry and domoticz again from scratch. As this system is 'clean' I decided to start with the Zigbee installation to prevent any other disturbing/conflicting code (you never know).
Situation:
first
I installed the newest image on a 4b Raspberry, performed an update and next installed a fresh an up-to-date Domoticz install including all the phyton updates and so on.
I followed the instructions according this webpage on the official Domoticz website. https://wiki.domoticz.com/Raspberry_Pi
As part of the additional actions I also completed the 'Persistent USB Devices' guide to install the Sonoff Zibee 3.0 USB dongle Plus dongle.
[reading the topic 'sonoff dongle -P vs -E?' elswhere on this forum I concluded that despite the info provided in the ZigbeeDomoticz wiki the chipset should be SiliconLabs based an not TexasInstrments, This is info for later]
So far no issues.
second
I Installed the Domoticz Plugins Manager (https://github.com/stas-demydiuk/domoti ... ns-manager) as that would help me on my third task installing the ZigbeeDomoticz plugin. This was a bit challancing thanks to the changed github authorisation process that forced me to install GH on the Raspberry first and aquired generating a authorisation key.
But it all succeeded and so far no issues
third
I followed the wiki zigbeefordomoticz. step 1 'Plug Installation' instruction and with the PluginsManager that is a piece of cake as the plugin is listed so just a view clicks and it's installed.
I hope ?!

fourth
Step 2 'Plugin Settings' I was able to install/activate the ZigbeePlugin in Domoticz via Domoticz>Setup>Hardware and once I added the hardware it showed in the list and I received the popup message that the hardware was installed and decices should be visible in Domoticz>Setup>Devices........and....... that is not the case: they don't show in the devices list.
PROBLEM
Despite trying various options in the hardware configuration (ie different Coordinator model, see remark under first) the devices will not be created.
note: as for authenticaion (APIbase URL) there is none as being off-line on a yacht there is not much risk for external access. it;s a local LAN without contious internet access.
What went wrong? Who can guide me in the right direction?
Any suggestion and guidance is welcome.
Thanks Jan-Willem
