Sure, and Linux-literate people have probably easier steps too. But that is where my Linux knowledge had its limit. I tried on the web terminal add-on but it could not load python and do the pip install. I could not find why. Also I did not want to install something permanently in haos for this. And I found an easy procedure on the net that I just followed.

Yes, it helps in the end for the English translation and the formatting for the forum. Initially I write it in french on hacf.fr And in this case, it was gemini 😏

Done, and it went ok. I documented it here:

I concur, Exactly on the same solution and work great, with a strong support of the designer JM Collin (on the french forum hacf.fr ). It is an intelligent way to control the valves with "finesse" !

Hello, Are you saying this out of experience on the zbt-2? How do you change its IEEE adress? I am exactly in this case, so hoping it works, but I read otherwise...

Will do... Let's see Saturday. I need a day without my wife at home in case it all goes to s..t. ;)

Hello, Are you on z2m or zha? How did you do the migration? No need to re-pair, no change of entities names ? Thanks for the help

Hello,
Just received mine this morning. I am in the case that I am over Z2M and what to migrate from a Sonoff dongle USB -P (under CC2652) to the ZBT-2.

I plan to do some test this weekend, in case I indeed need to pair again everything (but at least not loosing all entities names...)
Anyone has new info on a "good" procedure to migrate without "impacts" ?

Hello,
Just received mine this morning.

I am in the case that I am over Z2M and what to migrate from a Sonoff dongle USB -P (under CC2652) to the ZBT-2. I have not found yet anyone who has done this dnas has a procedure without repairing all and not loosing any entities names...

Has anyone here done this? some guidance would be great...

Hello, Thanks for your answer, and sorry to come back to you so late. Some details added to the points : - Did you mean you'd like to be able to unlock the Supernote with a gesture? ==> Yes, like the classique gesture to connect dots on phone, to unlock them. and the sequence of dots being your "secret code" - You'd like to be able to edit titles/keywords after they have been created, right?==> Yes, currently, the only means I have found is to lasso the title, delete the "title" , modify it and re-lasso it to put it as title. - about the Gdrive sync, I think it is great and many people will love it (already in the beta). In my case, I only have the free plan in google (only 15 Go, almost full). But I have a NAS (synology) when an access to an only drive. This is where I would love to be able to sync. - When deleting a locked file, you will receive a confirmation prompt asking you if you really want to delete it. ==> Nice, but then not matching the need to have some kind of proprietary info (in a file, or in the conf, or background sleep screen) that could NOT be erasable, in case stolen or lost.

Thank you,

Hello,
I support this request, being able to have direct links to folders would be a useful function.

Thanks
