To enable Z-Wave, plug your Z-Wave USB stick into your Raspberry Pi 3 and add the following to your `configuration.yaml`:

```yaml
zwave:
  usb_path: /dev/ttyACM0
```

### RAZBERRY BOARD

If you need GPIO on Raspberry Pi 3 for your Z-Wave module, add the following line into `config.txt` (you have to access that on the SD card directly; simply plug it into your PC and edit it there):

```
dtoverlay=pi3-miniuart-bt
```

After that, you need to change `usb_path` to `/dev/ttyAMA0` in your `configuration.yaml`.

```yaml
zwave:
  usb_path: /dev/ttyAMA0
```

### HUSBZB-1

```yaml
zwave:
  usb_path: /dev/ttyUSB0

zha:
  usb_path: /dev/ttyUSB1
  database_path: /config/zigbee.db
```
