Is it possible to access Homey Pro 2019's micro-USB port as a serial port?

Hi,

I was just wondering: Homey Pro 2019 has a micro-USB port at the bottom. To be able to control my EasyWave window coverings, I’ve purchased an Eldat USB transceiver. Physically, I would be able to connect the transceiver to Homey, using a micro-USB-2-USB adapter. However, will I be able to access it on Homey as a serial port using JavaScript? If so, that would greatly simplify developing a device/driver for EasyWave.

Best regards,
Patrick.

No, that USB port is just an USB port, not an OTG USB port.

Hm, too bad.

Thanks for the quick response.

Actually it is an USB-OTG port but from Homey you will not be able to access the device.

That’s even worse! :joy:

Agree - I have a forever Purple rotating light on my Homey Pro 2019.
Searches tell me to contact Homey, but it’s most likely not worth the money to send it to Homey for a fix.
I’ve been searching for an USB solution… Any luck?
