## Installing deCONZ
7+
1) Plug in you ConBee II, ConBee or Raspbee (if no device is plugged in, deCONZ will not be properly installed)
8+
2) Add deCONZ to your stack using `cd ~/IOTstack && bash ./menu.sh`and select deCONZ
9+
3) Edit the deconz service.yml using `sudo nano ~/IOTstack/services/deconz/service.yml` - activate your device by removing the "#" in front of "devices" and the "#" in front of your specific device. Save the changes using "ctrl+x", "y" and "enter".
10+
4) Build the stack again using `cd ~/IOTstack && bash ./menu.sh` to apply the changes and select "Do not overwrite".
11+
5) Run `docker-compose up -d` to build the deCONZ container.

## Viewing the deCONZ Zigbee mesh
20+
The Zigbee mesh can be viewed using VNC (port 5901). The default VNC password is "changeme".
21+
22+
## Connecting deCONZ and Node-RED
23+
1) Install [node-red-contrib-deconz](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-deconz) via the manage palette menu (if not already pre-installed with Node-RED)
24+
2) Open a deCONZ in node, select "Add new deconz-server" and type in the IP-address of your IOTstack pc (Rpi) and type in port 8090 (not websocket port)
25+
3) Open deCONZ (http://ip.address.of.your.IOTstack.pc.here:8090/) and open settings>gateway>advanced. Click "Authenticate app".
26+
4) Go back to your Node-RED instance and click the magick:get setting button in the server node. The API and websocket port will be automatically inserted. Click "Add" and you are good to go.
