2. enable i2c for home assistant.

Add files to enable I2C

In the root of the hassos-boot partition, add a new folder called CONFIG.
In the CONFIG folder, add another new folder called modules.
Inside the modules folder add a text file called rpi-i2c.conf with the following content:
i2c-dev

In the root of the hassos-boot partition, edit the file called config.txt at last add two lines to it:
dtparam=i2c_arm=on
dtoverlay=i2c1-pi5,pins_2_3

Note: if you using Windows OS computer, you can use "DiskGenius.exe" free software to modify the files. Because Linux format file not visable on windows OS.

2. In the Pi OS configuration graphical interface, enable I2C and serial port, and disable the serial monitor function.

3. By default, the /dev/ttyAMA0 serial port is enabled, but you need to edit the file to enable the /dev/ttyAMA2 serial port.

Run the command:
sudo nano /boot/firmware/config.txt
Add the following lines:

dtoverlay=uart2
dtoverlay=uart3
Save the file and exit.

The serial port mappings are as follows:

Code:
Serial Port    Device File    Physical Pins (Board)    BCM Pins (GPIO)

UART2    /dev/ttyAMA1    Pin 27 (TXD) / 28 (RXD)    GPIO 0 / 1

UART3    /dev/ttyAMA2    Pin 13 (TXD) / 14 (RXD)    GPIO 4 / 5

UART4    /dev/ttyAMA3    Pin 7 (TXD) / 21 (RXD)    GPIO 8 / 9

UART5    /dev/ttyAMA4    Pin 29 (TXD) / 30 (RXD)    GPIO 12 / 13

4. When you first open Node RED and import a Node flow, you will be automatically prompted to install the required plugins. Click "OK" to install all the plugins automatically.
