Hello,
Sorry the question might be so trivial, but I could not make it work, and I am not getting any errors, so couldn't fix the issue.
I have a python3 script located at **/home/pi/Zigbee\_v1.py**. The script gets data from Zigbee device, when I run the script itself I get data without any problems. I believe in **Node-RED** , I should be able to do this by using **exec node** without any problems. I am able to run an example non-continuous python script without any issues.
How exactly I should configure the **exec node** so I can achieve what I want?
The continuous generated data example if needed: `From 0013A200411111E >> 23.00`

This would be more suited to the node-red-node-daemon node. And don’t forget to add -u to the python call to ensure it is unbuffered

@dceejay Thank you so much. The **daemon node** works without any issues.
