Zeus
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
.. note:: This is not the same as connecting Zeus directly to your lightning node - using LNbits allows us to allocate a specific amount of funds to Zeus instead of giving it full access to your lightning node. We can also use LNbits to permit Zeus to **just receive** satoshis, or the ability to both **receive and spend** satoshis.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: This guide assumes you have already setup LNbits as per :ref:`this guide <connecting-lnbits>` with **LND** as your underlying node.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: **This will not work with CLN as your underlying node!**
|
|
|
|
#. Zeus requires that we use the LnbHub extension in order to connect to LNbits.
|
|
|
|
#. To do this, click **Manage Extensions**:

#. Click **MANAGE** under the LndHub extension:

#. Click the two arrows on the right, then click install:

|
#. Now ensure that it says **Activated** underneath LndHub and then click **Extensions** on the left:

#. Install `Zeus <https://zeusln.app/>`_.
|
|
|
|
#. Open it up and click **SCAN NODE CONFIG**.

#. *If you only want this wallet to be able to RECEIVE PAYMENTS, scan this QR code:*

|
*If you are happy for this wallet to be able to both receive and MAKE payments scan this QR code:*
|
|

.. figure:: /_static/images/services/lnbits/right-qr.png
|
|
:width: 40%

|
|
|
|
#. Once scanned, name the wallet if you wish, then hit **SAVE NODE CONFIG**.

#. Zeus will now connect to your node and you'll see this screen:

|
|
|
|
.. tip:: If it doesn't work, please manually restart the Zeus app.
|
|
|
|
#. In addition to allocating sats to this wallet via the LNbits Superuser Account (see "Funding LNbits section" :ref:`here<connecting-lnbits>`), you can also receive funds the normal way by hitting **Request** within Zeus.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
.. note:: This will only work if your node has inbound liquidity. And you cannot send sats from the LND node LNbits is using as that is not a regular lightning payment - that is a reblanace.
|
|
|
|
#. Once you have added sats, you can click on this button within Zeus and see your new balance:
|

Congratulations! Zeus is set up and ready to use lightning via your own lightning node - furthermore it will only be able to use your node in the way you allow it, via LNbits.
