has anyone sucessfully setup any smart switch(non-neutral_ with smart led?

#

ive been trying to research on this

#

most vendor i spoke to kept discouraging me on this but not able to tell me exactly why its discourage

@fair mountain Did you update HA for that or did the problem resolve by itself?

#

My update notifications are gone, too. But when I trigger a manual firmware check, I get "Device didn't respond to OTA request" for all devices.

#

As far as I can see, the firmware versions are the same as last week.

Hi people ! Merry Xmax !
Quick question : Is it possible to use a Zigbee HAT installed on a Pi4 as a ZigbeeOverEthernet device ? (Zigbee module = CC2538 from Cod.m)
I am currently using Z2M directly on the Pi4, but I would like to switch everything to ZHA directly on my NUC where HA is running.
Thanks !

zigbee devices (usually powered ones) will act as a router

#

I've been having general weirdness, with some lights not responding the last week or two. Haven't changed any hardware, just HA updates. Before I go chasing the issue, I wanted to check in if there are any known issues with ZigBee lately.

#

Am I being special? Sonoff zigbee 3.0 usb dongle is giving me agg. When I go to configure it, it asks me if I want to manually upload a backup, or delete network settings and create new network. I don't have a manual backup as it's new, and erasing the network throws up an error

#

Any ideas on what I can do to fix my network? I just added 30 or so inovelli blue switches. I'm at 150 devices on network, running 122022 zstack firmware. 139 routers. Everything was running great until adding the Inovelli Blues. Now everything is very sluggish and I'm getting a bunch of warnings regarding "No network route (205)". Am I at the point where my network table is too full and that I need to split into two networks?

#

Also having devices drop off the network

Hi, I reflashed my CC2652P with a different OS (Raspbian) and, after several attempts, it worked.

#

Now I have to repair all my devices - interesting enough that zigbee2mqtt now shows OTAs for alle the Tradfri bulbs. My E1812 button got updated as well.

#

How do I have to bind the E1812 to receive actions in Homeassistant?

#

(or button events like click and release

Hi @mellow geode it's me again. One question:
I've got an Zigbee Tuya RGB Controller, but my Stripe is RBG instead. So Colors are wrong when using the Color Picker. Is it possible to somehow remap color order?

Pretty sure that’s not possible. Couldn’t you just physically swap the G and B wires?

Hi, I got a device that lost contact (an Aqara/LUMI weather), and I removed it from the list. Now I am trying to add it again, but it never gets discovered. Any tips?

#

what would be the best way to increase the range of zigbee network?

lilac wharf
#

Get devices that act as zigbee routers (most mains-powered zigbee devices)

#

Exceptions include Sengled lights and most no-neutral switches

turbid ledge
#

Just had an idea pop in my head, thought to share it …
And see if it could be possible

The Philips Hue Bridge is basically is Zigbee hub that connects to a wifi network and basically has a zigbee controller firmware built in

Is it possible to create a firmware for the Philips Hue Bridge to make it function as a Zigbee repeater ? Instead of a controller?

sterile sleet
#

while it has a radio for it, the hue bridge does not connect via wifi.
there are also no custom firmwares out there

raven jewel
#

And as cheap as Zigbee devices are, I doubt it's worth people making one to be honest!

I'm sitting with a fresh install of HA, and are trying to integrate my Conbee II stick (latest firmware from September) - I've had it "connected" using deConz, but it couldn't find any of my Sonoff units
Now I've tried using the normal ZHA route, but when I've it from the menu (/dev/ttyACM0 - ConBee II, s/n: DE2292596 - dresden elektronik ingenieurtechnik Gmbh), it works for a bit, then I select Radio Type "deCONZ = dresden elektronik deCONZ protocol: ConBee I/II, RaspBee I/II" and then have to enter the "serial port setting", where "/dev/ttyACM0" is prefilled but it won't accept it.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

What kind of machine are you running? Raspberry Pi?

Unplug it and re plug it it. Conbees get in a weird state sometimes

Sorry for the late responses - my discord isn't making any sounds :S

#

Its a Pi 4 - I've just restarted it and are gonna retry it

raven jewel
#

Make sure your power supply is sufficient

#

And that the Conbee is on an extension cable to avoid interference

long quiver
#

PSU should be sufficient, trying an extension

#

Extension cable for the dongle did nothing, switching up the PSU

#

It's the same - Failed to Connect - dmesg gives me nothing useful, is there any other logs I can check?

#

Ehh, it "passed" after dis-/reconnecting a lot of time, then after choosing to "erase and start a new network" the logs now gives me this:

Should I still install deConz?

raven jewel
#

Wild guess, but it might be that your Conbee is dying, they're not great Zigbee dongles anyway

long quiver
#

Feck! It's practically new, been sitting in my drawer for like ½ a year though 😛 What Dongle should one go with then?

#

I've got a Sonoff ZB Bridge with an old Tasmota version on it and a CC2531 stick lying around, could they perhaps be used?

raven jewel

The pins have recommendations. I have the Sonoff plus stick.

@raven jewel Thank you for your help and suggestions, sounds like I'm going to have to continue with it tomorrow 🙂 Gotta go to bed, the kids are bound to wake up early tomorrow and It's my turn to get up with them, so the GF can sleep in 🙂

Hello, I bought this https://moeshouse.com/products/1-4-gang-tuya-zigbee-wireless-12-scene-switch-mechanical-push-button-controller-battery-powered-smart-home-automation-scenario-switch-for-tuya-smart-devices and I successfully integrated in Z2M, but in my HA I can see only a binary_sensor Action and when I click onmy taster i can see that value of that sensor is changing to single_1, single_2, etc.
My question is: can I add something in the config file of moes switch on the side in Z2M to have presented switches in HA?
or I need to write automation for listening mqtt event?

raven jewel
#

It must be a sensor, not a binary sensor to be displaying those values.

#

And you could use #templates-archived to make a binary sensor for each action but that seems rather unnecessary.

hybrid laurel
#

do i need to link the zigbee device before i install them or i should install them in the final location then link up from home assistant

sour shadow
#

Pair (link) them in their final location

#

If you do anything else you risk them not working

hybrid laurel
sour shadow
#

WTF...

#

That'd be just as bad

hybrid laurel
#

it should auto detect as long as they r in range

#

lol

sour shadow
#

It's a mesh network

hybrid laurel
#

ok sorry

#

i heard some weird instruction from a friend

sour shadow
#

They're an idiot

hybrid laurel
#

just wanna confirm

sour shadow
#

I can confirm, they're an idiot

hybrid laurel
#

dunno why they say must link from near to far

#

its damn weird

sour shadow
#

Well, that's how you set up the router devices

#

You leave your host with the Zigbee stick where it is, don't move it

#

Then you pair the nearest router device, then the next nearest, and so on

#

Moving slowly "out" from the server

hybrid laurel
#

oh

#

understand

sour shadow
#

Once done you pair all the end devices (sensors)

hybrid laurel
#

do router first then do end devices

#

i guess that wat they meant

#

thanks!

# fair mountain What problem?

First there were these update notifications, which are now gone (without performing any updates). Then I couldn't check for new updates anymore getting the "Device didn't respond to OTA request" message.

What are the best zigbee bulbs? Looking for floods and normal, rgb and white, routers, and can be updated using zha? I have a theory my fleet of sengled crash and turn on randomly but I can’t update them and they aren’t routers.

Hi. I have ikea shortcut button and ikea wireless plug. Is it possible to make them work together without having any zigbee network/coordinator in the house? I want to setup remote light using this in my parents house but they don't have any home automation system

raven jewel
#

You can bind them directly to one another, press and hold the reset button inside the shortcut button near the plug until the light on the plug flashes a few times

stable dew
raven jewel
#

Not usually. If you do, then you'll need a paperclip to stick into the end. But I've not previously needed to do that

stable dew
#

alright lets try it

#

it kinna works except I need to press the button 20 times and sometimes it reacts and sometimes not

#

ok I think I get it

Double click = off
single click= on

Anyone use the slaesh stick? I've tried updating and I keep getting a timeout error

I remember my friend once tried to flash it and did something wrong and bricked it

I upgraded the firmware on it once and I'm not touching it now unnecessarily

It's still serial flashable if you flash a version with the wrong bootloader

bronze apex
#

So how do I go about fixing it? I feel like I've maybe used the wrong firmware?

#

So how do I go about fixing this?

Hi everyone. I got a Aquara pet feeder yesterday and had no problem pairing it and interviewing it in ZHA, but I'm not able to dispense food with it from homeassistant, and after a few hours is shows up as offline on ZHA. Any reason it could be doing that? Its plugged into mains power so it shouldn't be a battery issue

#

When I visualize topology, I see the feeder there, but not connected to anything

unborn orbit
#

Looks like it is due to the new inovelli blue switches causing issues with my network

nova torrent
#

0x885F: Update device availability - device available: False - new availability: False - changed: False
Device 0x885f (54:ef:44:10:00:45:8b:65) left the network

#

Well this is what the logs say

#

Is this thing leaving the network as soon as it joins it?

#

Welp. Unjoining it and rejoining doesn't help

austere patio
#

There was a bad batch of switches with defective radios, you should be able to tell based on their IEEE address.

unborn orbit
austere patio
#

What issues are you referring to?

unborn orbit
#

network essentially doesn't work

#

everything times out

#

SRSP, No network route, time out > 10000

#

i've replaced coordinators with same issue

#

tried a few zstack firmwares as well, same outcome

#

i think the switches are just flooding the network with data

#

I'm trying to add switches back slowly and will likely try two networks to see if that improves things

#

also making sure energy reports are turned off

austere patio
#

What other routers are on your network?

#

Hi. I've been using Sonoff ZB Bridge with tasmota firmware as my coordinator with zigbee2mqtt for almost a year. All well until the 1.28.0 update. Starting from 1.28 I had mixed results. Since I had a zzh! cc2652r sitting somewhere in my drawer, today I decided to give it a go this time with ZHA integration. Now, since I run HA on proxmox I had to do all the magic with USB IDs and such. Done. When installing the ZHA integration in HA, I choose manual (if set to auto it sets the coordinator at /dev/ttyUSB0 which is not always true after vm restart, so I wanted to use the longer: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-1a86_USB_Serial-if00-port0) but then I get the next screen with port speed setting and data flow control (https://itpasja.pl/ext/zzh.png) and the question is: what is the speed for zzh! and what is that mysterious third data flow control option that has no name?

unborn orbit
austere patio
#

And how many of these Inovelli switches?

unborn orbit
unborn orbit
austere patio
#

Hmm. It could be that Z2M's default reporting interval for these devices is flooding the network with continuous traffic. What is the reporting config for these bulbs and the Inovelli switches?

unborn orbit
austere patio
#

Z2M should let you set up reporting for each device.

unborn orbit
#

Power was the only thing I saw and I bumped that out as much as possible

devout sundial
#

Hey guys, is it possible to migrate from zha to z2mqtt without having to repair all devices? After six months of no issues half my ikea remotes stopped working and also refuse to appear in pairing

#

I have almost 100 devices, I’d rather throw everything out that set them all up again

#

I mean a couple paired after 20 retries right next to the coordinator

raven jewel
#

Are you using a Conbee by any chance?

devout sundial
#

Yes

#

Conbee II

#

@raven jewel please don’t leave me hanging, I have a very angry wife over my head

strange ibex
#

lol

raven jewel
#

Well first of all it's boxing day, so I am watching a film with my family.

#

Secondly, did you check the pins? Conbee are incredibly susceptible to interference so you really must use a USB extension cable with it

devout sundial
#

I have it on a 3 meter extension. The whole set up was working flawlessly for almost 8 months. Now that you mention interference I have a coral usb but it is running 2 floors away from the conbee

#

Would replacing the conbee solve the interference issues?

lusty trench
#

Hi which dongle to buy -e or -p? What’s the main difference ?

devout sundial
#

It seems -e is the newer version

raven jewel
#

E is experimental

devout sundial
#

If I replace conbee with a sonoff will I need to set up everything again?

raven jewel
#

More or less, it's a different chipset, so not fully supported except with ZHA

#

Oh I just read back. Now I see the context

nova torrent
#

Is there a way to wake up or refresh a specific zigbee device? My aqara pet feeder has shown up as offline for 6hours. Its about 8 from two zigbee devices and about 15 and 20 feet from three others. Its plugged into mains power so I don't know why its not coming online

austere patio
nova torrent
#

@austere patio Yep, done that and also tried swapping it momentarily to battery power to see if that helped and it didn't. It only every really seems to successfully interview and then that's it

austere patio
#

What routing devices do you have?

#

If it can switch to battery power, it probably isn't itself a router

nova torrent
#

Possibly, but it does show up in the ZHA visualization as a router, and I assumed that info came from the device itself since it was plugged into mains power

#

That said in the same room with it about 5' away is a Sonoff S31 plug with another one about 10' away

#

In the adjacent room about 8' away are a pair of Zemismart zigbee blind motors that are also plugged into mains power.

#

They're all showing on ZHA's visualization as routers

#

One notable thing and I wonder if it matters is when it is interviewed, it does seem like the LQI and the RSSI are both unknown

austere patio
#

Can you upload the diagnostic info?

nova torrent
#

Hopefully I got all that correctly from the diagnostics

austere patio
#

Hmm, it is a router

nova torrent
#

Yea, looking at what everyone else has been writing about this feeder and the new integration from the latest release, it seems like everyone has had very little issue with it. Other than seeing no RSSI, and LQI everything appears like it should work. I guess its entirely possible this particular unit is defective, but that would be a little odd of an occurrence but totally possible.

austere patio
#

If you see no LQI and no RSSI, no packets have been received from the device

nova torrent
#

So I guess the question then becomes, how do I force packets to be sent and received then? Like waking up the feeder?

#

Hmm

#

I know I tried manually triggering the feeder in the front, but that didn't wake it up

austere patio
#

It should just happen, there's no way to force packets to be sent other than triggering the device (which is only ever necessary for end-devices that run on batteries). I suspect the Sonoff router may be the problem. Try removing or power cycling it and see what happens.

nova torrent
#

Good idea.

#

Give me a few mins

#

Well I power cycled the four closest zigbee routers and it doesn't seem to have changed anything.

#

I take that back. All the other end devices have better connections

#

haha

hollow chasm
#

Did you move it after pairing to the network? From my understanding Aqara devices associate with 1 router and will never heal if they lose connectivity, so you'd have to re-pair with a closer router to wherever you placed it

nova torrent
#

Nope. Its been in the kitchen every time I've paired it

#

Only one time did I try it somewhere else in the house and it did the same thing. So I did it again in the kitchen

#

The kitchen arguably should be the best spot for it anyway with 4 other routers in within 10 feet of it.

hollow chasm
#

I haven't used ZHA, but at least in Z2M it's possible to allow joining to a specific router, i.e. force it to join via one close by rather than letting it pick one on its own

nova torrent
#

Yea when I started doing zigbee I really struggled wrapping my head around Z2M. I was hoping the Zigbee toolbox in HACS would let me do just that

austere patio
#

Click on the device's info page and you can choose "Add devices via this device" in a dropdown

nova torrent
#

Oh whoa!

#

Let me try that

#

OK so now I'm showing an LQI and an RSSI, but I'm still getting no response when I send it commands, and its still not showing up linked with anything in the visualization

Hello, just received 2 Tuya ZY-M100 presence sensors, and all the data I’ve seen online shows at least partially working with ZHA (just a binary sensor for presence), but when I add it, I don’t even get that. I have no entities for some reason

nova torrent
#

I might try power cycling again and if that doesn't work I'll try add devices through another device

nova torrent
#

Ok I'm once again getting the same issue. Losing connection after the initial interview. Even if I chose another device to add the feeder through. I'm inclined to believe this particular feeder might have something wrong with it.

Hello everyone. Since yesterday I lost signal of a device (lixee_tic). It’s a device I plugged into my electric provider to measure the consumptions of my house. Yes it’s a bit far away from my zigbee coordinator but I added some device between them so the signal can be routed. But it seems it’s not routed. Any advice please ? Here is my zigbee schema : https://photos.app.goo.gl/BAmZkZU5ZjKUzBFm9

It’s only the remotes that have problems, I can operate all the bulbs and look at the sensors from HA just fine

#

Are these IKEA remotes?

devout sundial
#

Yes

#

The bulbs as well

raven jewel
#

IKEA remotes have been known to have an issue where the battery drains very fast when they're not paired to their hubs.

#

@raven jewel i am trying with new batteries. Now i have the same issue with one of my blinds, its 1 meter away from a bulb, im trying to pair it via this bulb, and its just not appearing

#

One thing i notice is that the device discovery in zha is not timing out, is this something new?

raven jewel
#

I don't know. I use Zigbee2MQTT

devout sundial

so back to my question from yesterday, if i move to zigbee2MQTT do i have to re-pair all the devices?

hi

I just bought Conbee II zigbee stick
and tried deconz
and ZHA
I added a Philips hue ceiling light and a Hue Motion Sensor

I had issues with Deconz on my ceiling light
so I switched to ZHA
and it works perfectly as of now
I didn't try Zigbee2MQTT because I heard it has issues with the Conbee 2 stick
however I want to keep my home as up to date as possible, and as far as I know the only zigbee platform that supports Philips Hue OTA updates is Zigbee2MQTT
is it worth moving to Zigbee2MQTT using the conbee ii stick or not ?

#

FWIW, I have zigbee2mqtt with Conbee II. No problems as such, but it is a hassle to set up.

I just received SkyConnect though. Does it support Green Power directly?

Hi, question about ZHA quirks: I see in github that for my TRV (integrated via ZHA) a fix (link: https://github.com/zigpy/zha-device-handlers/pull/1082) has been produced but it's not working for me ... I'm not sure this has been "merged" in HA. How can I check, or is there a place where the zigpy releases and integration in HA is documented or described ?

sweet kayak
#

Hi there, I do also have some question about zha quirks. Is there an option to point specific quirk for device? (i see that my device have few quirks and actual one does not work for it - tuya ts0012)

violet dagger
#

the quirk has to have your device's model and manufacturer id

sweet kayak
#

i have as some people say another f*g tuya variance of double channel switch, and it does not work properly (when activating one switch both are enabled)

austere patio
#

Quirks match based on signature as well. The current quirk will be listed in the device info page, as well as in the diagnostics JSON

sweet kayak
#

i've got it but it seems it takes last quirk that has same model number

austere patio
#

The ENDPOINTS part has to match exactly as well

sweet kayak
#

not sure if exactly but that makes more sense, so i suppose i will need to report a bug?

austere patio
#

If an existing quirk matches, your device is seemingly indistinguishable from another TS001x variant

#

What are its manufacturer and model IDs?

#

And what quirk is currently matching?

sweet kayak
#

_TZ3000_jl7qyupf

#

zhaquirks.tuya.ts001x.Tuya_Double_Var05

#

model: TS0012

violet dagger
#

It is "supported" according to the model id

#

But Tuya decides to change the firmware without changing the ID and then you have this

sweet kayak
#

I know, i love "standards" 🙂

#

I had also saw that i can set switch mode per endpoint (to command or event) i assume if debug logs says attribute not supported it means that this device is unable to handle that settings? :/

#

Anyone have any luck using Tuya ZY-M100 presence sensors with ZHA? Or should I just start over and rebuild my mesh with z2m?

Luck in what? It works with ZHA

Hi, where can I find which zigpy version is used by my HA instalation, is there a way to find this ?

night rain
#

Definitely less functionality than with Z2M. I was contemplating changing around some different sensors and what not, would there still be any good reason for me to switch from ZHA other than the additional settings on the presence sensors? I don’t have any experience with Z2M but I’ve heard it can be a bit tougher to set up

Just curious, what are some zigbee devices you guys have really enjoyed using this past year?

Yeah I have one of those Lux sensors in every room, love them.

I only enjoy wifi devices 😛

#

But I really like Aqara contact sensors

I enjoy anything Tuya ||they bring me hours of entertainment watching people struggle with them||

#

Haven’t gotten around to anything in the tasmota / local Tuya land yet, but I might be ready to give some of that stuff a go

violet dagger
#

But I do enjoy one Zigbee switch I switched to a WiFi module

#

Does that count

night rain
#

Haven’t exactly been thrilled with the newest Tuya integration and having to renew/extend an IOT developer license every 6 months to maintain functionality, so I’m definitely looking for a new way to deal with my Wi-Fi stuff

night rain
sour shadow
#

The problem is that Tuya is an over-arching label applied to a wide range of devices made by many people

#

Some of it is really good, some amazing, and lots are made to a price point

#

If you get the good stuff you're fine, if you get the rest of it ...

night rain
#

I’ve gotten to the point that I’m trying to move most of my stuff over to zigbee

#

But tbh most of my Tuya based stuff has been more reliable than my zigbee stuff

austere patio
#

Is your Zigbee stuff also Tuya?

night rain
#

Which may not be entirely zigbees fault, as I live in a townhouse and there are neighbors close enough to me that their networks could be causing the congestion

austere patio
#

Or Sonoff?

sour shadow
#

Or Osram 😄

night rain
#

Nah, mostly Sengled bulbs and Lowe’s iris sensors

#

Wouldn’t touch an osram bulb again if someone paid me to

austere patio
#

Are any Sengled bulbs routers?

night rain
#

Nah

#

Not the ones I have

#

Oh I have a few ikea plugs and one ikea repeater

#

So a few routers sprinkled around

#

The only Tuya devices are the ZY-M100 presence sensors I just added

#

I have a repeater in the middle of my house, and an ikea plug (router) in every room. I still get at least one or two bulbs a week that will randomly stop working. Their state will still report in HA, but turning them on/off doesn’t do anything until I’ve cut power to the bulb over and over again for like a minute

#

Wi-Fi stuff has been mostly reliable for me, but I just had to get another AP due to the congestion. Hopefully that’ll clear up any issues I’ve had. I think it’s gonna require me to pick a new zigbee channel though, which comes with its own headache

floral plinth
#

I am at wits end, need some help with Zigbee

#

Most of my lights turn on randomly, I am getting all kinds of routing errors, things just don't respond. All Sengled bulbs the ones that turn on randomly, usually at night, start up blue or flash red.

#

I have 138 zigbee devices, migrated to a SONOFF Dongle E from Hubszb.

#

I have like 50 router devices even though the sengled's are just end devices

#

EZSP obvioulsy

austere patio
#

Do you have source routing enabled?

floral plinth
#

Yes

austere patio
#

Try disabling it

floral plinth
#

I thought source routing was basically needed for large meshes

#

zha:
zigpy_config:
source_routing: true
ezsp_config:
CONFIG_SOURCE_ROUTE_TABLE_SIZE: 150
CONFIG_MAX_END_DEVICE_CHILDREN: 0

austere patio
#

50 routers isn't a lot

floral plinth
#

Is there a way to force a recompute?

#

Let me compute

austere patio
#

Just comment out anything related to source routing in your config and see what happens

floral plinth
#

43 routing devices, the coordinator, and 96 light

#

Doing it now

#

I am on a Pi4b with an NVMe drive. CPU and memory never gets high because its 8gb and quad core. The coordinator is on a 3' extension cord plugged into USB 2.0. All of my WiFi is broadcasting on channel 11 with ZHA on channel 15 so there shouldn't be much if any interference.

#

Once I disable source routing how long do you think it will take to fix the mesh?

austere patio
#

It depends on what's broken

#

But routing happens more or less instantly

floral plinth
#

I was on ZHA groups for my bulbs but that with adaptive lighting was killing the network. Constant busy. So I went back to ZHA groups and that went away.

#

Removed all source routing but still getting some of these

night rain
#

Are you able to elaborate on that? I use ZHA and adaptive lighting as well, so I’m curious as to what issues you were having

floral plinth
#

So I had all of my lights in ZHA groups tied to rooms. So Dining Room, Living Room, etc. Then I had adaptive lighting set up for each room as well. In the config I would tell Adaptive Lighting to control the ZHA group. I would constantly get EmberNet NETWORK BUSY failing to enqueue commands.

#

When I go to light groups in native Home Assistant all of that goes away.

#

The other issue with ZHA groups which is probably tangential to this current problem is that if one light would turn on randomly (happens a lot here) then it would toggle the whole ZHA group to turn on.

unborn orbit
#

That's one thing I still am uncertain of. Are zigbee groups more or less efficient in terms of coordinator use?

#

It's a network wide broadcast I think

austere patio
#

Zigbee groups send broadcasts that bounce around. They'll "instantly" toggle a bunch of lights, but if you send them continuously, it'll cause unnecessary congestion

floral plinth
#

So at this point nothing is happening in my house. Any light group backed with zigbee is just not responding.

#

I toggled a group on and one came on nothing else. I toggled the same off and nothing happened. Other light groups do nothing too

austere patio
#

Still have that HUSBZB-1?

floral plinth
#

I have that and I have the sonoff P version too

unborn orbit
#

I think others have had better luck with sengled than I have. I ended up replacing them after they kept falling off network

floral plinth
#

I bought all 3 because I had no idea if that was the problem

unborn orbit
#

But you are now using home assistant groups right?

floral plinth
#

I am using HA groups

unborn orbit
#

If so that's different

floral plinth
#

At this point I would buy 100 new bulbs if I new what would work

unborn orbit
#

It's the same as sending individual commands to each light

floral plinth
#

I think the individual is better with adaptive lighting because you end up DoS'ing yourself otherwise

austere patio
floral plinth
#

You mean connect the hub to my local PC and do that?

austere patio
#

It'll be accessible from within the HA container, or from any Python environment where you run pip install bellows

floral plinth
#

I did run the migrate radio functionality

austere patio
#

In that case it's safe to do. People sometimes migrate without resetting the old radio, which causes massive problems when it's plugged in again and starts trying to control the same network

#

While the packet capture is running, try toggling individual lights a few times

floral plinth
#

When I went to the new radio it did say something about IEEE didn't match backup and it would overwrite. Not sure if that was OK. Assuming it overwrote the backup with the new dongle IEEE

austere patio
#

Yep, that's normal. Did you check the box to overwrite the IEEE address?

floral plinth
#

I think so

#

Do you happen to know where the driver is for Windows for this HUSBZB?

austere patio
floral plinth
#

Well this is fun

#

And they work directly with ZHA? No hue hub needed?

unborn orbit

floral plinth

#

The little dimmer switch?

And don't use ZHA groups

unborn orbit

#

And that lets you reset bulbs? Like when they stop responding in HA?

night rain
unborn orbit
night rain
#

Haven’t actually used lighting groups though, just entered each bulb in manually in Adaptive lighting

night rain
unborn orbit
#

Essentially put zha or z2m into inclusion mode to allow devices to join but you need the bulbs to also initiate their inclusion. Most other bulbs you either turn on/off a number of times to initiate but hue requires either their hub to join then remove or easier is to use their switch and hold the top and bottom buttons for around 12 seconds to initiate

night rain
#

How do you choose which bulb to put in inclusion mode with the switch?

#

Is it a proximity thing?

#

I just can't figure out the right path

Just use COM3 as the path

floral plinth
#

Do I just open this in Wireshark?

austere patio
#

Yeah. If you don't mind, can you send me a copy along with your ZHA network key?

floral plinth
#

Let me see how to personal message here

#

Nothing sensitive on my Zigbee network and I guess I can always regen if I care

night rain
#

Side note, what’s the easiest way to change zigbee channel? And is it possible without having to re-pair all of your devices?

austere patio
#

Depends on your integration though. Z2M will require a few files to be edited.

night rain
#

So I have to install zigpy alongside ZHA?

austere patio
#

It's already installed in the HA Docker container

#

But you'll need to install the above command line tool, the command is in the README

night rain
#

Do I need to disable ZHA before installing?

austere patio
#

Yeah, they both can't access the radio

night rain
#

So disable ZHA, install zigpy command line tool, run the change channel command line, then enable ZHA? And just check to see if any devices have stopped responding, and just remove and re-pair those?

austere patio
#

Yep

#

You should see the new channel appear in the configuration page

#

Alright cool, thank you so much. I run the install command in the terminal & ssh window, right?

So after having some problems with z2m in docker + tasmotized sonoff zb bridge I decided to give my drawer-sitting zzh! cc2652r dongle a try. My HA sits on Proxmox VM. I set the passthrough, ZHA integration perfectly auto discovers zzh! at ttyUSB0 (I opted for the by-id-string just to be on the safe side). The pairing of the routers (few sonoff zb minis, few tuya zb mini likes, few sonoff basic zb r3s) done flawlessly, end devices (like aqara pir, sonof pir, sonof th, xiaomi lux, etc.) also with no problems at all. Everything seems stable until after a few hours. ZHA fails to load and the logs say the coordinator is unavaliable: 2022-12-27 20:01:03.214 WARNING (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.zha.core.gateway] Couldn't start ZNP = Texas Instruments Z-Stack ZNP protocol: CC253x, CC26x2, CC13x2 coordinator. If I check the all hardware section in HA the ttyUSB0 is gone. same when checking proxmox - no such device on pass-through. Restart of HA and/or proxmox does not help. But if I re-plug the zzh! coordinator and then restart HA everything gets back on the right track. After a few hours it's all the same - coordinator not found. Anyone?

The $ is just to denote a non-root shell. You run the stuff after it.

Nah, it's fine

It’s having me upgrade pip first I think

You can ignore that too

Then should I re-run the install zigpy command?

Just run zigpy alone to see if it installed. It should have.

Hey Guys,
to be honest I'm from Germany and my English is a bit bad... but yeah, I hope you will understand!

I've recently bought a Raspbee 2 and connected it to my Raspberry Pi, I've tried it in many configurations with ZHA in HomeAssistant, Zigbee2MQTT and now deCONZ with Phoscon. I made a group in Phoscon called "Deckenlampe" to control my ceiling lamp consisting of 6 "TRÅDFRI Lampe GU10 WS 400lm" lamps. I've done the same with ZHA and Zigbee2MQTT, but with that I created the group in HomeAssistant, but the problem is the same in all configurations.

Everytime when I change the brightness, the slider first go the desired position, bugs then back the first position and finally bugging to the right position, I'll send a video from it.
Do you have any idea how to fix it? Is there maybe a way to tell HomeAssistant or deCONZ that it should ignore refreshes from deCONZ for 2 seconds?
I've searched very much but didn't get any good idea how to fix it.

So I just got a second wireless AP, and I’m trying to find the best channel for my zigbee stuff when I install this second AP. Currently I’m on channel 20, and my hubz stick thingy is about 10 feet away from my WAP on Wi-Fi channel 11. I’m in townhouses and there are a ton of wireless signals around me, so many that it’s hard to get a consistent reading when using a Wi-Fi analyzer app, but I believe the second WAP will be installed about 30ft away from my zigbee coordinator, and set to channel 1, leaving channel 6 empty in my house, but still congested because of neighbors. My question is whether or not I should try to set the zigbee channel to something like 17/18 (in the middle of Wi-Fi channel 6), or change it from 20 to 15 so that it would only register interference from the sideband lobes of my further away AP, and no interference from the AP that it’s closer to

#

Both APs would be set to 20mhz channel width to minimize overlap with zigbee

zigpy radio znp /dev/cu.usbserial-1420 energy-scan

austere patio

The /dev/... part is specific to each computer and environment. You'll need to figure out which USB device your stick is: ls -l /dev/serial/by-id/. That should give you a symlink like /dev/ttyUSB1 or something.

If you can't send stuff but can receive stuff, that sounds like interference to me. Make sure your Conbee is on a USB 2.0 extension cable and away from 2.4GHz interference sources like SSDs, USB 3.0 ports, WiFi APs, etc.

jovial plume
# vernal knoll I assume you rebooted...?

Yea, rebooted a couple times now. Tried a different USB slot on the RPi (USB 2.0 not 3.0), tried moving the pi out of the server rack in case the enclosure was an issue, tried disconnecting any 2.4ghz devices near that I could to help with any interference too

vernal knoll
#

I had to put mine on a 6' USB extension cord

#

Move away from the networking hardware.

jovial plume
vernal knoll
#

Worth a shot

#

Mine had intermittent problems that were 90% solved by moving it away from the other hardware.

austere patio
#

Definitely. Try it if you have one. I'm not familiar enough with Z2M to help debug this exactly but if you can receive updates but are unable to send commands, that's almost assuredly an interference problem.

vernal knoll
#

The remaining 9% went when I changed channels.

#

I still have 1% annoyance.

jovial plume
#

The only major change I've done recently is patched it into the server rack through a dumb switch into a PoE switch, instead of directly into the PoE switch (and changed the cable to a slim gauge) - but this is just for network and power, I don't imagine it could cause these issues

#

Shit, I'll give it a shot. I don't have an extension cable with me but I'll find one on Amazon

austere patio
#

Get a long one then

jovial plume

Change channels?

raven jewel

It absolutely could. You've added interference 😂

vernal knoll
austere patio
#

I had to connect all of mine end-to-end when testing the Conbee

A long-term solution would be to get a coordinator less sensitive to interference, like a CC2652, but an extension cable is cheaper and easier to set up

#

Do wifi survey to see where the traffic is since Zigbee uses the same 2.4GHz spectrum as wifi. Then change Zigbee channels away from it.

Anyone know of a Switch that doesn't kill power to the bulbs, so that Smart Bulbs can be used, but will just pass through power at the "switch location on wall" ?

I have 4 canister lights in the kitchen, I'd like to individually control each bulb, but replace the 2(?) way switch on the wall to prevent power from being interrupted to the Smart Bulbs, but would be nice to have like a Zigbee Scene Controller there on the wall instead maybe, if possible

Hello, i am thinking to use Zigbee for my home automation and was thinking about how to build a strong network.

Don't ask to ask, just ask your question. Then people can answer when they're around.

When you do ask a question, try to provide as much background detail as possible. Ask yourself these questions first so that others don't have to:

  1. What version of the Home Assistant are you running? (remember, last isn't a version)
  2. What exactly are you trying to do that won't work?
  3. Is the problem uniform or erratic?
  4. What's the exact error message?
  5. When did it arise?
  6. What exactly don't you "get"?
  7. Can you share sample code, ideally with line errors where the error occurs?

hello, happy holidays! having an issue with some HUE downlights. 2 of them check in as they should (last seen always within 5 min) but cannot issue any light_on/off calls. just wont turn on/off. but they do respond to group calls (they are part of a ZHA group, and if i turn on/off the group, so do they) any suggestions on troubleshooting something like this? ZHA/SONOFF -E adapter.

mellow geode
#

so you have Hue lights that only respond to group commands but not to any requests when you target them alone?

#

does a power-cycle help temporarily? also, do you have IKEA mains-powered devices on your network?

fast sentinel
#

correct - power cycle on one of them helps temporarily, the other no change. no IKEA mains. lots of hue lights, 70 or so. inovelli wall switches (bad batch removed)

How long is "temporarily"?

fast sentinel
#

it will respond to one or two commands directly, and no more

#

So the only routing devices on your network are Hue bulbs and Inovelli switches?

i removed these bulbs, waited a good hour, and rejoined as well. i am going to try to update firmware on all the bulbs and see if there's any difference. anything you think i should try, i'm happy to

i disabled OTA for inovelli since one of their firmware updates killed my grouping; only do those manually. just enabled OTA on the hue bulbs, they seem to be updating which is sweet

Updating zha sensor took longer than the scheduled update interval 0:00:30

i do get a ton of these whenever ZHA reboots, but i was told this is normal 'noise' that will be fixed in a later release:

Ah, Sonoff's magic firmware

austere patio
#

Hmm. I've only seen firmware crashes with Sonoff's FW, that's odd.

fast sentinel
#

that firmware crash is the first time i seen it, i am pretty sure (with zero proof lol) it's related to the OTA updates i'm trying to do for the HUE bulbs

austere patio

It'll re-connect and restart

fast sentinel

yup i didnt even notice the downtime, it must of happened quick. firmware is being pushed out again, control of lights is good (except direct control of some bulbs as my original problem)

My nabu casa SkyConnect doesn't detect my small Aquara temperature sensors, but does see the larger aquara temp/tvoc sensors... What am I missing?

sour shadow
#

You're using ZHA?

#

And ... you're going to tell us the model number of those sensors this time?

glacial zinc
#

I am using the SkyConnect 1.0 integration, unsure if it goes by another name but am happy to supply screenshots

sour shadow
#

That's likely to be ZHA, there's a little Zigbee Home Automation under SkyConnect

austere patio
#

The Aqara sensors need to be reset in a specific way. Click the "add device" button in ZHA, then hold down the button on the sensor until the blue LED starts blinking. After it blinks for the third time, just let go and it should scan for and join your network.

sour shadow
#

The Zigbee2MQTT docs usually have pairing instructions on them, if you find your model number

glacial zinc
#

wsdcgq11lm is the model number. I had to do a bit of translation

Ok, I have no idea WHY it worked now. I have pressed that button exactly like that while trying to add it before... but now it worked. /shrug

I recently mistakenly activated both Z2M (installed and forgot about it when setting HA up) and ZHA, resulting in ZHA not starting.

I removed Z2M and ZHA was working fine again for a couple of hours.

Now when I got home again, the ZHA integration is still running, but ALL (22) connected devices are now unavailable.

Any ideas? Restart doesn't help.

To map a USB port to a container, you will need to use the --device flag when starting the container. For example, if you want to map the USB port at /dev/ttyUSB0 to the container, you can use the following command:

docker run -it --device /dev/ttyUSB0:/dev/ttyUSB0 my_container

Hi,
I just updated to Core 2022.12.8 and I lost all my zigbee devices (they appear as unavailable). I can see them working in Z2M.

#

Any idea what can be the issue?

austere patio
#

Are you using a Conbee?

wide quiver
#

Nope, a sonoff

#

The issue is not from the gateway since it's working fine in Z2M

#

The link from Z2M to HA seems to be broken somewhere

#

I tried to downgrade to 2022.12.5 but same issue

ember night
#

I'm looking for an alternative for the Popp ZB-shield (rebranded Elelabs ELR023, based on EFR32MG12) on my RPi 3 running HA supervised. Main reason I want something different is that I can't seem to get decent connections with remote buttons on ZHA (tried Ikea and INNR devices). I made an attempt to do this with Zigbee2MQTT but that didn't work. So I'd like to use a device that is fully supported on both ZHA and Z2MQTT. I was thinking about getting a SkyConnect but it is unclear to me if it is supported on Supervised if you only use the Zigbee and not multi-protocol. Can someone in the know tell me more about this?

Support for EZSP radios is pretty new in Z2M so I don't think it is

How many routers do you have on your network? That coordinator should work fine.

ember night
# austere patio How many routers do you have on your network? That coordinator should work fine.

Actually, I currently have about 20 lights and switches on a Philips Hue hub, and the ZB-shield is only communicating with an Aqara thermometer right now. They are running separate networks on different channels, which is not ideal of course for a mesh protocol that is in a frequency range that conflicts with WiFi. I want to switch everything over to a single controller but when I tried this I found that not all devices work as they should. I could connect and control light bulbs but the remotes I tried (IKEA tradfri button and Styrbar, Innr 5 button) kept disconnecting after a few seconds.

ember night
austere patio
#

Oh, you're right, I transposed the digits! The SkyConnect is based on the EFR32MG21, not the EFR32MG12. They're different generations but it's not that much of a change, especially when your network consists of a few buttons.

ember night
#

Yeah, I was a bit surprised when the buttons didn't work, since everything else went pretty smoothly. But I tried to connect them many times. Sometimes they would not connect at all. Sometimes they would connect but disconnect after a few seconds. And a few times I got the Ikea Styrbar to connect for long enough to set up an automation that would make it switch a light on and off. But after a short while it would disconnect again and not be reconnectable unless I removed and reset it. I looked around a bunch of forums but didn;t find and answer, so if anyone has a suggestion I'm open to it.

I just checked the user guide, no good. Let me check something though

hello, everyone. i have a gledopto 2id strip controller. in other hubs it shows up as two devices: a dimmer and a color rgb bulb. in zha it shows up as a dimmer and a switch. the rgb bulb is a switch instead of a bulb. the device when reconfigured does show the color endpoint and i can use the service to change the colors on the device. i started fixing this with a template but a very helpful individual in the templates channel mentioned that this may be fixable easier with something called a quirk?

#

from some googling it appears this device shows correctly in zigbee2mqtt but i'm using zha

tulip patrol
#

@ember night I can't see anything in the help section of universal-silabs-flasher that would get the current version

#

@ember night you could try looking at the coordinator information, I'm not sure where that is in z2m

ember night
#

thanks gambl0r. I will look into it a bit more and report back here if I find out more

so, i found a quirk for another model from the same manufacturer. can somebody tell me if i'm reading this correct?
https://github.com/zigpy/zha-device-handlers/blob/dev/zhaquirks/gledopto/gls007z.py
there are three endpoints defined (12, 11. 13). this quirk removes 11 and 13? i think i would need to create a quirk that adds Color.cluster_id to endpoint 11. can anybody confirm that before i go and waste a bunch of time?

is it worth buying into Zigbee? for now I only have plans to get 3 door sensors, which will be half the price if i go with BLE. i do have "zigbee" now as part of Hue but of course we don't count that. IDK if i'll ever add more "sensors" really. or should i future proof and go zigbee? has anyone had a similar experience?

fast sentinel
#

hi hjf. hmmm - worth it? depends on your use case & the problems you are trying to solve. you may find your 3 door sensors grow exponentially, so maybe try to plan ahead so you dont re-do everything again. i'd only use bluetooth if i had no choice.

lucid pumice
#

if i restore a backup from my existing ha to a new one with a different zigbee adapter am i going to have problems? i'm ok with repairing the hardware but i don't want to lose the entity id and names. using zha for both adapters

fast sentinel
#

you can use the 'move radio' option. i've used it a few times, works really well, did not have to re-pair anything, and nothing was renamed. 130 devices

#

but yeah the restore should work the same

#

make sure the other radio is not on..

lucid pumice
#

so restore a backup onto the new one and then move radio to put them on the new adapter.

fast sentinel
#

you may want to do the migrate radio first, make sure everything is working as it should on your current HA setup. then you do your HA restore to your new instance. why are you moving your HA instance? just curious..

lucid pumice
#

i have a supervised install on debian 10. i'm moving to a containerized install on 11 with a more recent zigbee adapter.

#

so the process should probably be to put the new radio on the old box, migrate, backup, shutdown. then put the radio on the new box and restore the backup.

fast sentinel
#

yes, that's what i would do. when you say 'restore the backup' - i'm assuming you mean restoring your entire home assistant backup to the new containerized debian 11, nothing to do with the ZHA section radio restore (just to be clear)

lucid pumice
#

yes. i mean to use the full backup facility and restore it. that'll take over my automations that use the entities as well.

Bringing the sensor closer (like 1 cm from the radio)
Holding the Button until it quickly flashed three times, then letting go
Continuously pressing the button every second
All of the above combined.

Of course I'm searching for new Zigbee devices in HA.

For reference, I'm using https://www.amazon.de/Aqara-Temperature-Humidity-Sensor-Feuchtigkeitssensor/dp/B07D37FKGY and https://www.amazon.de/Aqara-Water-Leak-Sensor-Wassersensor/dp/B07D39MSZS . The HA device I'm using is the HA Yellow.

I moved from Deconz with Conbee2 to zigbee2mqtt with sonoff-P

And I notice a lot slower responses,
Especially when turning on scenes involving many light bulbs.

Even turning off all the lights in the house, it was immediate with DeConz, and now it's like going in "2-3 waves" until everything turns off (or changes), could take almost 10 seconds now

Does it make sense?

Hi folks. Anyone else running into challenges with OTA updates in Z2M for Hue bulbs? I was able to update bulbs that were on 1.88.1 to 1.102.2, but any bulb that's running 1.93.11 won't update. I get an error stating "Update of 'Living Room Left' failed (Image padding contains invalid bytes)"

Anybody know of any EU voltage hot water heater switches/controllers that are local only? Everything I've found, zigbee OR wifi, has to go through Tuya or someone else's cloud.

Yeah that was my reaction too. Even though plenty of other people are saying their houses haven't burned down there's a LOT of juice in a boiler's circuit. The only thing I've been able to find is potentially sonoff's 25 amp behemoth.

Pull out the battery, put it back in, and it'll finish in a long while

I think 1.29 should include the bugfix and be released in a few days

#

For now, just don't update those lights

golden escarp
#

Thanks!

mellow geode
#

And the reason why only some of the bulbs updated is that the bulbs that previously ran 1.88.1 are older Hue bulbs (no Bluetooth, no attribute reporting, no dynamic scenes, ...). The newer ones were previously already on 1.93.11.
The 1.101.xx images are completely different for the generations of bulbs (Silabs for newer bulbs and TI/Atmel for older bulbs IIRC). But I guess Signify names the versions in a similar way to not cause any confusion about why some bulbs have way older versions than others

golden escarp
#

Gotcha. Good to know the new version of Z2M should fix it. I'm good with waiting.

Hey everyone, I'm currently using a Texas Instruments - LAUNCHXL-CC26X2R1 and I'm very happy with it.

Now a friend of mine would like to start with "Smarthome" and he would also like to convince himself of ZigBee.

Which ZigBee gateway with a similar (or better) range is currently recommended?

rapid dawnBOT
#

Buy something CC2652 based. This list is a good one, both Tube and Electrolama have been proven to have excellent customer service. The current generation of EZSP sticks (see here for some) are also a good choice for ZHA.

Anything CC2530 or CC2531 based should be avoided - they're old, slow, and only suitable for a dozen or so devices. The Sonoff ZBbridge isn't advised since it uses WiFi (built in interference causing stability/reliability issues), and the HUSBZB-1 uses an older chipset so should be avoided.

Finally, the ConBee range are fine with deCONZ, but experience with ZHA and Zigbee2MQTT appears to be mixed.

#

Hey folks. Is there a way that a zigbee button can be associated with a zigbee relay/switch and maintain that binding even if the coordinator dies? I found some reference to using zigbee light link, but it was vague

#

The idea here is to have a wall-paddle stay associated with a switch/light even if the mesh goes down in some way

#

How would I find a zigbee relay and toggle/paddle that would support end device binding with eachother?

#

is it "touchlink"?

austere patio
rancid flax
#

Sweet!

rancid flax
austere patio
#

Yes

rancid flax
mellow geode
#

Do note that only some Zigbee 3.0 buttons support binding (in my experience at least).
Konke buttons don't, some Aqara buttons allow for it (although they make you use the whole remote for one light), IKEA has somewhat blocked functionality with recent firmware updates, and Hue buttons mostly work, but the newer ones with a shared on/off button send an alternating on/off command (instead of a toggle command), so you might need to press it twice in case you toggle it from HA.

devout valve
#

I’ve been using a couple of 13 button zigbee switch from Samotech (though they don’t make them) and they can bind independently of coordinator. But best to initially register. It also created zigbee groups that ZHA can expose to automations.

my skyconnect is on the way. How hard is it to migrate from my current stick? Am I able to do a backup/restore? Or do I have to re-pair each device? Asking because I got a bunch of zigbee sensors for Christmas and I'll wait until after the skyconnect arrives to pair them if it's going to make more work

mellow geode
#

What stick are you currently using?

still terrace
mellow geode
#

they make three sticks. Do you know if it's the "SONOFF Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus-P" or perhaps "-E" (instead of "-P")?

#

Anyway, you could probably migrate to the SkyConnect. ZHA has a nice UI for guiding you through the migration.
(I'm not sure if I'd migrate your complete Zigbee network from a "Sonoff Dongle -P" to the SkyConnect at the moment though)

still terrace
#

As far as not migrating, is the SkyConnect too unstable at this point?

#

I haven't read much about people's experiences just yet

mellow geode
#

No, it's been great mostly. It's just that the CC2652 isn't bad either (on which your Sonoff dongle is based upon).

#

Do you know if you're using ZHA or Z2M?

still terrace
#

ZHA

#

I mainly got the skyconnect for the future Thread/Matter support. My Zigbee has been find with Sonoff. I don't have an extensive Zigbee network though, most of my stuff is Zwave so even if it does have issues it wouldn't be the end of the world for me

mellow geode
#

I think the migration (TI to EZSP) should work fine.
The multi-pan support is currently disabled (running Zigbee and Thread through a single radio) due to some end-devices dropping off when connected directly to the coordinator.

If you have two sticks, I'd recommend letting your Sonoff stick (CC2652 based) keep running the Zigbee network and using your SkyConnect for when you get Thread devices.

#

But again, migrating your Zigbee network to the SkyConnect should work fine. The Zigbee and Thread network will run on the same "radio channel" though. When you have two separate sticks (for two separate networks), you could avoid that.

still terrace
#

I hadn't thought of keeping them separate. I'm going to show my ignorance when it comes to Matter then. How does that work for Zigbee based Matter devices? Would that work? Or does it require Skyconnect to manage the zigbee network?

mellow geode
#

It's a bit complicated. I'll try to keep my explanations somewhat basic though.

Zigbee has the "ZCL" (Zigbee Cluster Library) for the commands which describe what messages need to be sent in order to turn a light on/off for example.
Zigbee also features the "network part" (routers, end-devices, coordinator, network-ids, ...).

With Thread-based Matter devices, they become somewhat separate things.
Thread is just the "network part" (internally IPv6 based).
Matter describes the commands for how a light needs to be turned on/off.

#

Separating these two things allows manufacturers to also make WiFi-based Matter devices (no need to use Thread at all then, but the messages for turning on/off lights are the same).

There's no such thing as a "Zigbee-based Matter device". The Philips Hue Bridge supports Matter, the new IKEA bridge will too. They're basically translating Matter commands to their Zigbee network then.
All Zigbee hubs/bridges will connect over LAN or WiFi to your main network (instead of Thread though), so the SkyConnect won't be used for this.

The SkyConnect can be

  1. a coordinator for your Zigbee network (just like your Sonoff stick at the moment)
  2. a border-router for your Thread network (similar to what a coordinator is in your Zigbee network)

So in the second case, it connects your HA instance to your Thread network. This allows HA to send "Matter commands" (over SkyConnect via your Thread network to your Thread-enabled Matter devices).

still terrace
#

thanks for that thorough explanation. So long story short, it should work fine with them being separate sticks?

mellow geode
#

Yes

#

(Having two separate sticks should also give you the best performance for both your Zigbee and Thread network.)

still terrace
#

cool. And right now the Skyconnect doesn't have the ability to work as a Thread border-router right? That's still coming soon?

mellow geode
#

You should already be able to setup everything, but it's not user-friendly nor recommended at the moment.
(Firmware is here: https://github.com/NabuCasa/silabs-firmware)

I think for an end-user, installing the multi-pan implementation (which is currently pulled) even when you're not using the Zigbee part is the easiest option right now?

austere patio
#

Yeah, installing the multi-PAN addon and configuring auto-firmware flashing is the easiest way to set it up right now

#

You won't be able to go back to Zigbee firmware without re-flashing it with a command-line tool but as long as you never set up the Zigbee side, it'll basically just be a Thread border router (leader?)

#

OpenThread RCP firmware is coming soon, which will be directly usable with the OpenThread addon

mellow geode
#

(ah, "Thread Leader" is probably the right term here. not too familiar with Thread naming yet 😄)

still terrace
#

I need to learn a bit more about Thread/Matter. I've mostly lived in the zwave/zigbee world

austere patio
#

For the most part, Matter over Thread is basically Zigbee, just with better security, hopefully a more rigid specification and certification process, and the ability to tunnel packets over IP (so you don't necessarily have to relay things back to the "coordinator" over Thread). Theoretically it'll be easier to deploy in split environments, like a distant detached garage.

I'm using Z2M w/ Sonoff ZBDongle-E and I've been having a problem where some devices completely vanish from my mesh. I haven't really tracked down a trigger at this point since I usually don't actually realize it until looking at the dashboard and realize something is missing, but at least a Third Reality Motion Sensor and a SmartThings Gen 2 Multipurpose sensor have completely disappeared at different times.

Any thoughts on what might be up or at a minimum how I might be able to see when something drops off? I've got alerting set up for entities that go unavailable, but these entities straight up get removed from HA and it's like they were never there. I had to go back and query Influx (and see it's been gone for 2 months) to prove I wasn't crazy.

#

Are you running the dev Z2M?

nova crest
#

I'm not

raven jewel
#

Last I heard that was the one that it worked best on

nova crest
#

As in the Edge branch? or...?

raven jewel
#

Yes, I think that's it.

#

If it's an add on you need to re-download it to update it as a note 🙂

nova crest
#

Yeah, I know it shows up separately. Are there things in dev that they've not been merging back to master specifically for this coordinator?

austere patio
#

The integration usually has no control over how the mesh operates so if things "drop off", they'll do that even if you switch versions

#

What routers are these devices joined through?

nova crest
#

I can't say for certain, but likely either a Hue bulb or the coordinator itself

#

I've got a bunch of other similar SmartThings sensors that haven't had any issues (yet) also appear to be connecting via Hue bulbs at the present time

#

It shows up in Z2M -> Settings -> Raw -> Devices

#

Not sure if that means anything

And the -E version also has magic firmware that crashes randomly sometimes. (Should still work mostly, but just get the -P variant)

So.... typical Sonoff then

glossy marten
#

does anyone have a link to an aliexpress store that is not sketchy

You don't necessarily have to get a coordinator off of AliExpress. Just stick to the CC2652, depending on your region you can get it off of Amazon or a local web store

I think my ZHA setup is ironed out enough by now to start migrating all my hue lights to ZHA and stop having two separate Zigbee networks running parallel. Two questions: 1 Is there a (semi) automated way to re-create scenes and controller actions defined in Hue or is it all manual? 2 Is there any use for the Hue hub(e.g. use as a repeater) or is it a brick after I migrate?

Hello,
I just bought the Sonoff | DIY ZBdongle-P Zigbee 3.0USB Dongle Plus
does it support Touchlink by default or do I have to flash it with another firmware ?

mellow geode
#

The -P uses Z-Stack firmware which supports TouchLink (and ZHA doesn't, Z2M does)
However, check that the firmware is 20220219 or later, as a TouchLink crash was fixed in that version.

#

Also, what's the reason you need TouchLink for? (just resetting some bulbs or for pairing?)

I have a Philips Hue Ceiling Light that I “orphaned” and now I can’t reset it because

, I lost the Philips hue remote and can’t find it anywhere,

so my last option before just giving in and removing the lamp and making a wifi-lan bridge is Touchlink

Hi, I have plenty of this light switches in my house https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/TS0001_switch_module.html
From zigbee2mqtt I was able to configure the state after power on, but with ZHA the configuration is not shown in the device properties, so I tried to change the attribute power_on_state from the device ZigBee clusters but the value is not stored (if I click on read attribute the previous value is shown).
I know that the value I entered is right because I copied it from a device that was configured from zigbee2mqtt with the state I wanted.
I am doing anything wrong?

lucid pumice
#

well, restoring a backup failed horribly. not only is everything no longer paired all the names have been lost so all my automations are broken.

raven jewel
#

Did you copy the invisible folders?

lucid pumice
#

yes, did a full extract from the tar

raven jewel
#

And HA was shut down while you extracted it?

lucid pumice
#

yes. I've found this in the logs No such file or directory: '/dev/serial/by-id/usb-Texas_Instruments_TI_CC2531_USB_CDC___0X00124B0014D96ABB-if00' which i think means i need to expose that device through the docker compose devices in order to get the current device working.

lucid pumice

i think that means i must have configured it manually in the old version. enabling that mapping and the migrating to the same thing but auto detected brought back the device connectivity.

Is there a list of devices that have been verified/tested that are zigbee 3.0 compliant, most specifically with touchlink and not requiring a coordinator?

My main goal here is to retrofit in a 4 channel relay in a pull ceiling fan w/lights so i can adjust lights and speed with just 1 wire from switch. I'll add a couple of zigbee switches there that I want to bind to the relay and have work even if the zigbee mesh and coordinator dissapear.

Hi does someone here know a good zigbee/zwave powerstrip?

  • Want a large powerstrip (minimum 8 - maximum 20)
  • Want a Small powerstrip (maximum 6)
  • Every powerstrip could potentially have usb ports with fast charging
  • Main Features I want are individual toggle On/Off and Power Monitoring for each outlet.

Hi,

Trying to get an Aqara E1 curtain to work with ZHA, but it doesn't seem to cope well. Basically the only thing I can do is to close it fully by pulling the slider (even though the slider returns NaN).

Looking at Clusters, it is set to Alarms. I suppose I should change this to WindowCovering - but after that I'm lost.

Any advice, or pointers for further reading?

I need to do some work with them. I have 2 but I need to get a rod that’s the same diameter all the way across

It’s on the list but I haven’t had time to do it

hey... my zigbee hue bulbs are telling me there's a firmware update... however, when I click to update it, it tells me:
"Update failed (image padding contains invalid bytes)

Any Ideas? (using Zigbee2MQTT)

Yes... search the post history here 😉

(And that's the case. It'll be fixed with Z2M 1.29. For now, don't apply the affected updates)

Hi. I’m pretty new to discord, so if I’m doing something wrong, let me know 😅 This week I received my SkyConnect. Plugged it into my Pi4, unplugged my CC2531 and tried to configure everything with the SkyConnect. long story short: it works, but some of my smart plugs and led strips seem to ‘reset’ every 15 seconds? As if they were turned off and immediately on again? Sometimes it stops and seems to work fine, and then at seemingly random times and intervals starts to ‘flicker’ every 15 seconds again. Never experienced this with the CC2531, no other hardware changes or new deceives are involved. Could this be the SkyConnects fault, or is there something else to blame? Happened both in Zigbee2MQTT and ZHA (which were not enabled simultaneously).

So Z2M uses hard-coded network settings for every coordinator unless you change them in your config file

#

When you "switched" from the CC2531 to the SkyConnect, the network settings were almost identical, save for the IEEE address of the SkyConnect, which cannot be changed (more than once)

#

So even though the device database was cleared, the network settings were likely the same. When you set up ZHA, did you click "erase network settings and form a new network"?

Hi. I am running HASS in Docker.
I just purchased a Conbee II to replace by Sonoff ZBBridge. It worked well enough but I didn't like it relying on the Wifi to work.
Anyways, Migrate Radio in ZHA worked fine, everything I had still shows up fine.
All my sensors still work fine - I can see temperatures and everything.
But none of my switches work - all smart plugs and switches are failing.

Anything I can look at? Already restarted everything, nothing showing in the Logging screen.

Make sure to update the firmware on the Conbee before migrating

#

Though being unable to control devices probably is just interference. Is your Conbee on a USB 2.0 extension cable and away from USB 3.0 ports, SSDs, 2.4GHz WiFi, etc.?

Its on a 32ft extension cable running up the inside of the wall from the basement where I have the server

32ft? Is it an active extension cable?

Two other things of note
Radio type: deconz is showing under Network settings in ZHA. I assumed this would say Zigbee?
And also, if I Download Diagnostics and look at the JSON, I still see "sonoff zigbee dongle plus v2" and "sonoff zigbee dongle plus" listed, even though this should be removed.

Neither of those are a problem. The Conbee is a deCONZ radio (encompassing both the Raspbee and the Conbee).

Hi all, I'm hoping someone would be kind enough to advise me. I've had HA running on a Pi3 for several years. This week I purchased an Aqara temp sensor (and I'm dumb for thinking I could work around the "Aqara hub is required" notice so entirely my fault) and of course I couldn't use it.

My HA install is written directly to the SD card. Is there a device (Conbee II or something?) that I can connect up that's going to play nicely with the way I have installed HA and therefore allow me to connect the Aqara temp sensor to HA or am I better off finding an alternative sensor?

All these vendor specific apps/hubs etc are a minefield and frankly very frustrating. I'd prefer to get a vendor neutral solution. At the moment most of my devices connect via Wi-Fi which isn't ideal and I have Hue lights with the Hue hub which is Zigbee as far as I understand it?

Hopefully that makes sense and I haven't left out too much pertinent information.

Aqara sensors work just fine with just a non-hub Zigbee coordinator. Avoid the Conbee II and get a CC2652 or an EFR32 (the latter if using ZHA, which works well with both).

You don't need to buy an Aqara hub. Companies want you to buy their hub to get locked into their ecosystem, but Zigbee is Zigbee (mostly). Depending on which Zigbee integration you use, there are recommended Zigbee USB sticks you can get

@tidal portal Buy something CC2652 based. This list is a good one, both Tube and Electrolama have been proven to have excellent customer service. The current generation of EZSP sticks (see here for some) are also a good choice for ZHA.

Anything CC2530 or CC2531 based should be avoided - they're old, slow, and only suitable for a dozen or so devices. The Sonoff ZBbridge isn't advised since it uses WiFi (built in interference causing stability/reliability issues), and the HUSBZB-1 uses an older chipset so should be avoided.

Finally, the ConBee range are fine with deCONZ, but experience with ZHA and Zigbee2MQTT appears to be mixed.

Also, the whole point of this channel is vendor neutral solutions 😛

puddly: Updated the firmware, Re-Migrated radio and copied network to the same stick - Same issue.

I bought the Conbee II for ZHA because I saw some comments saying it was the "golden standard".
These comments are making me regret that choice I think...
