All sticks require flashing, but the newer ones don't require an adapter

#

I may be dumb, sorry, but I am not sure what you mean by get with the program

simple sentinel
#

It's just an expression

#

You like z2m, I like z2m

#

he should too

#

with all the sticks that come with it, though they aren't fancy

wise sentinel
#

so you are saying deffinitely go with z2m

sour shadow
#

Yes

wise sentinel
#

there is no point in going with the other choices

simple sentinel
#

I mean, people that like the other choices still get to chime in

#

But your friend gets to benefit from you already knowing about z2m

#

If it's a matter of keeping the living room presentable, maybe you can work around it with some eye-pleasing hack

sour shadow
#

Put the stick behind something

On a bamboo-stick in a flower arrangment

wise sentinel
#

I can see that the difference between the two sticks recommended is that one can go under 1 GHz, which isn't relevant. So I guess I should go with the cheaper one to save money, right?

simple sentinel
#

Availability is also an issue

#

They are sold out from time to time

sour shadow
#

The two recommended sticks are functionally identical

wise sentinel
#

Okay, thanks for your time guys.

You knew the answer the whole time, you just needed a little push 😉

I have a bunch of Aqara temp/humidity sensors, and one of them is showing the same temp for the past 48 hours. It's not an unavailable entity, and looks the same in the Zigbee2MQTT addon. I'm kinda confused where to start troubleshooting. Any ideas?

gentle flint
#

Start with pinned posts

silent lintel
#

Thanks, Pal

austere patio
#

I've had one sensor enter an endless loop of sending garbage temperature readings every few seconds until I pulled the battery (or maybe I replaced it?)

silent lintel
#

gotcha. i got the debug logs on

#

looking now

austere patio
#

Clicking the white button on it should also tell you the status of the sensor on your network

#

Two short blinks I believe is it sending a heartbeat to its parent

#

Long one is no parent

silent lintel
#

oh wow the little button on the sensor itself? cool

#

clicked the button on the sensor and saw a click blink. just one time

austere patio
#

If it lasts longer than a split second then its parent is offline

#

If the LED also gets really dim then the battery is low

#

So it may not be able to re-join the network again until you put in a fresh one

silent lintel
#

I have an extra battery, cant hurt to try, right?

#

It's back awesome! I noticed before in Grafana there was not data at all for the sensor. I replaced the battery and got a data point.

Anyone had any succes binding a Sunricher SR-ZG2835RAC to a Philips Hue device? I see a couple of binds fail, but I still get no respons when using the dimmer.

#

Welp. it restarted but it's still the same temperature.

silent lintel
austere patio
#

No, way shorter

#

They both happen within half a second

#

Look at the network debug logs, they will show you what the sensor is sending

#

If it's even on your network

surreal hedge
#

I can't imagine that this popular router is not supported at all 😦

austere patio
#

What does the debug log show?

surreal hedge
#

I used the firmware which is linked on the zigbee2mqtt website

austere patio
#

That is the debug log, but the log level is not very high

sour shadow
#

I have one that I flashed a couple of years back. It works fine as a router

surreal hedge
#

exactly the same message with debug log

#

the *780 is the sensor directly, *cd3 is the router

austere patio
#

Why is the router sending an onOff message?

surreal hedge
#

because it's trying to relay the onOff message from a window sensor which I use to test the setup

austere patio
#

Hmm, you'll likely need to enable Zigbee-herdsman debug logging to get the full log

#

It isn't clear from the Z2M log what the actual message is

surreal hedge
#

at the top is the announcement, and at the bottom a failed message

austere patio
#

So in your log, 0xb996 (the router) joins the network directly to the coordinator, announces itself, and then itself sends an attribute report

#

It doesn't appear to be relaying that message

#

Is the contact sensor Aqara?

#

Is anything happening other than this error message showing up in your log?

#

As in, does the network otherwise work?

surreal hedge
#

yes the sensor is an aqara one
the linkquality of the sensor keeps the same, no matter if the router runs
I guess not, see point above

austere patio
#

Try force removing the router and re-adding it

#

I believe the router firmware should have manufacturer and model attributes so the fact that Z2M is complaining that it does not makes it seem like the router was never completely discovered by Z2M

#

Right now the router is still in Z2M's database so it doesn't seem to re-discover it

surreal hedge
#

ok thank you for the support! will try that tomorrow

Hello everyone. I try to call a update_entity service to get the power usage of a xiaomi smart plug. I do not get any failure message in the log but nothing happens. Updating without a service call takes about a minute or so. I am using conbee not the xiaomi hub. Any ideas how to find out why it does not work?

Hi folks, Is it possible to read if an enitity is "available" or "reachable". I want to be sure that the saved state is not very old and thus check when it was last "seen". Is this possible somehow? It would be a door/window sensor via deCONZ.

mighty river

#

You should hopefully find that there's an attribute for when the entity was last seen

#

Of course, sensors may only check in once an hour, or less

#

Look in devtools -> States

Since some time ago, I've had Zigbee lights "reconfigure" themselves (blinking green on Hue lights for example. Like how it happens when they're reconfigured through the UI).
Today, it just happened again. I didn't have debug logs on though but it seems like the light is somehow rejoining the network: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/VDzY86Rv2D/

#

0xEE75/00:17:88:01:09:01:66:d5

#

Using zigpy_znp 0.4.0 (upgraded "manually" on the latest Home Assistant with ZHA)

#

(using ZZH with latest firmware)

#

If anybody has some ideas on why this is happening, I'd really like to figure this out

#

... apparently not everybody likes blinking lights at 3am

#

'async_configure' stage failed: not enough values to unpack (expected 3, got 2) is also written in the log when reconfiguring a light manually in the UI (and it doesn't somehow rejoin/reconfigure itself)

#

Regardless, the light still seems to work fine after that

Is it possible to query what the firmware level of a device is via zha? Not looking to update it, just to know what I have. I've turned debug logging on for zha, but the endpoint device firmware level doesn't show in the log. Ideas?

austere patio
#

Try reading it from the device's OTA cluster

#

If not, reboot the device and wait for it to ask for a new image. It'll include its current firmware in the request.

trim stream
#

Gotcha. It's a little Sonoff zigbee motion sensor.

#

I'll try the OTA cluster first as last time the battery died it forgot it was paired and was royal pain to get HA to forget it so I could re-pair it.

#

When it includes the firmware in the request, will it show in the debug log, or somewhere else?

austere patio
#

Oh, in that case you're all set

#

Sonoff does not support OTA at all

trim stream
#

In that case, no way to see it. Sounds good then. Thanks.

I have Danfoss Ally integrated with ZHA. I just restarted HA and lost connection to this TRV. Is there a way to refresh/enforce connection? I don't even know why exactly it happened...My door sensor works just fine. I see in the logs that I'm getting some messages: Received an AF message from an unknown device: 0x6e92 It looks like having controller reconnected and restarting HA again helped for that...although I still don't know if there's a way to avoid direct access to hardware.

Hi all, I am having problems with the Zemismart ZM25TQ roller blind motor. It is discovered in HA using a CC2531 with Zigbee2MQTT. I am running the latest-dev Z2MQTT in a Docker Container on a Synology NAS. The up/down/stop buttons seem to be working however the position value does not change. I have not gone through the setup with the TUYA app, not sure if I need to. Any advice would be great.

#

guys, is it possible to access to devices.js in zigbee2mqtt in home assistant os? i cannot find it anywhere :/

#

i have only devices.db but it's not what im looking for

near echo
#

You will need to go in the container hosting z2m. But any changes will not be persisted. Usually we spin up a seprate docker for z2m with specific volumes exposed

#

I don't you will be able to do that in HA OS. As you have limited control on OS

mighty river

so i'm limited to waiting for update to add new TS0601 tuya TRV manafacturers...

i hope i won't be waiting for a long time

Hej automation friends. I have some RGBW lightbulbs from Paulmann and realized, that the brightness does not change below a value of 30-40 until it turns off at 0. Also color transitions do not seem to be very smooth. When I transition from orange to warmwhite it gets some kind of light purple inbetween.

So now I'm wondering: Are the lightbulbs all the same in that case, do some lightbulbs support smoother transitions and lower brightness values or am I just doing it wrong? 😂

Yes, the quality of the bulbs varies. Hue are apparently the gold standard

# carmine zodiac I call zha permit in developer tools and press the bind button on the sensor

Ok, to make sure (or at least it is what works for me) that they stay connected. Go to the Configuration > Integrations > Zigbee Home Automate (ZHA) > Click on devices, where you have a number with the devices that you have connected. There you will see at the end your coordinator as zigbee coordinator as EZSP = ... something here. You have the same one as me. Click on your coodinator and there you will see one extra option "ADD DEVICES VIA THIS DEVICE", when you click there, your network will add a device only through that device (it could be a router also). To almost make sure that your device stays connected add it this way, or throught the closest router (the light bulb). You can try first to the bulb, but directly, this way you force the network and later to the coordinator. This way worked for me, hopefully it will work for you

I added a SEA801-ZIGBEE thermostat with deCONZ, and it exposed a climate device to Hassio. However, there are a few issues:

  • max temperature reported is 35 even though the device max is 30
  • switching between heat/off works, but hassio doesn't report the state properly
  • the temperature is 29C even though it's only 21C inside.
#

is there a way to configure which temperature sensor to use for the thermostat?

brittle maple
carmine zodiac
#

Can I see if both are connected to the same node?

dry fossil
#

Not convinced of what exactly?

forest arrow
#

I have a very basic question that I cannot find the answer to: I have a SONOFF SNZB-03 - ZigBee Motion Sensor and it says it is a motion sensor, I am assuming it is NOT using PIR? So it is only looking for movement so if a bird flies by a high window I have, it would trigger the sensor?

dry fossil
#

One is sending more frequently because it sees changes. The other is reporting less frequently because it's not.

#

Almost every motion sensor is PIR. If it truly tracked movement, that would be a camera, with pretty impressive embedded image processing.

forest arrow
#

ok thanks, will monitor for a few days to see how it goes

dry fossil
#

Do you have it indoors and you want to track motion outdoors? 🤔

forest arrow
#

No I was going to leave it in my living room and have it alert if there is motion while I am away

#

But I have a big window up high on my ceiling and was concerned that it would trigger the sensor if a bird or something flew by

dry fossil
#

It shouldn't. They work by sending out beams of IR and watching what bounces back. If the 'reflections' change, there's motion.

#

I'd be surprised if it picks anything up from outside. The risk with having a window in view is it some other source of IR shines in on the sensor. Reflections off cars and stuff like that.

forest arrow
#

yeah so the window in question is too high for that, it is up about 12 feet on the ceiling

#

on the wall, not ceiling

#

but close to the ceiling

#

I do have a sliding glass door, but the blinds are closed on that and will be if we are ever away from home

carmine zodiac
#

One is definitely reporting more often and the other less often as a result of some configuration

dry fossil
#

Please stop tagging me on every frigging response.

carmine zodiac
#

Ok

dry fossil
#

I don't care why one of them is reporting less frequently. I explained what could cause it. The rest is your problem to figure out.

carmine zodiac
#

That's what I'm here to get help with...

dry fossil
#

Your graph clearly shows greater fluctuations on the one that reports more frequently. That's your answer.

#

No-one here has physical access to your devices to troubleshoot the sensors within.

#

If you think there's something wrong with one, RMA it.

carmine zodiac
#

Anyone else have any insights?

#

#2 is reporting every 15 minutes, to the second. It's impossible that the humidity is only changing in a detectable amount every 900 seconds

dry fossil
#

...

#

This is normal. Report infrequently when there's nothing to say. Report frequently when something significant happens.

#

We've done this already.

carmine zodiac
#

It's fine, don't trouble yourself

austere patio
#

I've found those sensors to be quite noisy

carmine zodiac
#

Ahh

#

Thank you

austere patio
#

Well, the one that I have hooked up at the moment

#

It sends attribute reports very frequently

#

Usually fluctuating around some temperature, while the Aqara sensors just send ones every once in a while, resulting in a smooth graph

carmine zodiac
#

How long does the battery last?

austere patio
#

For Aqara sensors, maybe two years if they're kept indoors

#

Dunno about the Sonoffs, I haven't had mine running long enough to run down a battery

carmine zodiac
#

Cool

#

Well thanks for answering my question

austere patio
#

Dunno about your specific case though

#

It could be some manufacturing defect or something, they're configured with the same attribute reporting settings

#

Are you using ZHA or Zigbee2mqtt?

carmine zodiac
#

Zha

#

I'll play with re-pairing

dry fossil
#

So you're suggesting an RMA may be in order?

#

Re-pairing won't change how frequently an end device reports. That logic is entirely on its chip.

carmine zodiac
#

I have a sudden craving to re-pair these over and over again

austere patio
#

That's only Aqara

#

Normal devices are configured to report every min/max interval with a specific change

#

But it's hardcoded

#

(by the integration, not in the device)

#

So if you "configure" a sensor to report at least once a second and at most once a second, it will send you reports once a second

dry fossil
#

TIL sensors can be configured to override hardcoded logic.

austere patio
#

It's only hardcoded by the integration when setting up attribute reports

#

Actually, lemme check if you can do this within ZHA using cluster commands

dry fossil
#

How do the cluster commands wake the sleeping device if it's sleeping?

dry fossil
#

It's conceivable. After all...

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic

austere patio
#

When you send a message to a sleeping end device, it's retained by its parent until the sleeping end device wakes up and checks for new messages

#

They wake up pretty frequently, like a few times a minute

sour shadow
#

That's interesting...

austere patio
#

In theory, anyways. Aqara just doesn't.

dry fossil
#

Why would they wake the network card if there's nothing to report? I thought they prioritised battery conservation above all else.

sour shadow
#

None of my Konke devices wake that often either 😄

#

Or my Hue dimmer - at least none report it

#

Maybe they wake, check for messages, and fall asleep immediately without sending anything?

#

ISTR that's kind of how Z-Wave's Beam works

#

Looks like the Sonoff/eWeLink wake up every 30s to check

#

Or at least as often as they report attribute changes

dry fossil
amber gull
#

Yeah, my centralite stuff wakes up within a few seconds

austere patio
#

So they first enter into some sort of fast polling after joining and check in every second for a minute or so, and then slowly poll later on

amber gull
#

Of any target ZCL command

dry fossil
#

That's outlets and lights though, right? I'm not familiar with the brand.

amber gull
#

no, it's battery powered sensors -- they resold centralite under diff brand (Iris) and directly

dry fossil
#

Ah, gotcha.

amber gull
#

The ones I have rock a CR123A or CR2 I think so they can afford to be a bit more chatty

austere patio
#

Doesn't look like there's a trivial way to configure attribute reporting directly from within ZHA

#

But maybe the Sonoff temp sensors are a good candidate for a larger minimum change value

amber gull
#

What are you trying to change? The threshold?

mellow geode
#

I guess that's an easy way to run ZHA over Ethernet (instead of WiFi with the Sonoff Bridge).

amber gull
#

Well, tube has gateway options almost ready, including a wired cc2652 gateway that is z2m and zha compatible

HI Guys i am getting a Sonoff Bridge to flash with Tasomta but i also currently have a IKEA Hub. Would i be able to use the IKEA hub as a repeater or would i have to shut it off and start using the Sonoff?

Hi. i don't know if people here is familiar with zigbee2mqtt

#

I bought a usb adapter (Slaesh's CC2652RB stick), but I'd like to check which version of the firmware it includes

#

(it does not seem to work by default with zigbee2mqtt)

mellow geode
#

At least the ZZH sticks (similar to the Slaesh stick) only come with a testing firmware that blinks the LEDs.

vale dirge
#

In theory, when I bought it, I could select that it was already flashed with the zigbee2mqtt firmware

#

Do you know if there's a way to check the included version of the firmware before flashing another one?

mellow geode
#

Since I'm not using zigbee2mqtt and I don't know if that prints the version in the logs or something like that, no.

ZHA - Is there anything I need to do to successfully have both a nortek/gocontrol HUSBZB-1 and a Conbee 2 on my system? I don't need (or want) Zigbee enabled on the USBZB-1; I'm trying to switch over to the Conbee, but it looks like ZHA is maybe confused? I only see "Add devices via this device" on my old USBZB-1 - which shouldn't even be configured?? I changed the ZHA config to point to the new one. (and it indicates that - showing /dev/serial/by-id/conbee stuff )

#

I might just have to pull the older HUSBZB-1; the only reason I'm keeping it is for Z-Wave, and I only have one Z-Wave device as it stands. /:

amber gull
#

No, nothing else required -- I run with the HUSBZB-1 in Z-wave only

#

You might just have a vestigial entry for the HUSBZB-1 as a zigbee coordinator, but it won't hurt anything

worldly jungle
#

(I might be able to blacklist the relevant driver? Seems fiddly at best)

amber gull
#

To add devices go Config > Integrations > ZHA > "Add device" (in bottom right corner)

worldly jungle
#

Well, I haven't been able to pair anything afte rputting it into pairing mode, and only the HUSBZB-1 shows "Add devices via this device" on its properties. (Though maybe the Conbee 2 just doesn't have that element?)

#

Walt_H - I've done so, it sits, spins, etc. Not impossible that it's a problem with the Zigbee device I was trying to pair, but I did successfully reset it. (Hue bulb, previously associated with the HUSBZB-1, but I did the "Hue dimmer remote - ON/OFF hold - blinky blinky" process)

#

Does anyone with a Conbee know if the "add devices via this device" option shows up on the device properties? It may be a bit of a wild goose chase if that's just not part of the UI implemented for that device

amber gull
#

You'll probably want to post your pairing log somewhere

#

Go through the add process and hit "Show logs" in upper right

#

There have been a few conbee bugs where it doesn't talk on the network after a restart -- you might be hitting that

#

Why did you migrate from the HUSBZB-1?

worldly jungle
#

Known issues with it and the Lutron Z3 dimmer knob - apparently the firmware in the HUSBZB-1 has intermittent trouble with button-presses; I would describe it as "it occasionally works."

amber gull
#

Ah yes, EM3581 doesn't process group frames if the coordinator is not part of the group

worldly jungle
#

That's the one!

#

I don't know nearly enough low-level stuff with Zigbee to understand the finer details, though I'll imagine it's like an ethernet switch ignoring tagged VLAN frames or such (;

#

And, thanks for pointing out the logging option, I'm checking now. Though NOW i'm doing it remotely, so, I can't reset devices to pairing mode, sigh

#

I can cycle power to an unpaired one though!

#

I wonder if I should blow up my zigbee database from ZHA - if that's a thing?

#

So far, all my logs show is one instance of [0x0000:zdo] ZDO request ZDOCmd.Mgmt_Permit_Joining_req: [60, <Bool.false: 0>] per "Search"

austere patio
#

Nothing like that is stored in the database, it's effectively a device cache

#

But if you delete it your network will be very unhappy

worldly jungle
#

That was what I essentially understood - though, if switching adapters, said cache seemed potentially not good?

#

Well, my network is perfectly unhappy as it is, but fortunately it's only a handful of devices - maybe 10

austere patio
#

If you aren't seeing any indication of a new device joining the network in the log, the database isn't really affecting anything at the moment

#

When a new device joins that's already in the database, it won't have to be fully discovered so it will only speed things up

worldly jungle
#

It's enough lines that maybe I should pastebin it? I'm not sure what the ettiquite is here.

austere patio
#

The log?

worldly jungle
#

Actually just these two relevant ones:
[0x0000:zdo] ZDO request ZDOCmd.Mgmt_Lqi_rsp: [<Status.SUCCESS: 0>, Neighbors(entries=0, start_index=0, neighbor_table_list=[])] [0x0000:zdo] Unsupported ZDO request:ZDOCmd.Mgmt_Lqi_rsp

austere patio
#

Yeah that's normal and I think just a coincidence that it's showing up in the joining log

worldly jungle
#

You know, maybe I'll just power cycle some stuff.

#

I suppose I could "pull" the HUSBZB-1 from the VM; I can't physically remove it until I'm not working on this remotely, though, so it will still have power & presumably be a functional coordinator for the devices I didn't unpair

#

Oh, speaking of - is it possible to unpair them from HA / with ZHA? I could potentially return my config back to the old one with the HUSB.. device and unpair various devices

austere patio
#

You can ask the device to leave the network but the networks formed by your two sticks are completely independent

amber gull
#

And you can look at uhubctl if supported by your hardware to kill power to the HUSBZB-1 -- probably not supported though

#

but HUSBZB-1 shouldn't be really interfering, it will just be online as a separate network / PAN ID

Has anyone been able to update firmware on the zigbee dongles like sleash and electrorama directly from ha? I get as far as starting to flash it ends with an error firmware is intel hex

austere patio
#

Did you install the intelhex Python package?

#

I wouldn't do it directly from within HA if you have any other environment available. Window, Linux, anything that can run Python 3.7+ will work

cerulean thorn
#

doh no, now its a new error bytearray index out of range

#

the reason why I would like to try is to not have to climb and get the stick

austere patio
#

Can you paste the full traceback (or upload it to a pastebin if it's too long?)

cerulean thorn
#

how to do a traceback again?

austere patio
#

Just paste everything the script spits out

#

The traceback is the error message and all the lines above it

#

Are you running cc2538-bsl.py -p /dev/serial/by-id/*slaesh* -evw /path/to/firmware.hex?

cerulean thorn
#

yes it is as in the instructions

austere patio
#

It looks like you specified the .hex file twice

#

Looks like cc2538-bsl.py swallows all exceptions and just prints out the error message string 😦 No tracebacks...

cerulean thorn
#

ops it didnt change anything

#

it gives one of the three errors

#

now its bytearray out of range

#

strange the error is different

#

for each time im running it

austere patio
#

Can you run it with -V (uppercase v)?

#

Also, are you 100% sure that no other application is trying to use this serial device, like Home Assistant?

cerulean thorn
#

needed python-magic

#

so to do it from ha those two packages need install

#

is it possible to see firmware version in ha?

austere patio
#

Not in the version of zigpy-znp included in HA

#

I think I might be able to put this into the coordinator device's info within ZHA

cerulean thorn
#

that would be helpful to know when it need update

austere patio
#

Did you perform an NVRAM backup before updating?

cerulean thorn
#

no it was a clean stick

#

just going to test it along with deconz

silent lintel
#

On another note, is that the best way to post a log? seems insane to have to scroll really far right to read

silent flower
#

Hi, I have a BW-SS7 relay and I haven't figured out how to reset it to pair mode with another coordinator, do you know anyone?

cerulean thorn
#

on ZHA should it show anything in the log while detecting? I tried it now with the sleash but nothing came up. Will try to run in debug mode now

#

has anyone seen this error before?

austere patio
#

What does your home assistant config's zha section look like?

#

You likely don't need to specify any config options at all and can omit the zha key entirely

yes I had to many options there. I just reduced it to channel and it works

that error doesn't sound related to your hardware, it seems the script thinks -evw is the name of the serial port

I don't know why though, because I don't know anything about that script. It just doesn't seem to like your command line options

mighty river

Is there an other way to flash the stick?

Hi all! My Zigbee2MQTT has fallen apart on me, used to work perfectly but now barely any devices are communicating - some are, mostly those close to the coordinator. C2531: "meta":{"maintrel":3,"majorrel":2,"minorrel":6,"product":0,"revision":20190608,"transportrev":2},"type":"

@noble lion that coordinator is fine, for 30 devices and a 40m2 apartment

Yes

Through all the layers

#

Or just drop the VM and run containers directly

If proxmox supports it

fallow sphinx

it has its own version of containers and you could thireticaly install docker on it directly but having it in a vm lets me backup and migrate all the docker config stuff quickley and easaley

jolly narwhal
#

@fallow sphinx no idea how proxmox works, but anywhere I can run docker native (truenas and Debian) backup is just copying the config dir, adding a VM just adds overhead and complexity

greetings folks, so I am using the sonoff zigbee bridge and I have 9 door sensors and 2 motion sensors. I see them in Home Assistant but this morning I show one of the Motion Sensors as Unavailable and not sure what to do to get it visible again, but that led me to a question, should all of my zigbee devices be in some type of zone so they are communicating through one another?

dry fossil
#

Battery powered sensors can't route traffic.

forest arrow
#

good to know

#

I am new to zigbee so try to absorb it

#

devices arbitrarily becoming unavailable is not a good thing for a security system

forest arrow
#

So I reset the motion sensor and pointed it at a wall so it would not detect movement and it kept going a minute then would immediately clear and then detect again. For a test i put it back in its box and it is now clear but as soon as I open the box lid, it shows detected and begins the same behavior. Could this be a defective motion sensor? I don't see many ways to test them

jolly narwhal
#

You monster

@forest arrow you have 11 different battery powered sensors, probably spread around in different rooms around the house. Without some powered mains devices, like light bulbs or straight up router/repeaters, you are unlikely to get a healthy Zigbee mesh for your devices.

is there anyway I could have two coordinators on the same network with ZHA? It would be nice to add my dev coordinator to my main network for developing (I don't have many spare devices)

sour shadow
#

One network, one coordinator

#

That's it

jolly narwhal
#

You can always have a spare coordinator with most integrations

#

Also, if you ran zigbee2mqtt you could utilize all your devices in both the Dev and main instance at the same time yes

#

Can you do that with zha?

#

Without bridging HA instances

golden vessel
#

you can have two instances of z2m, with two sticks in a single net?

jolly narwhal

You can have two z2m and one broker yes

#

And one or two ha instances using that broker

golden vessel
#

broker as in mqtt broker?

jolly narwhal
#

Yes

golden vessel
#

how can the two sticks talk with the same mesh?

jolly narwhal
#

They don't, you said Dev, that implies a seperate instance

#

If you are sane ;-)

#

Not like people who Dev on prod

golden vessel
jolly narwhal
#

Yes

#

Depends on what part you are using as dev

#

If you have one Dev and one prod HA, fine use all devices in both

#

If you mean a Dev and prod Zigbee2mqtt instance, pair Dev devices to Dev and use those in the prod or Dev instance of HA

#

All over one single broker

golden vessel
#

I was talking about ZHA... so the equivalent would be dev z2m instance, and not dev HA

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a recommendation for a new smarthome, I’m planning to use home assistant in combination with diyhue and want to buy some zigbee lamps I’m in doubt between a conbee 2 and the zigbee2mqtt approach, what is recommended? I might want to research creating zigbee appliances after a while so that’s something to take in mind

mellow geode
#

Also, is there any way to remove these "ghost devices" that are left in HA now because ha_device_registry.async_remove_device wasn't called?
(other than removing it from .storage/core.device_registry manually and restarting Home Assistant because restarting ZHA always takes it bit with ~80 devices (and also polling all lights lol))

#

Or, is it possible to have Home Assistant re-read .storage/core.device_registry (without restarting it)?

jolly narwhal
#

@stone halo I can gladly recommend zigbee2mqtt with a TI coordinator

#

Never buy 2531

diyHue doesn't seem to be that low-level, it doesn't talk to the Zigbee hardware directly and goes through either HA or Z2M

# stone halo How does the popp stack up with the conbee?

with the conbee you always need to use deconz to change some settings (like channel) and do updates (which are closed source)
the popp can be managed trough the cli with some simple utilities. and has kind of open source firmware 🙂
I cant say much about the diferences in chips' capabilities though

conbee works with zha too afaik tho

ill try to find a cc2652 variant first but thanks for the recommendation! how is the range on the popp?

yes it does. I've used a conbee 1 for a long time before getting the elelabs

jolly narwhal
#

Or just do a ti chip and z2m that lets you change the channel in the config file, and update firmware from a cli @golden vessel 🤣

Hi guys, sorry for the question which is probably stupid... I have bound an IKEA tradfri remote to a lightlink group via ZHA, as soon as I bound it I lost ZHA events... I have seen the issue at https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/31734 which suggests to bind the coordinator to the same group to get the events back... Problem is I cannot for the life of me find a way to bind the coordinator to the group, it does not appear in the list of entities to bind to the group nor it's got the manage clusters button. I am sure I am missing something stupid... Anyone's got any idea?

Hi all! I just migrated from deCONZ to ZHA and I get no readout on my motion sensors. Should I use another entity than I did when I used deCONZ?

mellow geode
#

Which motion sensors are you using?

tardy tapir
#

Philips Hue and Aqara

#

should I use the motion or the occupancy entity?

And one more question; can I rename the ZHA group entities?

you can try enabling more debug logs (check ZHA doc page), so that we can try to see what's going on during pairing

not an option. fam will kill me

Quirk: zhaquirks.lidl.cct.CCTLight - but I get a color wheel

cerulean thorn
#

Is it a way to create a custom quirk and try it directly in live HA?

mellow geode
# fervent storm Quirk: zhaquirks.lidl.cct.CCTLight - but I get a color wheel

Huh, that's weird. These devices need the Lidl CCTLight quirk because they actually say they have RGB capabilities (even though they obviously don't).
The quirk overrides the capabilities to only show the color temperature slider. This was confirmed working by multiple users and the quirk hasn't been changed since. Which HA version are you running?

fervent storm
#

running latest HA

#

I have RGB bulbs too and they work great

#

I also have some E27 bulbs and they show the color temp slider as expected in HA

#

they too are CCT bulbs

but the ones that are E14 seem to show the color wheel

mellow geode

But the quirk is also applied to these E14 lights showing the color wheel?

fervent storm

Yeah, the quirk is also applied to these. It shouldn't show the color wheel then.
Can you go to Manage Clusters on the E14 bulb that's not working correctly.
At the top, select the LidlCCTColorCluster cluster. At the second dropdown menu, select color_capabilities (id: 0x400a) and click Read Zigbee-Attribute (or something along those lines) and send the output in the upper text here.

Please check if the color temperature slider now shows up. If not, also try to restart Home Assistant and see if it then shows up

thank you

#

do i need to do that for all the other E14 bulbs?

mellow geode
#

It's possible that you paired these bulbs when you were on an older Home Assistant version (I think 2020.1.x? or even older)

fervent storm
#

no... all done today

mellow geode
#

Huh, really?

#

For the other bulbs, you need to read the attribute again (so that it outputs bitmap16.16 again)

#

and after you've done that for all, you can restart Home Assistant.

#

Reading this attributes refreshes the cache for the color_capabilities attribute which is overriden by the quirk when reading it.

I am thinking of building a ZigPy quirk for the IKEA scene button but I have two questions : 1. Is there already someone working on it? 2.

One of my snzb-02 keeps disconnecting less than 1 day after pairing it (zha). It starts by not sending any data for a while and my history chart shows a flat line, with the entity saying it last reported x hours ago. After a few more hours of this, the entity says unavailable and nothing more appears on the chart.

I've re-added it via zha permit, then add devices via this device (zigbee coordinator), then removed the device and re-added again through both methods. No matter what, it stops sending readings after a while.

My second snzb-02 has not had any issues. Bought both at the same time.

Stick is HUSBZB-1. I put both sensors on a table in the same orientation so the rssi would be the same (about -85). One disconnected, the other didn't. There are also repeaters in the same room and adjacent rooms.

mellow geode
#

I'm not sure if this is the issue but other people also report similar issues with the Sonoff Temp/Humidity sensor

carmine zodiac
#

Is there any extra configuration I can check?

#

Or return it as faulty?

mellow geode
#

Are the model ids the same for both devices?

#

For example, one of my Sonoff motion sensors has MS01 and the newer one just 66666.

carmine zodiac
#

Where do I find that?

#

First thing under device info?

mellow geode
#

If you go into Settings -> Integrations -> Zigbee Home Automation: Configure -> Devices -> select the device then Zigbee Signature

carmine zodiac
#

Ok

mellow geode
#

(It's also on the device page but the signature specifies what is what and also has more detailed information)

cerulean thorn
#

Do I need to delete an re-pair when I added a quirk? Or is it possible to force reinterview?

carmine zodiac
#

Let me re-add again and tell you, it's gone

#

What's the ideal way to add to zha?

mellow geode
mellow geode
carmine zodiac
#

So I know of zha permit and adding via the zigbee coordinator

mellow geode
#

You don't need to remove the device from ZHA. Just reset the device (pressing the button on the Sonoff) and also permitting joins for every device.

#

Oh

#

I normally just do it via the UI for all devices.

#

Any compliant devices will pick a good router/parent (only Xiaomi/Aqara devices really need permitting joins via some router/coodinator as they pick the first thing they see)

carmine zodiac
#

Is that "add devices via this device"?

mellow geode
#

Yes.

carmine zodiac
#

Ok

mellow geode
#

Normally you don't need that.

#

To allow joins for all routers (and the coordinator): click on Integrations -> ZHA -> "Add device" at the bottom right

carmine zodiac
#

When adding, should the sensor be close to the stick or close to the room it will be in?

mellow geode
#

To the room where it's gonna be in.

#

However, Sonoff sensors should (since they are Zigbee 3.0) pick a new router (parent) if they are too far from the other one.

#

So, I'd try to put it in the room where it's gonna sit in. Click on Add device on the ZHA integration page. Then reset the device.

#

If that sensor is faulty (or running bad firmware), I'd return it because some other people also reported having issues with Sonoff sensors.

#

But again, you can also check if the signatures are identical between both devices.

#

Is it enough debug? I’ve only enabled the radio debug.

Let’s see.

mellow geode
#

Unrelated to the issue of duplicated frames: can you also upload the signature of the shortcut button?

quick hare
mellow geode
#

You can just go the ZHA page of the device and click Zigbee-signature or something like that

quick hare
#

Ah got it

mellow geode
#

(It’s also in the logs when joining a network but that’s always a bit of a hassle)

quick hare
#

Just sniffed the network. It look like a duplicated frame to my understanding. The counter in the ZCL is fixed. The the lower layers it increments. Not sure what that means : https://pasteboard.co/JPp8ddw.png

austere patio
#

Hmm, then in theory you shouldn't be getting duplicate events?

cerulean thorn
#

Im a bit confused as its not many examples. If I add the tuya whitelabel blinds, should I use WindowCovering or TuyaSmartRemoteOnOffCluster

quick hare
austere patio
#

I think that should already be happening. Can you enable debug logging for everything related to ZHA and upload like a minute of logs?

But on the application level it does increment.

Really a pitty of them for doing that.

austere patio
#

No, I think this is fine?

#

Hmm, I am not seeing any code to deal with duplicate ZCL messages that have the same TSN

quick hare
#

Ok @mellow geode your quirk works. 🙂 @austere patio , unfortunately, with the quirk provided by @mellow geode , it still send’s 6-7 events with the same TSN. 😦

#

Which is not surprising after all.

#

@mellow geode Mhh, I see you doubled the power for the device but it is still at 50%. Strange.

mellow geode
#

Perhaps it needs some time to send a new report

#

I guess re-pairing could help but I would just wait

quick hare
#

Ah you are right I think it is cached.

#

Look like it’s already on the latest firmware. 😦

austere patio
#

I can't find anything in the zigpy issue tracker about this problem so you may want to open an issue about it with your debug log

#

It seems a little unexpected for the messages to not be deduplicated. Maybe there's a reason for it.

quick hare
#

If my memory is good, I have no other IKEA remote who does this. Very strange.

quick hare
verbal shale
mellow geode
#

I doubt that's the case but since you're using the HUSBZB-1, did you ever upgrade the firmware on it? @quick hare

Upgrading EZSP-based sticks should also retain any configuration (and not wipe the whole stick).

Can confirm as well that it retained the config. 🙂

If you have another coordinator (perhaps just a cc2531), would you wanna try if that has the same issues with the button?

Is there a cheap version of it easy to flash that I could buy?

I think you always need a "flasher".

#

Also, "MattWestb" answered on your GitHub issue but I sometimes have a bit of trouble understanding him.

#

Could you try unbinding the remote from the Zigbee coordinator?

#

Via manage clusters and device binding

#

Press a button on the remote and unbind from the coordinator

#

Probably won’t help though but perhaps worth a shot

I’m not sure if this is a zigbee question or ha generally. I have an aqara contact sensor on my dishwasher. The only place I can put it that it is hidden and doesn’t get hit with a lot of steam means the contact is closed when the dishwasher is fully open. Basically I’m wondering if there’s a way to reverse the reporting of closed/open state or if I just have to do a template sensor.

Unfortunately, still have 7 events. 😦

mellow geode
#

But at this point, that's just guessing.

#

MattWestB mentioned that it sends unicast instead of broadcasts. So maybe binding it to the 0x0000 (or maybe even another group?) would change these to broadcasts (that no longer duplicate?)

#

(When binding or unbinding, click the button on the remote first. Then bind or unbind)

quick hare
#

WHAT THE.. @mellow geode Just unbinded from the coordinator and we’re now at just 4 events!

mellow geode
#

lol

quick hare
#

I’m cooking, will unbind from the rest to see..

mellow geode
#

How many mains powered devices (routers => smart bulbs, smart plugs) are in your Zigbee network?

#

Can you try to remove the device and then reset it.

#

Then re-pair it with the shortcut button quirk "installed" (while pairing).

#

That should then bind it to the 0x0000 group.

#

This should start producing broadcasts instead of unicasts messages.

Anyone have any experience with extending a Zigbee network to a detached garage? It's about 40 feet away, with a couple plaster walls in the way. Looking for any and all ideas.

dry fossil
#

You have two options - stick a powered repeater halfway or use Z2M/Z2T over there and send the comms across WiFi/ethernet.

naive ivy
#

I'm going to have to test and see how well it currently works with the repeater bulbs in my kitchen; it's the closest room to the garage. I don't expect it to be too reliable since WiFi wasn't. If not I think I'll make the leap to Z2M.

#

Since I do have ethernet buried out to the garage already; it's where I run my business

#

I had forgotten that Z2M can allow for a 'split' like that. Thanks for that knowledge

Just did. Unfortunately it returns to 7 events. Iv’e tried to unbind from clusters & all devices, only the coordinator seem’s to make a change from 7 to 5 events.

I‘m pretty certain that won’t change anything, as it’s not even used in the Python file
