How do you mess up putting CC2652P + CP2102N with an antenna on a board? πŸ˜…

sour shadow
#

Easily, apparently

violet dagger
#

and also, plenty ways

#

having buggy firmware with no bootloader also counts

vestal atlas
#

Hehe, yeah I ordered so I'll let you know πŸ˜„

violet dagger
#

electrolama also has CC2652P sticks in production

cold obsidian
#

Any Idea, what does "pin-headers (not soldered)" means at the checkout-process of slae.sh? What for are those pin-headers

violet dagger
#

for flashing using the programmer

sour shadow
#

Which you shouldn't need, unless you mess up in style

cold obsidian
#

ok, good to know, thanks.
It seems it is pre-flashed with zigbee2mqtt. Are there circumstances where I need to upgrade the firmware later on? And would this even work if plugged in via USB?

sour shadow
#

Yes, often, and it's well documented on how to flash over USB

violet dagger
#

also it cannot be preflashed with zigbee2mqtt

#

Anyone know if it’s possible to set the cycle speed of the colorloop effect of a zigbee light via zha ?

cold obsidian
sleek dock
#

I’ve got a bunch of hue light strips I use for decorative under lighting for furniture and I often put the group in colorloop for a nearly synchronized loop, I’ve recently added a cheaper gledopto light strip to the mix and it’s color loop speed is way faster than the hue ones

#

I’d like to get them going at the same speed without having to resort to running a script to cycle them through each color because that just sounds insane lol

cold obsidian
#

To handle my first zigbee divices, I do need to flash the chip as "coordinator" right? What is the "router"-Firmware for... is it only to enhance the signal (some kind of repeater)?

sour shadow
#

See the pinned messages for how Zigbee works

#

Most mains powered devices "route" the signal, and you can flash the sticks to make them dedicated routers

#

Does anyone know if there is a known fix for the sonoff ZigBee buttons no longer sending any events when pressed?

#

Sometimes I readd them and they work for a while but lately no matter how many times I deleted and added they haven't started to work again

violet dagger
#

Nothing apart from replacing them

wispy locust
#

Oh so this is a known behavior but no one has come up with a fix?

violet dagger
#

Sonoff should fix them

wispy locust
#

Yes they should, but in the mean time it might be nice to put a disclaimer in the various device databases that people maintain for ZigBee devices

#

I would not have purchased them if I had found something like that

violet dagger
#

That someone could be you

wispy locust

I just googled the name of the database that I was thinking of and wouldn't you know it's Blackadder.com

I restored HAOS from a dell micro over to a pi4 (changed the IP etc so the pi is set up like the dell before removing the dell pc from the notwork) and once the restore was complete, I found the zigbee router devices were 'offline', although the endpoints were working fine. *Except the endpoints that are using the routers. Any tips on what I can do? Do I need to reset the powered router devices, or just give the some time to reconnect? Thanks in advance!

#

I'm using a ConBee II usb stick as the coordinator

#

Hey, can someone help me set up a Sonoff Zigbee Bridge (tasmotizer)?

sour shadow
#

Are you looking for help flashing it? Using it with ZHA/Zigbee2MQTT? Or...?

#

Nevermind, I was trying to tasmodize the bridge. It was just a wrong connection, it's working now.

But thank you for your offer.

Hello, i have a problem of range with my ZNP = Texas Instruments Z-Stack ZNP protocol: CC253x, CC26x2, CC13x2
par ZHA. He only detect around 12m but normaly his detection range is 35m. How have more power in it ? (Sorry for my horrible english)

where did you get the 35m number?

35 meters for Zigbee is ... optimistic

#

My message was a reply to someone else, I don't think you need a USB extension cable

austere patio
sour shadow
#

Somewhere in the 6 to 10 meter range is reasonable, for a typical modern house with drywall/plasterboard walls IMO

solemn ivy
austere patio
#

Try a USB extension cable if your coordinator plugs straight into a pi, it won't hurt

#

But there's no way to increase range with sensors without routers unless it's due to a discharged battery

#

What specific CC2652 coordinator are you using?

solemn ivy
austere patio
#

Are you reading the percentage or did you put in fresh batteries?

#

If it's Aqara, the percentage may not meaningfully decrease during the lifespan of the battery.

quartz robin
#

has anyone come across the zigbee2mqtt edge error (Failed to save add-on configuration, expected boolean.) I was using it and updated it and got this error, but the std zigbee2mqtt installed fine

sour shadow
#

Sounds like a bug with the add-on

quartz robin
#

that is what I thought I did try uninstall and reinstall, but did not work, luck I could full back to the std zigbee2mqtt though, but hopefully they fix it soon.

If you open an issue it's more likely to get fixed...

migrating from a LAUNCHXL-CC1352P-2 to Tube's CC2652P PoE, is there any way I can do this without re-pairing everything?

molten linden
#

ZHA or Z2M? with z2m I believe it's seamless as it will restore the backup on hand

#

with ZHA you'll need to use the zigpy-znp tools and pull a network backup then restore it to the new coordinator.

#

(thanks)

#

sorry z2m, aye I noticed since just a couple versions ago there is no need to re-pair. Changed over the serial port and now it's going through some "parsing" in the logs

So I have a weird one. Using a tube coordinator with zha that has been working for weeks. A couple of my sengleds have been falling offline, and I usually just have to turn them off/on and they will work again. Occasionally, I have to re-pair them through zha add device. I couldn't get 2 bulbs to pair, so I tried a sylvania outlet and realized that I can add anything to ZHA, it never interviews and adds

Total? Or per bulb and outlet?

foggy dragon
#

Per bulb, about 5 per outlet now too

#

the thing that sticks out to me is NWK_NO_ROUTE

foggy dragon
#

I also seem to get this message in the console, which I think has to do with the actual @molten linden coordinator. "ch341-uart ttyUSB0: failed to read modem status -110"

austere patio
#

@foggy dragon There is a firmware bug that I've seen that can sometimes cause new devices to be unable to join the network. Can you perform an NVRAM backup and a network backup? https://github.com/zigpy/zigpy-znp/blob/dev/TOOLS.md#nvram-backup (follow the installation instructions at the top of the page, depending on how you want to run it)

foggy dragon
austere patio
#

Yeah. Did you do this once before?

foggy dragon
#

I have definitely done this before. Will do this tomorrow and report back.

austere patio
#

Looks like you migrated from a Sonoff bridge two months ago. Doing the backup/restore won't hurt but if you could send me the NVRAM dump (not the network backup) before you wipe anything, I can write it to one of my coordinators and see if it's indeed that same bug, or if one of your devices is just difficult to join.

Hi all, is it possible to change the route on devices. i have some end devices connecting to other router devices which are further away from the coordinator itself. Is is possible to alter their route to optimize LQI?

I have been try to get Aquara sensor into home assistant. I have setup deconz. I'm using a conbee II on a raspberry pi. I found my conbee path via hardware and it set up with no issues. I held the button on the sensor down until the blue light flashed. Deconz times out before ever recognizing the sensors

I have the conbee 2 as well. But i use the Zigbee Home Assistant (ZHA) integration. Aquara devices work just fine with it.

I have 2 Aqara Mini switch buttons that I added to HA via DeConz. Went to Developer tools to have HA listen for deconz_event but nothing ever shows when I press the button. I can see the buttons in Phoscon but I am not seeing the deconz event when I press a button. Any ideas as to why I'm not seeing the event?

Aqara states 100 times over that you need their hub. I had troubles with all of their stuff connecting to my zigbee hub, returned all of their stuff.

#

How narrow/wide is zigbee channels in practise? Would it be ok to use channel 23,24,25 or would it be better to space it out and use 21,23,25?

sour shadow
#

See the pins - you're likely to want to avoid WiFi with a different channel choice

vestal atlas
#

The info in the pins does not go very deep, it would be nice to see some real world frequency analyzer results. I got wifi isolated from the zigbee channels already. I guess I'll have to hunt more

sour shadow
#

It will somewhat come down to the individual stick

#

At the end of the day, a good design and implementation will be very tight, and a lousy one won't. Most should resemble the diagram though - non-overlapping

Any idea why I might be seeing this error? My zigbee devices are unresponsive and googling/discord history shows up nada

Channel access failures are generally caused by interference

vestal atlas
austere patio
#

Not sure what integration you're using but you'll likely need to edit source code to get to the constant

#

How many is "many"?

vestal atlas
#

Broadcast radius? It was my understanding that routers will repeat all broadcasts 3 time each, no matter what.

austere patio
#

What integration and radio are you using?

vestal atlas
#

Im using z2m. I got over 100 routers, sniffing tells that some remotes broadcasts can take up to 1s( about, dont remember). And you can tell that messages can get slightly delayed during that time

#

cc2652rb

austere patio
#

Z2M uses 30 but I think the TI Z-Stack firmware limits it

#

Try changing that constant to something like 3 and see if that helps: DEFAULT_RADIUS: 3

vestal atlas
#

Hm, maybe i could play with thay. But really its not really a problem. And adapters are so cheap I don't see why I wouldn't just add more instead.

#

Can the coordinator really tell the other devices how many times and what it should repeat? πŸ€”

austere patio
#

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the packet has a counter that's reduced by 1 every time it's relayed

#

Once it hits zero the packet isn't broadcast again

#

If the value is too high and you have a ton of routers, in theory they could all receive the packet at once and then just take turns waiting to broadcast it again if they're really densely packed

#

You can form networks on 15/20/25/26 but one of those networks would likely be in a region of the 2.4GHz spectrum that has significantly higher interference from other sources

#

Plus you'd lose out on the ability to perform direct binding unless you shuffle your devices from network to network

vestal atlas
austere patio
#

No problem. It won't have any effect if it's a remote that's sending the message (to a group) but if you're sending a lot of group commands from the coordinator it might be something to try tweaking.

vestal atlas
#

It's the remotes causing the most issues, as its then they are pressed other messages should go out to control stuff. And if you press a button and there are any kind of delays its very noticeable. Luckily I only have a few that broadcasts their messages, so I've already put those on a separate network.

Separating between ZigBee channels is less of an issue than separating a ZigBee channels from a WiFi channel. Different ZigBee networks can coexist on the same channel. All depends on density. So one ZigBee channel separation is fine, but in practice you probably wanna stick to ZigBee channels 11, 15, 20 and 25. Iirc on channel 25 orn26 ZigBee devices should transmit with less power to avoid bleeding outside of ism band

scarlet bramble
#

Of those channels 11, 15, 20, 25, are there channels that are better than the others? If you just think of zigbee channels.

#

I know, it's zigbee

#

Well, that kinda answers the how well does it integrate at least in terms of Z2M

uncut flare
#

Oh that's interesting

scarlet bramble
#

The guy implementing it to z2m (Robert Alexa) has really put a lot of effort in all the functionality.

uncut flare
#

so how does the call for heat end up at your boiler in your setup?

#

(thanks a lot for sharing by the way)

scarlet bramble
#

Am using one of mine with an external sensor (no need for other automations than sending the temperature to the device).

sour shadow
#

Well, you'd have to make the call, using HA

scarlet bramble
#

Well, there's just central heating which is on when the outside temperature is less than 18 degrees. The TRV just open/closes the valve.

uncut flare
#

So you have shared central heating in an apartment building?

scarlet bramble
mellow geode
scarlet bramble
uncut flare
#

I know about that. We have some cities over here where it's installed.

#

We call it stadsverwarming, this litteraly means city heating.

#

My setup will use a natural gas powered boiler

#

So I guess your setup uses a circulation pump and a heat exchanger.

scarlet bramble
#

Yes, but the TRV:s are not communicating with the heating central. In that way it is "dumb" and is just opening/closing the valve.

#

Basically the system is high jacking the outdoor sensor, sending false values to the central depending on what the indoor sensor value is. But it's not open source, and not zigbee...

but until the community gets behind a dedicated firmware for Sonoff ZIGBEE 3.0 USB DONGLE PLUS, it won’t become the mainstream DIY coordinator

The LQI comparison is also kinda useless without bidirectional tests, I don't believe the CC2652P has any better RX performance than the CC2652R.

Hi peeps, I'm having issues with two Osram+ Zigbee Plugs. Around once a week homeassistant loses connection to one or both of them and won't find them again until I re-pair them. The third one I have is unaffected, they're all in the same power strip.
I have a Conbee 2 USB Stick which is used by the native zigbee intergration in homeassistant.

How could I debug something like this? It shouldn't be range as the plugs are only ~10m away, almost in line of sight.
I used to have a similar issue when I used the deconz software. After I switched to HAs implementation it stopped completely, but recently it started happening again, though less frequent, but it's still annoying having to re-pair them

I tried changing fz.battery to fz.battery_200 in the external converter and restarting zigbee2mqtt but it is still 198%.

hi
hopefully somebody can help me out by shopping zigbee products which are supported by deconz. I have a flush socket where a common 2 way light switch is installed. left one controls lights and right ones controls lights too. do you know any zigbee switch I can install into the flush socket to control both lights separately? common light switch should be used too to turn power on/off.

What version of Z2M are you running?

Guys, newbie question (of sorts) here. Is there such a thing as a device handler for HA? Running HA on a Pi4. I had it all working before on the same pi, but appears it killed the SD card. Have rebuilt and also made a clean build on an external SSD. This one sees my smart things motion sensors, but not my inner sp222 smart plugs. Plugged in my old smartthings router and it can find the innr plugs so I am thinking its a "driver" issue. Any thoughts?

#

latest build of HA OS, Ti zigbee controller, Pi 4, approve 2.5' to usb cable and a kingston ssd. I have tried zigbee2mqtt, rebuilt and tried zha both no joy. The will interview the plug, but never complete

#

everytime i completely stop the home assistant server and boot it back up i have the problem that i almost cant get it connected to the coordinator again

#

Z2M is just not connecting for some reason

#

and then all of a sudden its connected again...

austere patio
#

When you say "but not my inner sp222 smart plugs", do you mean that you're unable to join the device to your network? Is the router you're trying to join within range of the coordinator?

#

OrΒ within range of another router on your network?

Were they previously on your network?

#

The plugs start the interview, but keep timing out. However the plugs work fine on a the smartthings hub

austere patio
#

That's progress

flat hinge

which is why I was wondering if it is some kind of "driver" issue

#

the plugs worked with the HA for over a year previously and I am really a windows guy so if I cracked this before I have long forgotten how lol

austere patio

ZHA has device handlers but those wouldn't prevent it from completing the basic device initialization

obsidian sandalBOT
#

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), and the HUSBZB-1 uses an older chipset so should be avoided.

It has a serial bootloader but it doesn't let you erase all flash, only re-flash the firmware portion

Is your network large enough for it to be inconvenient to re-join all the devices?

no, I have moved home and left half of the devices behind, this is why I went clean install

Do you have access to a second computer with Python 3.8 or above installed?

flat hinge

no, but can install. honestly tho, if replacing that controller will remove a lot of the pain, I am happy to wait a few days for a new device (and glad I asked as I almost ordered a conbee 2 lol)

are any of the devices on that list "out of the box" ready to use?

CC2652 coordinators can be flashed with a simple script, you don't need external hardware to do it

sour shadow
#

Any CC2652 based either will be, or can be flashed without tools

flat hinge
#

ah...brill. So any recommendations in particular? would be nice to have one thats contained and not with the pcb on display

sour shadow
#

Where in the world are you?

flat hinge
#

uk

sour shadow
#

ZZH!

flat hinge
#

out of stock 😦

#

they have a waiting list

sour shadow
#

Yeah, there's a shortage of chips...

flat hinge
#

figures, if ford and tesla are short of stock, so will everyone be

sour shadow
#

Also, a lot of people have found out the hard way about the CC2531 sticks and are buying CC2652 sticks to replace them ablobjoy

flat hinge
#

it is frustrating as it was working, but since moving house there is a chance it was damaged of course

austere patio
#

Do you have a powered USB hub?

flat hinge
#

have signed up to the waiting list for the zzh

#

I may do...let me check

austere patio
#

Try plugging the CC2531 into that (or the USB SSD)

flat hinge
#

ah....good shout....found one, just need to find the psu for it (again house filled with yet to be unpacked boxes....and I should prob use my spare time to do that and not mess around with the zigbees)

#

no appears to be SOL on that psu

#

so I will just have to wait for the zzh to come back into stock

austere patio
#

I think this is caused by the USB SSD, the ZZH is likely to have the same problem

flat hinge
#

you say that, but I have the issue with the ssd unpluged also

#

having gone to a second SD card and clean build

austere patio
#

Hmm, that is interesting. Similar problem was reported with I think a ZZH and the USB SSD was to blame

flat hinge
#

so I am not sure its that....plus the Pi is using an official psu 15w

austere patio
#

The ZZH won't be anything but an upgrade in terms of performance so if you aren't desperate for a new stick, it'll probably be easier to wait for it to get back in stock

flat hinge
#

yeah...been in the house for 8 weeks now, have not fully thought out me plans

austere patio
#

There are a few things to try to reset the CC2531 as much as possible without the appropriate flashing hardware but they take a little work to set up

flat hinge
#

yeah I will wait, but thank you for all the help given, I will get the ZZH when in stock and come back to bother you all then πŸ™‚

#

thanks for everything tho πŸ™‚

austere patio
#

No problem. Hopefully the zzh will be a lot smoother for you once it's up and running.

Hey guys, i have brought a dds238-2 zigbee to integrate into my HA, but it do not appear in the zigbee2mqtt for sme reason. did someone ever used it ?

violet dagger
#

what is the manufacturer id?

quartz flume
#

Whats is that?

violet dagger
#

its visible in the logs when you're trying to pair the device

quartz flume
#

Ledt me try to see it, because it never pair in Z2M

violet dagger
#

it should attempt to pair then say its an unknown device

#

if it doesn't even try to pair you might've not put it into pairing mode

quartz flume
#

WEell, just paired... after some hours of headeach

#

Thanks blakadder, but it seems a technician problem

violet dagger
#

solved!

quartz flume
#

just need some one to cares

quartz flume
#

@violet dagger found the problem was the cc2532 stick, used another one and worked flawless. Any ideia, if could be the stick it self or a firmware written badly? For all i see its the stick it self. But it kinda works

blazing tartan
#

Does anyone know of a zigbee switch that is NOT Sonoff (dont have good luck with these.)

Its for 2 light switches in my garage

quartz flume
#

Do cc2531 stick have any kind of limitation with devices? I need to replace a cc2532 stick from china with hush and in my country i can access only cc2531 from sonoff

near echo
quartz flume
#

Yes, 2652 sorry, i was confusid

#

I have installed 3 cc2652 all worked fine, this last one came with problem. I know that because of another cc2652 which everything just works. But this one, just won't.

near echo
#

You have 3 co-ordinators?

quartz flume
#

Would a 2351 works with 15 components

#

I have installed for other people

#

In home i have just 2 one i'm prepparing for a person, and mine

near echo
#

Okay. Cc2652 is quite robust chip, so might be the board gone wrong. In case, you might want to erase the flash thru TI' s uniflash and reload the z2m firmware

quartz flume
#

I tried to reflash

#

Didn't work

near echo
#

On cc2531, unless you have antenna one, it really has issues. Even with antenna, you.never when it's going to die

quartz flume
#

I see, maybe i'm with the wrong firmware? Strange because i used this firmware in other sticks too

#

Can you point me to the firmware just to confirm it ?

near echo
#

So cc2531 can be used as a stop gap until you buy a new one. When working cc2652 arrives, just reflash cc2531 woth router firmware

quartz flume
#

is half the price, can arive in 2 to 4 days

#

I'm using the zstack firmware for the cc2652

near echo
#

I am guessing you are using z2m

quartz flume
#

Yes

near echo
near echo
quartz flume
#

texas smart rf program 2

near echo
quartz flume
#

Ok one sec

#

He doesn't see the stick as the prgram flash 2

#

should i try to erase and then reflash it ?

near echo
#

Yep, since it is not working, might as well give a try

#

After flashing show the logs when you run z2m

cause this is a fresh instalation of HAos in a RP3b, and the same happens in my home instalatin

near echo
#

Hmmm. And the same end devices pairs with other z2m co-ord?

#

You might want to load your cc2531 (if not being used) with router and see it if shows up

quartz flume
#

yes, it's fast too,

#

I do not have a cc2531, i was going to buy if it was good

The stick looks fine though from the logs

theres just one strange log, i do not understand it

Okay. Was expecting to some more longs then. Anyway, that log entry is indicating incompatible end device. But if the same device works in other , then its strange

#

Any other end device you have?

quartz flume

Yes, i have another mini zigbee and has the same behaiviour

near echo

Also, although unlikely, try changing the channel on this. Maybe the end device is detecting other cor-ord

quartz flume

those work fine in my othjer cc2562

Tried change the channel no luck

#

Okay bad luck then. Try to see if it works as a router though.

What exactly is the problem you're seeing with this broken CC2652 stick?

quartz flume

It can't pair devices

#

The other cc2562 stick i have works with them all.

The worst part is i will have to wait 3 weeks to get another one.

Is it one of the sticks that's built around a pre-made CC2652P module?

Its a prebuild with a cc2652R

what a horror show.. after restoring HA on a new system all the xiaomi smart power outlets relinked with my ikea switches.

and just to make it more fun the home assistant server was powered through one of them

#

ok.. guess i just throw these ikea zigbee on/off switches in the bin.. they've become unusable :/ they're downright dangerous

I'm also having some issues with Ikea Zigbee switches. I got 3 of the 5-button ones, and 2 of them stopped working last night.

Hmmm I upgraded my Pi3 to Pi4 with usb3 hdd but since then, I have trouble pairing. Particaularly with Sonoff temp&humidity modules. They get added but fail the handshake with msTemperatureMeasurement timeout - in Dev tools, there is no such msTemperatureMeasurement, only Temperature.

austere patio
sleek trout
#

I had a Pi3 where everything was working perfectly then about 4-5 days ago I upgraded to Pi4 with usb3 hdd. I had connection timeouts exactly like mentioned in that thread, and stayed patient while I ordered a 3 meter shielded usb3 extension cable to plug my CC2531 into, as per the readme that Koenkk wrote. Having it 2 meters away has made absolutely no difference.

I tried them via routers and coordinator, both had the same issues.

The only clue I can really add is: Yes this issue is random! Out of say 10 pairing attempts, 1 did work!! With temperature etc. But it only lasted some hours.

#

should i be using ZHA instead of this?

obsidian ore
#

That was the wrong message to reply to

vestal atlas

#

Hi, I have a conbee 2 and had ZHA running fine for a week or so then devices started becoming unavailable and it was not running well so I thought I'd try Deconz.
I removed all devices from the ZHA integration, then deleted the ZHA integration.
I downloaded the deconz add-on, configured and set up with phoscon. In Phoscon I made a backup, done a firmware update on the conbee stick.
I added the deconz integration but couldn't figure how to get it to work and was in a rush and so decided to go back and try ZHA with the firmware update to see if it made a difference.
...removed deconz, restarted HA and tried to add ZHA again with the auto config and it comes up with a message "aborted".
If I search ZHA and add it I get an error message "failed to connect" when I enter the device path - /dev/serial/by-id/usb-dresden_elektronik_ingenieurtechnik_GmbH_ConBee_II_DE2444935-if00.
Here's the log -

Retry command 0x0002

Anyone got any idea what I need to do to resolve this?

Figured it out: Phoscon updated with the wrong firmware πŸ™‚

wintry shell
#

I am very very new to HA. Got Home Assistant Blue (noice Odroid case), ConBee II stick and few Xiaomi buttons and sensors. Well... I feel dumb big time - I can't figure out how to get all these working together.
I installed deCONZ add-on and I need to specify device.
But I can't figure out what device to select (in drop down I got /dev/ttyS0, ... /dev/ttyS3, /dev/ttyAML0 and /dev/ttyAML1).
Maybe something is not working as expected. But I can't find ConBee in the list of hardware (Superviser->System->Host->Hardware). There is nothing "dresden electronics" there.

Tested ConBee II stick on Windows Desktop - works Ok there.
Any advice on setting it up on HomeAssistant OS?

graceful notch
#

if you know how to use ssh:
ls -al /dev/serial/by-id/usb-dresden (tab-key)
will show probably something similar like
/dev/serial/by-id/usb-dresden_elektronik_ingenieurtechnik_GmbH_ConBee_II_DE2425920-if00 -> ../../ttyACM0

#

for me it's /dev/ttyACM0

#

but each system is different and I don't use deconz

wintry shell
#

Yes, I know how to use SSH.
This is HomeAssistant OS. So I had to install "Terminal & SSH" add-on. Put my public key there. I can SSH into... something.

sour shadow
#

With HAOS you should look at the Supervisor's hardware meny

#

If it doesnt show, then the host isn't finding it

wintry shell
#

There is no "serial" under "/dev"

sour shadow
#

Well, yeah, that add-on isn't the host

wintry shell
#

Yeah, I think I am SSHing into one of containers.

sour shadow
#

You are

#

As I said though, if the stick isn't showing in the hardware menu, that is your problem

wintry shell
#

Superviser->System->Host->Hardware
I can't see anything there.

sour shadow
#

Until it shows there, it ain't gonna work

#

Start by checking the stick is detected elsewhere - like Windows

wintry shell
#

I mean there is a list but nothing like "dresden... "

sour shadow
#

Try another port in the Blue

wintry shell
#

Yeah, tried on Windows - works Ok.

#

So.. When it works... Is it going to be a new item in a list of Hardware (Superviser->System->Host->Hardware) ?

#

So far I can't see any new items in a list after plugging it in.

willow bronze
#

new z-stack firmware seems a bit dodgy

#

flashed it onto my cc2652p and it's having a real tough time pairing some of the tuya devices

willow bronze
#

Is there a way to check what channels a Zigbee device supports

#

and is there maybe a tool to scan for channels to see which one has the least interference

sour shadow
#

Lots of us found out the hard way that if you flash the latest firmware you have to un-pair every router and then re-pair them

willow bronze
#

and pairing in general felt wonkier

sour shadow
#

Yeah, latest firmware and Z2M are both a bit wonky

austere patio
austere patio
sour shadow
#

Those apparently are fine

#

It's just something to do with the routers... no idea what, it's been "fun"

willow bronze
#

Is there anything other than bellows that allows to form a network with a specified channel

#

bellows is very half baked and docs seem to be non-existent

sour shadow
#

ZHA? Zigbee2MQTT? deCONZ?

willow bronze
#

zha

sour shadow
willow bronze
#

is it going to leave and create a new network with that channel tho? some forums posts say i need to leave and form manually before using this

sour shadow
#

If you had to form manually first then I'd expect the docs to say that

willow bronze
#

docs can be a hit and miss sometimes and assume you have some prior knowledge

sour shadow
#

Yeah, but here anybody can contribute...

willow bronze
#

I wish I could but it's not like I know what is supposed to happen 😦

sour shadow
#

If they're missing key details it means nobody took the time to fix them when they knew better, which would be sad

austere patio
#

If you're trying to change the channel, just perform a backup, change it in the JSON, and restore the backup

willow bronze
#

backup of what

austere patio
#

The network settings

blazing tartan
#

Whats the range for a zigbee device? cant find a solid answer online

sour shadow
#

About 8 to 10 meters, maybe as little as one, maybe as much as 20

austere patio
#

bellows -d /dev/... backup

willow bronze
#

p

blazing tartan
#

well that makes sense then. got a zigbee device 40 feet away and having issues discovering

sour shadow
#

In open air, that's likely fine

#

The more obstructions, or interference, you have, the less likely that is to work

willow bronze
austere patio
willow bronze
sour shadow
#

Range depends on: Material in the way, antennas on both ends, interference, phase of the moon, position of the cat, and more

#

I'm only slightly sarcastic about the cat - Zigbee is blocked by water...

blazing tartan
#

got a metal door in the way on the repeater, and 4 walls between the hub and the devices

#

of course they are sonoff zibgee switches, so they COULD be bad

willow bronze
#

with zigbee you want to have lots of routers to mitigate the range issue

sour shadow
#

Metal is perfect for signal blocking

willow bronze
#

also apparently there's some massive interference on channel 15 for me so I hope changing the default channel will help with my network's wonkiness

#

i would check that personally for yourself if i were you

blazing tartan
#

Is there a simple zigbee router I can buy (that does nothing else)

sour shadow
#

Sure, a CC2531 (with antenna) flashed with router firmware

#

Better to buy another CC2652 though

willow bronze
#

it's probably going to be an overkill

sour shadow
#

Well, yes, but no

#

CC2652 gets Zigbee 3.0 firmware, CC2531 doesn't

willow bronze
#

is 2652 the cheapest hw for 3.0?

sour shadow
#

Effectively, yes

blazing tartan
#

is it plug and play?

willow bronze
#

Oh that's quite inexpensive

blazing tartan
#

IE i dont want to flash anything

willow bronze
#

usually i saw cc2652s triple the price of that

sour shadow
#

CC2652 sticks are trivial to flash though, no hardware required

willow bronze
sour shadow
#

You'll want to learn how to flash them anyway

willow bronze
#

and the commands aren't hard

#

there's even a GUI tool from TI that's very easy to use, it's windows only tho

blazing tartan
#

thats a no go for me

#

dont even use windows

sour shadow
#

I flash mine from Linux

austere patio
#

UNIFLASH runs on macOS and the Python script is cross-platform

willow bronze
#

what is channel mask for?

austere patio
#

You can ignore it

willow bronze
#

oh no

#

now i can't pair anything

#

except for battery devices

austere patio
#

What exactly did you change in the backup?

willow bronze
#

to this

# 
    "channel_mask": [
        20
    ],```
austere patio
#

Have you rebooted your routers?

#

If you're looking to just completely form a new network on a different channel, change your channel in the ZHA config and erase NVRAM. ZHA will form a new network on that channel with completely random settings.

willow bronze
#

i put them in the pairing mode, didn't work, turned off electricity in my house since they are hard wired, didn't help either

willow bronze
austere patio
#

Erasing NVRAM and then re-adding the ZHA integration?

willow bronze
#

yeah i also deleted the zigbee db file

#

and the one in .storage

austere patio
#

I don't think there's anything to manually touch in .storage but if you can join end-devices then your network is functional so it's something with your routers

#

If you erased NVRAM then a brand new network was formed with a new PAN ID, extended PAN ID, and network key

willow bronze
#

oh another erase did it

#

That was weird

#

all connected now

#

Thank you for all the help

austere patio
#

Strange that the reset didn't...reset. Did you unplug the stick at all before/after resetting?

willow bronze
#

i reset it on a different pc so yes

willow bronze
#

Wow

#

changing channel from 15 to 11 resulted in a device lowering its LQI from 112 to 57

#

And for another from 82 to 37

austere patio
#

LQI is only for the last hop so it could be that the route changed

willow bronze
#

no the route is the same

#

i checked

#

child devices have the same route for sure

violet dagger
#

LQI is a scam

willow bronze
#

Well the network is working better so I would say it's not totally useless

How would a CC2531 router work in a Zigbee 3.0 network

sour shadow
#

Yes, as a Zigbee 1.2 router

so devices which talk through it would be limited to zigbee 1.2

Hi everyone. Trying to move my Z2M configuration from HA Core to HassOS (VM on ESXi).

It seems like Z2M is saving the database.db file in a folder called β€œshare”. However when I open that folder in VSCode extension in HA, I don’t see anything. And I can’t for the life of me access the β€œregular” shell and exit the β€œha prompt”/cli.

#

It also seems like Z2M on HassOS behaves differently. On Core it would write any changes I made to devices.yaml, and paired devices appeared in database.db.

In HassOS I can’t even locate database.db, and when I pair a new device nothing is updated on devices.yaml…

Do you have Samba installed?

Well, they connect fine, but the devices are limited to ZB 1.2 at that point (AFAIK) - you'll lose (some of) the benefits of 3.0

Hey, so funny thing happened now.
I use ZHA integration with Sonoff ZB Bridge flashed with Tasmota. Tasmota version is 9.5.0, HA core-2021.10.2, supervisor-2021.10.0 (running on RPi 3B+).
I tried to add Zigbee motion sensor and after few attempts of being stuck at "Starting Interview" device was added but as unk_manufacturer and unk_model. Device was not configured immidiately as motion sensor and i was unable to read battery sensor. Running "Reconfigure device" multiple time failed.
Now this is where it gets really weird. I wanted to remove device from ZHA to add it again.
When i clicked "Remove", my mains powered zigbee switch (sonoff BASICZBR3) flashed couple of times (i got scarred for all the lights flashing as my alarm is configured when it goes off to flash the living room lights) and then got powered off. The lights, not the device itself.
Device was still visible to ZHA integration but seemed to lost all communication to ZHA (LQI and RSSI were unknown). I have no idea what happened and how to investigate or where do i even start and any help would be greatly appreciated

Well, first off replace it with one that supports a power restore state

If that's not an option, you need your Zigbee integration to recognise that the power was cut to the bulb

I am using ZHA to control an IKEA Tradfri bulb with a Tradfri 2 button switch. When I turn it on, it should be at full brightness, but after a home assistant restart, turning it on sets it to the dimmest value. Does anyone have any insight into this? I am using the blueprint ZHA -IKEA Tradfri on/off switch by poolcactus to do the automation.

Hello, I have a big house with thick walls, how much hops can zigbee support?
Zigbee and zwave can mesh up together? Thanks

#

Hi all, I am using ZHA. I set up some automations to notify me when sensors goes offline ( Unavailable ). To test this, I removed the battery from one of my sensors. The status of the battery did not change to unavailable. How long does it take for ZHA to refresh the status? How can I setup this better? I need to be notify as soon as they go offline? Is there a way to call a service to force the scanning? Thanks in advance

sour shadow
#

Battery devices likely take over 24 hours

#

I know on Z2M they take 25 hours

ember tree
#

Are you aware of any solution that refreshes or forces the scanning again?

sour shadow
#

I'm not, but I don't run ZHA

#

Battery devices can quite reasonably go many hours between checkins - I wouldn't be surprised if 24 hours is the maximum interval

#

Marking things unavailable too quickly would be a disaster

ember tree
#

That is an issue. Now, how can I rely on the reading of the sensors when I leave the house and activate the Alarm. Down on the road, they might be offline or even physically removed.

sour shadow
#

A few things you can do:

  1. Switch to wired sensors
  2. Monitor what's normal for your devices, notify when a device has gone past a second checkin
  3. Get a dog?
#

For instance, I've found that my Xiaomi devices check in (at least) hourly, Konke (at least) every 2 hours, and my Tuya (CR Smart Home) every 3 to 4 hours

#

Not a lot you can do about somebody stealing the sensors if they've already broken in and you didn't detect that

#

If they can steal your devices without breaking in you've got bigger issues

ember tree
#

Thanks @sour shadow for sharing ideas. I can see having a dog is the most reliable one πŸ™‚

You can just use service calls to set the temperature or brightness on demand

There are three Zigbee options with Home Assistant (regardless of how you install it). These are:

deCONZ is relatively stable and mature with its own UI (and Discord server). It can run in an add-on, in a Docker container, or natively. Only the ConBee range of sticks and RaspBee GPIO boards are supported. Known working devices are documented, and how to request support for a new device is documented too (you can't add unsupported devices yourself).

zha is actively developed as part of Home Assistant Core, using the zigpy stack, the UI also being part of Home Assistant. The EmberZNet based sticks are recommended (though the HUSBZB-1 uses an older chipset), but there are other options. There is no list of supported devices, as any standards compliant device should work. Devices that require extra support are listed, and adding unsupported devices is documented (you can't add unsupported devices yourself).

Zigbee2MQTT is very actively developed and can run in an add-on, in a Docker container, and natively. As of 1.15 has a native UI, and it also uses MQTT for control and configuration. It supports mostly TI based sticks, with the recommended option being the [CC2652 based sticks](#zigbee-archived message). If you want to use an EmberZNet stick see this issue. The known working devices are well documented (which usually includes how to pair them so you don't have to find the manual), and adding unsupported devices is also documented.

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), and the HUSBZB-1 uses an older chipset so should be avoided.

From what I understand the Ikea remotes communicate with the paired light directly (via bt I think, but not sure) to work instantly. Or do they go through gateway Everytime light is changed?

#

@sour shadow so I need the zigbee coordinator (like cc2652rb etc) to be able to set default brightness?

#

But what about triggering an action when a light is turned off, is the Ikea gateway enough then?

sour shadow
#

No

#

You need a coordinator to pair and work with devices using Zigbee

#

bluetooth is not involved

#

If you only want to use Ikea devices, sure, use their hub

#

Given how limiting that is, I don't recommend it

#

Zigbee remotes usually work using binding to allow them to directly control a light, or group of lights, but you can also pair them with HA

#

I don't have a Tradfri hub. I have multiple Tradfri devices, and Xiaomi, and Konke, and CR Smart Home, and Gledopto, and .... lots more

worldly willow
#

I'm worried that if syncing remote to ha instead of to the light directly will lead to delays and more fragility since I had understood the current Ikea buttons and light talk to each other directly which avoids this. But I guess I'll have toinvest in a zigbee controller to be able to set a default brightness

sour shadow
#

You either have the remote bound to the bulb, and controlling it directly, or you have it bound to HA and able to control what happens

My enbrighten hardwired light switch fell off my ZigBee (zha) network after working generally fine for some time. It's really close to the controller and also close to other sensors which are working fine. Is this just a "yeah that happens" situation with ZigBee?

there's no "best"

sacred mauve

what is one that is recommended within the community

lilac wharf
#

there's only a best for you which you'll have to decide on your own. take a look at the three integrations in the topic and see which one appeals to you the most

#

you're going to get very divided opinions on that. i run zigbee2mqtt, but others prefer ZHA

#

and someone, somewhere, uses deconz

sacred mauve

#

?

lilac wharf
#

yep

sacred mauve
#

well for now this is really the only thing i can get

lilac wharf
#

that'd work too

#

if you're not familiar with MQTT and/or don't want to learn about it, then zigbee2mqtt probably isn't the best choice (although integration with HA is easy with z2m since it supports discovery)

sacred mauve
#

im just trying to learn everything and see what works best and then i build my dream home once i get my next job

lilac wharf
#

well, the good thing about a CC2652-based adapter is you can use it with both zigbee2mqtt and ZHA (not at the same time), so you could always try z2m and switch to ZHA if you don't like it (or vice versa)

Well, presumably that CC2531 was used with ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT

rapid jetty
#

Yes, ZHA.

#

So are you saying that those sensors wont work with Deconz?

sour shadow
#

That was why it worked, it's not about the Conbee, it's about deCONZ not supporting it

#

Doesn't look like it

So, if I used ZHA instead of Deconz.... It would probably work.

#

The stick is (mostly) just a Zigbee radio - the device support is handled by the software

Is there a a preference out there DeConz vs ZHA ? I have been running for 3 years ( I think ) on Deconz with minor bumps in the road. Mostly because of VirtualBox

Whether that's Zigbee2MQTT or ZHA...

#

See the pin summarising the three options

I would guess the zigbee2MQTT just add isolation between Zigbee and HA

Oh ok will look.

Mostly, but it also allows you to add support for new devices yourself

Hey people! I just came back to Home Assistant, and I was so far behind in versions so I decided to wipe my configuration and start from scratch. I'm using Philips Hue White Ambience bulbs together with the Zigbee Home Automation plugin. But I forgot to "forget" the pairings with my old configuration. Is there a good way of doing this? I don't have the Hue Bridge, I just have the Conbee USB stick from Dresden.

Yep, it seems to work! I'm assuming this works because the stick remembers them, and I just need to turn them off and back on again for Home Assistant to "find" them.

All my Ikea switches now die within a day, and my Aqara temp sensors now die after like a week. I'm trying to figure out why, and my list of why is dwindling.

Firmware updating my stick is maybe the only other thing I can think of that could cause this on such a level

#

otherwise besides the battery drain, everything works fine...

#

What routers do you have?

#

Battery drain is usually a sign of a weak signal

prisma skiff
#

nothing else has changed about the set up though (same locations).

Routers (these what I would also call repeaters?) are Ikea outlets. They should be able to repeat the aqara stuff without issue.

And I've gone a whole year without having to replace any batteries until recently. And now, nothing lasts more than a day.

One of my Hue sensors is giving me a RED led blink whenever is detects motion!?
The battery is new and 100% full. And it turns the light on just fine.
ik id can blink when it detects motion but it was always a green led.

What does that mean?

lilac wharf
#

Red means it didn't hear back from the coordinator when the motion sensor sent a message to it

limpid tulip
#

weird, I'm sure it didn't do that just few days ago and I didn't mess up anything new with the zigbee stuff

#

hmmm that does seem to be the case... as I moved the coordinator closer to it stopped red blinking..

#

(although it was pretty close before, so maybe something new is hogging my chosen zigbee channel)

I've just been trying out the zha integration with a Aqara switch but it's picking it up as a light bulb but it actually says "EndDevice". I know i can switch the device type in the config but it doesn't seem to do anything. I can't tell what i should be using for the endpoint either. Has anyone experience in this area?

sour shadow
#

What model of switch?

snow crystal
#

deconz

#

An Aqara deconz switch?

#

That's a new one

snow crystal
#

oh no sorry, i misunderstood

#

will check one sec

#

Its just a Aqara wall switch 2 button

sour shadow
#

It'll have a model

#

For instance, the no-neutral ones are known to be end devices

I've got a ZHA install that is also throwing the piles of "Message send failure" errors like I've been seeing in this channel. I'm using a Nortek USB plug, plugged into a non-blue USB port via an extension cable. I've also turned on several of the debug logging options. Would anyone be able to give me some things to look at?

#

As an example:
[0x27EE:3:0x0008]: async_initialize: all attempts have failed: [DeliveryError('[0x27ee:3:0x0008]: Message send failure'), DeliveryError('[0x27ee:3:0x0008]: Message send failure'), DeliveryError('[0x27ee:3:0x0008]: Message send failure'), DeliveryError('[0x27ee:3:0x0008]: Message send failure')]

For the firmware on my CC26X2R1 do I want it to be a coordinator or a router?

#

I think coordinator since it's the only device I have?

lilac wharf
#

yep. you need a coordinator to start a zigbee network

Perfect, thank you

Im trying to use a diy "freepad" with ZHA but it is not showing up correctly / usable after pairing https://zigbee.blakadder.com/DIYRuZ_FreePad.html.

I know its currently not supported by zha according to blakadder website. But is there any hope i will be able to get it to work?
Can anybody help me out with a quirk?
(I already tried to understand how to build a quirk, but without any success so far)

Unfortunately i can not switch to Z2M because it does not relaibly support my Sonoff Zigbee bridge as a coordinator.

Hey, I have an issue with the Ikea Tradfri 5-button remote. Basically, it loses connection within days. When measuring the battery's voltage (it should be 3V), I only get 2.2V. What's going on?

#

I'm literally talking 2 or 3 days.

vestal atlas
obsidian ore
#

Yes, the first time it happened I replaced the battery, thinking that the battery that had come with it was old. But the new battery after a few days is also down to 2.2V

vestal atlas
#

Are you using ZHA? Do you have a Sonoff zb bridge?

obsidian ore
#

But yes, I'm using the Sonoff Zigbee bridge with Tasmota.

vestal atlas
#

Don't get a conbee tho, get cc2652 if you switch

#

I think i've read somewhere that you can update the silabs firmware

#

maybe that could solve it πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Hey, i want to get my sonoff door and motion sensor get to work with ZHA. Both are paired but the Status (ias_zone) doesn't change if i try the sensors. any solution?

Is this one with Zigbee?

I've seen in a Video a button (not a on/off switch), that was used to simulate different switch-posititons.
1 press = light 1 Toggle on/off
2 press = light 2 toggle on/off
long press = increase or decrease light-intensity

So I wonder if there are zigbee elements which allow to make a dump button become smart, and make me able to do coding what ever I like (e.g. 5 x press = trigger some automation)

@near echo thats sounds gread. thanks a lot

#

@near echo are there also those ones which can be installed behind the existing room-swtiches?

#

Good morning guys. Hope everyone is enjoying their Friday!
I have had a lot of trouble with my Zigbee devices disconnecting, not responding over the years. I was a Smartthings user long before Google was involved and in their last round of changes I started moving over to HASS.
Those problems with my Zigbee devices followed me over to HASS. I have no idea what it is.
Is this something that others experience too?

lilac wharf
#

also, what zigbee coordinator are you using?

hearty raven
lilac wharf
#

15, 20, and 25 are generally good choices since they're between the data carriers of wi-fi channels 1, 6, and 11

#

I was doing some reading on how to check my channel and set my channel. Found a command 'bellows -d /dev/ttyUSB0 info' to check the channel but when I run it in the terminal app, i get an error that it's not a known command

#

that Terminal app, do you need to perform a login somehow?

lilac wharf
#

Terminal app?

hearty raven
#

"SSH & Web Terminal Addon"

lilac wharf
#

I doubt bellows is installed in that container. I don't have add-ons, but IIRC that add-on is for running ha commands

hearty raven
#

ok

#

is that the right command to work on zigbee channels and changes?

#

is there another way?

lilac wharf
#

I don't think the conbee is compatible with the bellows zigbee library. I could be wrong, but I'd look into zigpy-deconz

Each time I restart HA, in my logs there is a message saying that "Your network is using the insecure Zigbee2MQTT network key!"

lilac wharf
#

Sounds like you're using the default z2m network key

main kettle
#

I was previously using zigbee2mqtt, but switched to ZHA - I removed the zigbee2mqtt add-on last week.

lilac wharf
#

Ah

main kettle
#

I don't know whether ZHA is using the insecure key somehow, or whether this is related to removal of Zigbee2MQTT not clearing up after itself properly.

lilac wharf
#

Probably the latter

main kettle
#

Doing some reading and it seems that the network key is set on the devices when they are initialised, so I guess zigbee2mqtt wouldn't be able to clear that up

hearty raven
#

Hey - so I installed the deconz addon, connected to it with the 'openwebUI' option. There is a message to perform a firmware update, I click that and nothing seems to happen. Any ideas?

#

For ZHA, how can I listen to events in developer tools? I want to see if a contact sensor is working properly.

#

well, found the contact sensor entity.... would like to be able to listen to events for remotes / buttons for ZHA

molten linden
#

@true vector go to Dev tools, Events Tab, put in zha_event as the Event to Subscribe to, then click listen.

i've bought a wireless zigbee cc2531 cc2540 sniffer bare board packet protocol analyzer module.. can this be used as a zigbee controller?

it seems like i have to flash this manually?

hello everyone, I added 2 SNZB-02 (temp sensor) to HA using USB Dongle and they added sucesfully but are not binding and I can't get any reading from the sensors, not even battery status or LQI.

#

any one had this issue and got it fixed?

#

thanks

I'm looking to include some zigbee devices in my network.
While I want to start with some Philips Hue devicces, I want to expand to others and getting the Hue integration won't cut it.

What is the major differences between the 3 (z2m, zha and deconz) integrations for zigbee (or where can I read about them in a comparison)?

There are three Zigbee options with Home Assistant (regardless of how you install it). These are:

deCONZ is relatively stable and mature with its own UI (and Discord server). It can run in an add-on, in a Docker container, or natively. Only the ConBee range of sticks and RaspBee GPIO boards are supported. Known working devices are documented, and how to request support for a new device is documented too (you can't add unsupported devices yourself).

zha is actively developed as part of Home Assistant Core, using the zigpy stack, the UI also being part of Home Assistant. The EmberZNet based sticks are recommended (though the HUSBZB-1 uses an older chipset), but there are other options. There is no list of supported devices, as any standards compliant device should work. Devices that require extra support are listed, and adding unsupported devices is documented (you can't add unsupported devices yourself).

Zigbee2MQTT is very actively developed and can run in an add-on, in a Docker container, and natively. As of 1.15 has a native UI, and it also uses MQTT for control and configuration. It supports mostly TI based sticks, with the recommended option being the [CC2652 based sticks](#zigbee-archived message). If you want to use an EmberZNet stick see this issue. The known working devices are well documented (which usually includes how to pair them so you don't have to find the manual), and adding unsupported devices is also documented.

also, see some of the pinned posts in this channel

remote wagon
#

Thank you, and will do.

mellow geode
#

Basically, use ZHA or Z2M lol

#

Texas Instruments CC2652 based Zigbee sticks work well with both ZHA and Z2M.
Silicon Labs chips only really work well with ZHA. (very experimental support in Z2M)

remote wagon
#

Will the DeConz sticks work with ZHA or Z2M? Shops in the Netherlands seem to mostly carry DeConz/ConBee sticks.

#

The only other option I can see is the EFR32MG1 SiLabs based POPP ZB stick.

vestal atlas
remote wagon
#

You're awesome. I've even looked on the second page of google results searching for "CC2652 zigbee usb".

mellow geode
lilac wharf
#

It works with z2m too, but it is "experimental"

remote wagon
#

I've pruchased at the link io sent, it seems a reasonable price for the CC2652 based stick.

#

As it also comes with Z2M flashed I think I will try that first and move to ZHA if need be.

mellow geode
#

I'm pretty sure they mean "Z2M compatible"

lilac wharf
#

Yeah, you can't flash a zigbee stick with z2m

austere patio
#

Rotating the network key isn't supported at the moment. I suggest you re-flash your coordinator to wipe all of the network settings and then re-add the ZHA integration. You'll lose all your devices but you won't be using a public network key.

Cheers! Anyone ever faced an issue where Zigbee-Sensors (window/door-sensor in my case) briefly show a wrong state right after HA-Core-Reboot? I'm using Zigbee2MQTT atm and my Aquara Door-/Window-Sensors keep showing up as "off" (closed) briefly before turning back to their actual state "on" (open) which unwantedly triggers automations to turn off radiators during nightly restarts

#

@stable leaf during startup the entities state shows up as "off"

lilac wharf
#

Enable retain

ivory sinew
#

as far as i know retain should be enabled by default (checked the config docs earlier). i tried to disable it which made no difference either so i turned it back on

lilac wharf
#

It's not the default

#

It's a per-device setting, and false is the default

ivory sinew
#

i see! i might have confused it with cache-state then! sorry about that. Is there a way to enable this to all devices by default or is there any specific reason why that would be a bad idea? also how would i go about enabling it? im using the zigbee2mqtt add-on on hass-os

lilac wharf
#

AFAIK it needs to be set per device. Not sure how you'd do that with the add-on

ivory sinew
#

Found it in the device settings via the web-ui and it seems to work so far!

Thanks a lot! I probably wouldn't have figured that there is a difference (retain vs cache) by myself and I started to get really annoyed about the radiators being off all night after restarts since its getting colder now ! πŸ˜„

lilac wharf
#

No prob! It caught me off guard too at one point with a lighting automation that would trigger on HA restart

mellow geode
#

Don't have debug logs on atm, but I'm always getting one random Zigbee device (re-)announcing itself on startup:
https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/6pQRFfj4Vk/
I'm not sure if it's related to this issue https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/57200 yet (this light wasn't in any ZHA group)

But how "bad" is this error: 'async_configure' stage failed: 'ConfigureReportingResponse' object has no attribute 'status'?
Like, I assume that just some configuration of attribute reporting fails. But it shouldn't cause any other issues, right?

austere patio
mellow geode
#

I've always been getting some failures in async_configure (#zigbee-archived message) but it never caused any issues (that I'm aware of).

Question: I can set the color temperature on ikea bulbs when connected to the ikea hub, but not with my zigbee2mqtt setup. Does anyone know why and how to fix this?

sage belfry
#

I have the xiaomi DJT11lm vibration sensor. But the entity state goes from "None" -> 1 ms "Vibration" -> "None".
The state only stays at "Vibration" for 1ms, it blinks.

#

This is not long enough for HA to see the change, so my automation won't run.

#

Anyone know how to fix this?

i have zigbee smartplugs connected to z2mqtt and they have a total increasing kwh sensor. But for some reason everynow and then all of a sudden they spike to for example 2000 kwh and a few seconds later back to the normal value. today i had one of them dropping to 0 for a moment and back to the normal value. Does anyone know whats causing these spikes? I use them in the energy integration but the readings are all over the place

#

i have aqara smartplug, aqara T1 with neutral and blitzwolf snartpluggs all doing this

azure tinsel
#

I have a feeling it more has something to do with a bug in z2m but not sure

lilac wharf
azure tinsel
#

indeed. as long as HA sees it, it will trigger. unless you have a "for:" in your trigger

#

By the way i just read about more people experiencing these spikes and drops. i am seeing something like an outlier filter to being able to filter spikes. this could be interesting. but does not fix the real problem

Hi, Just moved from ZHA to Zigbee2MQTT - I'm struggling to get hold of the actions of my Sonoff button, listening to events '*' doesn't show any button presses

#

however I can read the battery level via zigbee2mqtt but can't find any reporting of a button press - it's connected straight to my cordinator.

lilac wharf
#

find the device in the MQTT integration--you should see an action or click entity

#

no need to listen for events for button presses with zigbee2mqtt, thankfully

fluid escarp
#

oh nice! I'll give it a go in an automation

#

I found the action, but the battery now doesn't seem to be reporting, I have another button, so I may try that, could be a dodgy device

lilac wharf
#

it can take a while for devices to report battery

fluid escarp
#

got it in the logbook and nothing happens when i press

#

I'll try adding my other one

lilac wharf
#

it sends the button press action and then very quickly goes back to blank

fluid escarp
#

yep - but wouldn't the log book pickup a state change?

lilac wharf
#

mine doesn't. that's why i suggested finding the entity

fluid escarp
#

ok fair enough

lilac wharf
#

well it does, but it only shows when it goes back to None

fluid escarp
#

the actual entity itself on both buttons is showing as unknown

lilac wharf
#

try restarting z2m

fluid escarp
#

still unknown 😦

lilac wharf
#

odd. go to the device page in the z2m UI

fluid escarp
#

on it now

#

currently reporting N/A for all exposed

#

pressing doesn't change anything either

lilac wharf
#

alright, i'd try re-pairing it, and if that doesn't work... un-pair the device, restart z2m, and re-pair it

fluid escarp
#

ok will do

#

Failed to configure

#

its connected, reported a battery percentage

#

but evidently not configured right

#

seems to be timing out

lilac wharf
#

wake it up and z2m should try to configure it again

fluid escarp
#

wake it up by pressing it?
