did you put the FW file in the directory?

mighty river
#

from where should i get it?

molten linden
#

I don't know, you said originally you saw it needed a fw.

#

only place I know of for tuya fw is here

mighty river
#

on some forums i was there was information about upgrare avaliable but i dont know how they did it. and from where they had files

molten linden
#

maybe check the index.json too for any that are download links

Hello guys 🤠! Any advice on cheap switch relays, i mean if there really any big difference between such choices like can be found on ali. They looks very similar to each other. Brands like BlitzWolf, Moes, Girier. (Sonoff can see only 1gang)

mellow geode
mighty river
#

where should i put this file?

mellow geode
#

In the zha_ota directory you configured

# 
zha:
  zigpy_config:
    ota:
      otau_directory: /config/zigpy_ota
#

That's what you want in your configuration.yaml. Then, create a folder called zigpy_ota in your Home Assistant's config directory.

#

Put the file there, restart Home Assistant and trigger the update check again (and see what happens)

mighty river
#

i did it already

#

but folder is empty

mellow geode
mighty river
#

forget restarting thing

#

after restat i have this in logs

Consider uploading your future logs to a site like https://dpaste.org, so Discord isn't spammed with this.
The last part with "OTA upgrade progress" looks good. Is it still doing that?

mighty river
#

i know becouse i am analfabet and read fied as failed... sorry

mellow geode
#

Well, the OTA progress seems to have started. So try to see if the percentage increases (new log messages).

mighty river
#

it is . but how did you find this ota file and how did you know it is for my device. becouse right now i have one other to upgrade. and cant find it in this index.json file.

#

in HA it is registered as _TZ3000_gbshwgag TS0001

mellow geode
#

Here, the image type (54179) and manufacturer id (4417) are sent when a device checks for an OTA update. I just searched the index.json for that image type and manufacturer id

#

So you need to execute the service call (or whatever you did to get that log entry) for the other device

mighty river
#

thank you very much !!! finaly i will be able to go one step further by my self 🙂

austere patio
#

Instead of individually downloading files, you can also clone that entire repository. Zigpy will apply the correct OTA file to the appropriate device on its own.

#

It's automatic and there have been some issues with Tuya OTA in the past so I would check if any issues exist before doing so for any of your devices

#

But I think Z2M pulls bad OTA files pretty quickly

mighty river
#

i agree with you puddly. manualy is not faster but for sure is better becouse you know that you want this ota file.

Any smart people inhere who have an idea what this could be? I cannot update my HA, tried 3-4 times with same error after, all zigbee devices offline after update, from HA Core 2022.3.1 to 2022.5.3 - this is the log: https://dpaste.org/Vg55P - i can restore again, and all is fine again

@austere patio i dont think so, atleast i dont remember if i did .. is it corrupt?

Guys it worked. thank you very much for help. from now I think i will manage by my own.. Good luck

austere patio
#

Something changed the database version number to 29, it should be 7: PRAGMA user_version=7;. Do you have a macOS or Linux system with sqlite3 installed?

#

If so, run sqlite3 zigbee.db, paste that above command, and exit out of the shell. It should work fine after that.

ancient sorrel
#

Awesome, thank you. I have a mac i will try this later, hope it will work 🙂

austere patio
#

You likely have a startup warning complaining about the zigpy database version being larger than expected and that downgrades may result in data loss (or something like that)

mighty river
#

@austere patio i have one more qiestion. there is atribute current_summ_delivered (id: 0x0000) that is not refreshed automaticly only when i go to atributes and refresh it manualy. how can i change it to automatic?

I have a Conbee II for my Home Assistant Install. I'm trying to pair Graywind blinds with a zigbee motor using deCONZ and when I put them into pairing mode deCONZ does not pick up the blinds as sensors or lights. Any ideas?

#

Or any docs/videos I can learn how to troubleshoot this type of issue? New to zigbee

uneven ruin
#

how far from the controller are the blinds, are they able to reach?

ashen belfry
uneven ruin
#

yeah that should be fine

#

i'm not very knowledgeable with the conbee

ashen belfry
#

This has to be it in deconz, im just not sure how to have it show up as a device because it does not show up in phoscon

#

So even though it says it didn't pair it looks like it did?

#

Yea blinds work in deCONZ! Now how to bring this into HA from deCONZ, it was automatic when using phoscon...

mellow geode
#

Z2M also checks the reported Zigbee model for those devices

ashen belfry
# uneven ruin yeah that should be fine

I got both blinds to connect, weird it doesn't show in Phoscon, but in deCONZ it shows up and they're communicating back and forth. Do you know how to get a device if its in deCONZ pulled into HA as a device? Like in the screenshot above

uneven ruin
#

you need to pair deconz to HA through the integrations screen

ashen belfry
#

I'm able to control the blinds when going into deconz

chilly canyon
#

is there a better alternative to Zigbee for low-power stuff?

#

or maybe some recommendations for temp sensors that aren't trash. Xiaomi/Aquara seem to turn up a ton of problems when I search for them becoming "unavailable" all the time

ashen belfry
#

I believe you need to then "re-pair" the temp sensor so it can discover/use the new router(smart plug)

#

Now I uninstalled Deconz to try and get ZHA to work, but it "fails to probe" the conbee II for some reason...

chilly canyon
#

you have made a grave mistake 😄

#

it connects out to my thermostat (20 feet away) just fine every time, but not even a single temp sensor that's 3 feet away

ashen belfry
#

Ohh ok I actually had the battery pin on my aqara sensor bent badly and it caused not to have good contact on the sensor

#

I bent the pin more aggressively and it worked the entire time now

#

I'm confident that is the issue then 🙂

uneven ruin
#

all my aquara stuff works fine without going offline anymore since I made sure they pair to good devices

Installing it on HA but seem to have an issue starting... troubleshooting it now

near echo
#

You are on HA OS ?

#

I would recommend installing z2m as a seprate docker container.

ashen belfry
#

Yea, I have a portainer server, I'm just not sure how to add the required configuration.yaml in portainer outside of a docker-compose file

ashen belfry
near echo
#

As long as z2m connects to the same mqtt which ha uses. They should already be available

ashen belfry
#

it spun up its own MQTT server as part of the docker compose looking into it now

#

I should just specify the mqtt broker running on home assistant already instead of letting it make its own I guess

near echo
#

Yeh just give the mqtt of ha in z2m configuration

#

And restart z2m

ashen belfry
#

Yup, got it up and running in HA now easy enough

#

Deconz didn't work, then I tried ZHA, didn't work reliably, now this lol... hopefully get this finished up now

#

Curious how the control devices are going to work

#

Oh... it just... works.

#

Wow wtf was I doing before, zigbee2mqtt is the way to go

crude otter
#

i havent tried yet.. been using ZHA without issue

#

if it gives me trouble, i will try Z2M

ashen belfry
#

For some reason ZHA was giving me a lot of inconsistency with my Aqara plug which I use as a router mostly. Z2M has fixed that I am able to move it even further away than before weirdly enough with no issues

uneven ruin
#

probably due to being on a different default channel

#

Hi all! running z2mqtt 1.18.1-1 and recently it seems to have stopped using routers, can only see very local devices.. Any clues/ tips?

sour shadow
#

That's a touch outdated

#

Have you considered updating?

noble lion
#

I reverted after issues started but in-for-a-penny....

sour shadow
#

I know 1.25 has been iffy for some, but 1.24 should be fine

noble lion
#

sorry to ask a possibly daft question but: How do Up upgrade to a specific version?

sour shadow
#

Depends on how you run really

#

Docker is easy, add-ons are as far as I know impossible

noble lion
#

add-on 😦

sour shadow
#

Then stick, and maybe power cycle your routers

noble lion
#

hhmmm.. tradfri plus/routers seem to be the / related to the promblem.

#

I have a light working as a router after powercycling hi

sour shadow
#

Yeah, the Tradfri bulbs have a firmware bug that causes that

noble lion
#

My machine is an a dark corner, wondering if I've slipped into a USB3 port without noticing.. Things working MUCH better now I have one bulb switched on (not ikea), my zigbee network seems to be hanging off this on router!

noble lion
#

Oops - yep, USB3!! Muppet!
So far so sorted...

I've got a 2-gang Zigbee switch hooked up to Zigbee2MQTT, and I'm trying to get it into Home Assistant using the MQTT integration.

My configuration is:

  - name: "Home Exhaust"
    platform: "mqtt"
    state_topic: "z2m/main/bathroom"
    availability_topic: "z2m/bridge/state"
    command_topic: "z2m/main/bathroom/set"
    value_template: "{{ value_json.state_l2 }}"

But is there a way to set a command_template? How do I specify, in JSON, that it needs to set the command to be { "state_l2": "ON" } for on? There's payload_on and payload_off, and if I put those in as a string, it technically controls it, but then the icon doesn't change, and it doesn't work as a "toggle".

sour shadow
#

I'd suggest you get it to publish the discovery payload so you can use that as a template to create it manually

lament birch
#

Ohhh, I'm with you.

sour shadow
#

I mean, if you're going to enable hard mode you may as well make it easy on yourself

lament birch
#

That did make it easier! The docs for the device on Z2M were lacking a critical piece that was found by using the discovery topic.

sour shadow
#

In the early days the docs had the YAML required for manually creating HA entities, but it kinda got abandoned a while back as it become unwieldy - particularly as there's no good reason to not use Discovery

lament birch
#

Totally fair—at this point my rate of adding devices has slowed, and with a couple of kids running around, the time to add a device via YAML vs the time I'd spend reconfiguring everything without my existing config is likely a bit of a wash 😅

#

Appreciate the help! 🙏

Sigbee network over 100 ft. That ties in with main network/mesh what is the best solution. First step I am thinking is a tubes Poe coordinator but what can extend it to those differences

#

Distances

sour shadow
#

Well, you can't extend the mesh that far. You could run a second mesh though

elder tinsel
#

How would it blend or you thinking matt

#

Mqtt

#

Damn phone

sour shadow
#

Well, you'd either need to run Zigbee2MQTT for it, or a second HA instance

#

It's easy to run multiple Z2M instances though

elder tinsel
#

Ok so for primary is the Poe tubes good for zigbee2mqtt. As it’s a IP address vs usb

#

I have done no homework just brain storming

#

So I would end up with 4 different meshes or instances

sour shadow
#

Tube's coordinators are a good choice - get one of the PoE ones and you'll be sorted

elder tinsel
#

Last question does the main allow for mutiplr coordinators or they act independently and talk to the broker

sour shadow
#

They'd all be entirely separate - simply using the broker to talk to HA

#

Of course, if these are far apart, don't worry about the channel, just keep the base_topic different

elder tinsel
#

That’s what I thought so need pies for each

sour shadow
#

Well, yes but no

#

You could run all instances centrally

elder tinsel
#

Damn container for each

#

Piped over links

#

I think your kilt just blew upwards

because this aqara device does have a qr code

The 20211217 build has the workaround for the aqara E1 sensors. They should work. The QR code is for zigbee 3.0 secure joins.

Did you migrate from another coordinator?

No, its the same coordinator I just did a firmware update

because I couldn't connect the Aqara sensors I figured an update might fix it

The coordinator showing as unk_manufacturer happens sometimes at least I’ve seen it.

maybe tahts why pairing isn't working

when I click on Add I wonder which coordinator its using to connect

its like there is 0 output I have no idea what to even troubleshoot

There haven't been any changes to ZNP recently, especially ones that would cause the IEEE to change (not really possible without erasing the network entirely)

if I take a button out of range...will it immediately reconnect when back in range and pressed to trigger an automation?

or will it freak out if it periodically wakes and can't connect to its network?

I'm wondering if I can use a zigbee button as a garage door remote

#

I already have the door automated

#

and the button action works fine

terse crystal
#

guess there is only one way to find out

solid rose
#

it will reconnect, but not instantaneously. I will take time. Once I've just unplugged a zigbee power plug (no removing) and few minutes after then my button wasn't working, finally it reconnected itself to another node

right

#

well, I'll be out later and see what it does when I get back

works fine at the moment if I press it the garage door goes either up or down

import export of some sort?
and should i bite the bulliet and go immediately for zigbee2mqtt?
any advice or experiencess are appreciated

Anyone know why Aqara contact sensors have a yellow/orange blinking '%' in Zigbee2MQTT (the % is where the battery icon is on the other sensors). The other sensors - Sonoff contact sensor, Sonoff Temperature sensor, Sonoff Motion sensor - show a full battery there.

#

Brand new Aqara contact sensor right out of the box, btw.

robust forum
#

nvm, (or rather, FYI) - the system fixed itself after being left alone for a while (installed at around 5pm eastern, it's now 6:24pm eastern). Maybe the sensor needed time to calibrate the battery?? If anyone knows more, please let me know.

I do have the same Tuya motion sensor, and it was working fine before the most resent update, including the change of sensitivity, however now it shows up as unsupported. Did you find a solution?

I'm on z2m and as said the sensor was working fine before the most resent update, but since then it shows unsupported

meaning I can't even use it

when you say recent update, are you talking about HA, or zigbee2mqtt platform?

or mosquitto

HA

hazy edge
#

hmm i'm using all docker instances for each of those services and 2022.5.3 for HA

native prairie
#

I have HA installed as OS

#

I did before run on linux in docker, maybe that why it's not working anymore...funny part is, I have a sonoff sensor as well, which didn't work before but does now

#

I guess I will try to get my hands on some of the new aqara P1 sensors

#

these are the warnings I get

oh i have ts

#

#

does yours come with a lux meter?

native prairie
#

no

hazy edge
#

yea that's quite strange that HA says it's unsupported since the device is managed by Z2M and messaged goes through mosquito.

native prairie
#

yep, and it was working fine a couple of weeks ago

#

actually it is Z2M that says unsupported

#

and with that it does not show up in the entities in HA

hazy edge
#

have you tried removing and repairing? i know sometimes the device will auto reconnect and not paired fully

#

that's the only time i've had issues with z2m

native prairie
#

yes done that a few times

hazy edge
#

so i end up taking the batter out, remove the device on z2m then restart the service

native prairie
#

also factory reset and took battery out for a day

that's really odd

has any ZHA quirk expert idea how to handle case when one ZCL frame includes two attributes? Eg ZCL frame: b'\x09\x62\x02\x00\x29\x01\x01\x00\x01\x00\x05\x02\x00\x04\x00\x00\x00\x07' with \x01\x01\x00\x01\x00\ and \x05\x02\x00\x04\x00\x00\x00\x07 Currently the second one is ignored, but I need to get those data.

you can try to read an attribute

for battery devices you'd need to wake them for them to respond

mains powered should respond right away.

Start listening and then do things you know will trigger it.

If that works and you need it as a sensor, there’s an EventSensor integration that is a bit fiddly but works well once you have it filled out properly.

hi,

I'm currently trying to get a RGB light bar from Lidl working ("LIVARNO LUX®️ Lichtleiste")

I have the problem, that, as soon as I change the brightness, the white LEDs wont ever shut off. So the color is washed out when I change back to color. If I don't change brightness, it works. (It can be reseted by replugging it)

My current suspicion is, it has the same problem that the normal rgbcct bulbs from lidl have.
That means it should be sufficient to make them use this quirk: https://github.com/zigpy/zha-device-handlers/blob/dev/zhaquirks/lidl/rgbcct.py

now here is my problem:
I don't know much about how to make quirks. I have 1 custom quirk already that work (for another device)

but I cant figure out how to make this device use the quirk. I copied it and replaced the sigature, but it is not using it.

I used the quirk from the link above and replaced the signature with the one copied from the device. Is there anything I have to change when I copy it?

Hi, I have an issue with ZHA, not sure if this is the best place to ask so if you cannot help me I would appreciate it if, you could point me in the right direction.
I am on the latest HA version (2022.5.4) using a Sonoff Zigbee Bridge flashed with Tasmota firmware.
A week ago I mistakenly upgraded the firmware on my Tasmota making a mess out of everything, I have managed to revert back after a few hours and the need to re-pair all my 80+ devices. Everything seemed to be back to normal in HA, however now, randomly, in the timeframe of a few hours, some of the lights will now turn on at random.
I know it's not an automation turning them on because I only use light groups for automation, and it never happens that the whole group will turn on, just one individual light. Additionally, that one light will turn on, but its brightness and colour will be random.
Any idea on how I could debug what is going on?

tropic depot
#

turn on ZHA debug logging and post logs on a sharing site from when it happens

#

and link them here

#

but we will need full debug logs to determine what is up

twin cargo
#

Hi thanks, I have done so just now and will report back when it happens

wary harbor
#

anybody tried the new aqara p1 motion sensor? i'm not able to put it in pairing mode by holding its button, any ideas?

tropic depot
#

that's how to do it

#

how long are you holding it?

wary harbor
#

@tropic depot does it blink?

wary harbor
#

when I replace the batteries, it blinks blue once

tropic depot
#

yes it blinks

#

8-10 seconds

wary harbor
#

ok, i'll try again

#

just held the button for more than 60secs and nothing, is it defective?

#

so i tried with another one (I bought two) and it works, I guess the other one is defective which is weird

#

since it blink when replacing batteries

tropic depot
#

did you get the battery cage back in correctly

#

it's a huge PITA to get that thing out and back in correctly

wary harbor
#

meaning it should be in fine

tropic depot
#

doesn't mean it's staying in place correctly

wary harbor
#

hmm, i'll try opening it up again

tropic depot
#

🤷‍♂️

#

the way they built this part is kind of silly

wary harbor
#

agreed

tropic depot
#

yes the support for the device isn't launched yet

#

it's still being developed (by me)

#

It will be in the next major release of HA

wary harbor
#

oh nice, so in its current support, no motion can be detected? I don't see entities for that

tropic depot
#

correct... the device is super non spec compliant

#

all functionality is on the mfg cluster

#

there is a quirk up in draft that you can run locally if you want and don't want to wait for it to be finished

This is from zha, i have other Zigpy logs that might give more info, but ZHA in this timeframe its only this one

#

can you share a full log somewhere and link it here please

twin cargo
#

I cross-checked the device ID from the logs with the core .entity_registry and the event that happened just a second before (Device 0xf400 (...) joined the network) matches the device that turned on just after that. Could this have anything to do with it?

tropic depot
#

do you have the HA state changes too?

#

I am assuming you filtered this just to ZHA / Zigpy

twin cargo
#

I dont have those logs turned on, but I can do that and wait for the next event to happen. To me though it seems that this is happening anytime a device re-joins the Zigbee network, is it possible?

tropic depot
#

w/o the state changes it is impossible to tell

twin cargo
#

would it be helpful if I sent the Database state changes for that entity

austere patio
#

The full log with all of the debug logging for zigpy+ZHA enabled would be the most helpful. If you don't want to post it publicly, you can DM it.

#

But it's not unusual for lights to flash when they join a network. Have you tried physically cutting power to the bulb that's doing this?

hi folks, wondering what people might recommend for 15 door/window sensors. trying to price out compared to zwave, which is looking like $300+. I would also need to buy a stick, and potentially some repeaters. my house is ~2000sqft with 2 floors and a partially finished basement.

sour shadow
#

The Aqara sensors are cheap and work well - I have a lot of them ablobjoy

barren gust
#

and tinker already advised about the CC2531's for $13 repeaters

sour shadow
#

While some power sockets may make more sense, you can use CC2531 sticks with antennas as pretty capable routers - they're cheap

barren gust
#

tinkerer*

#

thanks, i'll have a look at those for a comparison

sour shadow
#

I bought into Zigbee for much the same reason ... I wanted to fit sensors to all the exterior windows, and sticking with Z-Wave would have been terribly expensive

barren gust
#

woof, these are only $5 cheaper

#

than the ZSE41's on sale now, at least

sour shadow
#

From AliExpress they should be around the $10 mark in bulk

barren gust
#

oooh nice

sour shadow
barren gust
#

nice, that'd be cheaper. could probably get all in for $250 or so, plus finally buy into zigbee

mellow geode
#

Btw. the new Aqara E1 sensors are compatible with ZHA (and probably also Z2M). They are Zigbee 3.0

It should't make that much of a difference though

Yes

#

You can't have both ZHA and Z2M using the same adapter at the same time

midnight robin
#

figured. have that "error while starting zigbee-herdsman" inside of docker

#

i suppose I can disable ZHA temporarily first?

sour shadow
#

I think you need to bite the bullet and just make the change, I'm pretty sure you can't flip back and fore

midnight robin
#

hmm. so inside of ZHA, delete the coordinator?

tropic depot
#

fully remove ZHA

#

settings / devices + services / go to zha and delete integration

#

delete is in the 3 dots menu

midnight robin
#

hoho okie let's try. my wife's going to be wondering why stuff's not working. hope i can go from this step to working integration asap 😂

tropic depot
#

what is making you change?

midnight robin
#

my kitchen motion sensor got sticked to my coordinator, and not using my router that i put nearer

tropic depot
#

integrations can't impact the routing at that level. Just FYI. the mesh is managed by the stack... nothing we can do to influence that

midnight robin
#

it's not working well so..driving my wife nuts > drives me nuts

sour shadow
#

Changing to Z2M won't fix that

midnight robin
#

but i suppose if i rebuild the zigbee network it can help? or so i thought

#

just bought 2 more ikea repeaters to hopefully do something

tropic depot
#

it may... but that's a complete crapshoot

#

the network will balance itself

midnight robin
#

it's one of those aqara motion sensors so i understand it has a "sticky" situation

tropic depot
#

remove it and pair it directly to the router

#

that may help because those dont tend to bounce around

midnight robin
#

yea..that's the idea. i tried that with ZHA using the "add using this device" option and it just refused to. goes straight back to the coordinator

tropic depot
#

wym?

#

you are resetting the device right?

midnight robin
#

the motion sensor. yea. removed. and added back. in ZHA. but it still shows connected to the coordinator.
so..
I'm giving Z2M a try and hope it works better

tropic depot
#

the map is not realtime

midnight robin
#

anyhow it was completely reporting the wrong status on ZHA, so like turning on lights when i'm not there. wife not happy

#

lol

#

ookay, looks like Z2M container booted up without errors this time

#

Z2M virgin on board

#

I should be adding routers first in the network, and manually selecting which routers to add the devices for better network? or that isn't really a thing?

Also is there a need to add a router(s) into the network? No idea how to actually set the ikea repeaters and the new sonoff 3.0 flashed router mode into "pairing" mode

tropic depot
#

not really a thing in general

#

the nwk will handle routing on its own

#

that said, aqara devices generally do not change parents

#

so for them it * may * work

midnight robin
#

nice, okay. yea in that case i'll do the aqara ones manually haha

#

i already have 2 routers on though..do they show up in Z2M (don't see them)? have to add them manually or?

tropic depot
#

no idea

midnight robin
#

mmm i'll try adding something 🙂

#

oo. aqara motion sensor in z2m can't see motion sensor, only the occupancy one

#

i posted the line from the log

midnight robin
#

but seeing it clears faster than 10mins, it's probably the motion sensor with the 2min timeout

twin cargo
#

Right got it, but Why did it turn on

#

that is my question

#

nothing from ZHA turned it on, or did it? How can I see that?

#

My problem is that these devices turn on "by themselves" at random in the middle of the night and its become quite annoying, so I'd like to figure how that happens? Any idea on how I could find that out?

#

Is it possible that it disconnects and then straight after reconnecting it turns on?

midnight robin
twin cargo
#

yeah I do have lots of door and motion sensors but none of them is triggering the device that turned on... I thought at first that since the devices are Gledopto ones, that it might be something else turning them on like a RF signal, but after disconnecting the Zigbee bridge from power for a whole night I realized that its not, as none turned on at that time. So there must be something on the zigbee network runing them on... I just dont understand what it is or how to find out

#

what I did do though, is that I upgraded the damn tasmota firmware and ater re-flashing the ZHA one with EZSP back on these things started on happening, so there must be something there, but I cannot delete ZHA and reinstall everything because I have 80+ devices that I would need to repair. and recreate Entity ids for so Im really not willing to do that 😦

midnight robin
#

ouch. ;/ i just deleted ZHA to move to Z2M so i know your pain (if you were to do it.) but yea i have no idea what's causing your ghosting device. the logs don't show any trigger?

What makes you think that an OTA file is available

mighty river
#

my fried an i bought thesame switches but he uses tuya controller and he said he updated firmware for those switches.

#

tomorow i can do to him and check his firmware version.

sour shadow
#

The firmware may only be available through their app/hub

mighty river
#

ok so i will ask in diferent way. this switch should have timer. if i turn it on it should turn off after sepified time. even if my zigbee controler is down it should turn off by it self. i tried to access clusters like off_wait_time, on_time and it wont work for me.

tropic depot
#

is this tuya?

#

yep

mighty river
#

yes

tropic depot
#

I think someone is working on timer stuff in quirks IIRC

mighty river
#

ok i will try there than thx

#

also i have wall plug neo it have child lock , switch link and powerstate clusters but i cant see them in ZHA right now i am doing this thx to scripts

#

how can i make proper enteties for it?

tropic depot
#

we're working on all of the config entities

#

tuya should be banned from this stuff

#

they are making a giant mess

mighty river
#

understood i will wait then. what devices are more comliant ? what you suggest for me to buy. ?

don't forget, about the new tuya style where the publish 2 attributes in one frame, which is curently not supported 😄

# tropic depot just the device joining and saying hey, I'm on

Is there a way to check some other logs to see what triggered the device turning on?
I mean are we sure that in those logs there is nothing that would turn it on, like, hey im here, and then it turns on or is it hey im here and im on? 🤔 This just started happening after I re-flashed the zb bridge.. any suggestions on what else to try?

Anyone have a recommendation for what button to replace this with? Or maybe a way to program zigbee button boards with new firmware?

I have a Sonoff button too, but I don’t know if it would be any easier to solder to, the aqara was a pain to make happen because the pads were so tiny…

https://imgur.com/C2OgQyo Hey there, I got an Ikea Motion sensor, and it pairs properly to Zigbee2mqtt. For some reason I get no output of motion. It always reads "Null". Anyone know where the issue could be?

austere patio
#

What does the network map look like for that portion of the network? What about its last-hop LQI? Can you add another router closer to the device?

torpid rock
#

Well the device is dead now, or near enough.

#

It has complete amnesia…

#

My closest three line of sight devices are within 50 feet, the closest being maybe 25 feet?

#

I don’t have the LQI data anymore, I had to remove the device to get it to reconnect…

torpid rock
#

As for having to poke buttons, I have a zigbee button in the middle of my network that is within 10 feet of the hub and it doesn’t report status until I push it, then it sends the command and also reports states.

austere patio
#

Perhaps it's because the button itself only expects to be in the unpushed state 99.9% of the time? Can you try your hardware mod with an Aqara door sensor instead, which always reports state changes in both directions?

midnight robin
torpid rock
#

I could probably do so? I was only confident in the button being what I needed for my incredibly simple hack job. Do you happen to have an internal view of the board? I had assumed it was a hall effect sensor which would be much harder to hack with how I’m setting it up…

Hi All, I had migrated from a zbbridge to one of Tubes, and had cloned the network to the tube coordinator. I have a need for a router, so I flashed the zbbridge, but it won’t join on zha because it has the same MAC address? (Eui64 I’m assuming) what is the easiest way to change that so it can join as a router?

While I’m at it buying this, anyone know what thermoprobe type is used in aqara’s temperature and humidity sensor?

#

Rather, I want to make a zigbee device that gives me a readout of my grill/smoker. Can I remove the thermocouple and replace it with a probe that will be able to handle the heat and leave the main device at a little range? Or do they use something too consolidated for that to be reasonable?

#

Nevermind, damn, they used a Sensiron SHT30…

midnight robin
#

Trying myself now, how'd you add the sonoff 3.0 (flashed as a router and was working in ZHA) as a router to zigbee2mqtt?

I'm trying to understand what I need for our new home. We'll use BTicino LivingNow switches and dimmers, which use zigbee. They also have a proprietary coordinator, but I've seen people use them with other coordinators.
Can I use a coordinator that is connected via ethernet to connect to my HomeAssistant server? Or does the coordinator need to be on the server itselfs? The server will be in the basement, but I guess the mesh can reach the first floor.

#

Will I be able to control the dim on the dimmers via zigbee?

sour shadow
#

Yes you can use a network connected coordinator

cerulean quest
#

I'd like to use ZHA, but I'm still way behind on the comprehension of this network so it could be an error

cerulean quest
sour shadow
#

Well, sort of

#

You tell ZHA about the coordinator - how to connect to it - and then it uses that radio to communicate with the Zigbee devices

cerulean quest
#

ok, so the coordinator itself is just an adapter, it doesn't know about the switches in the house

#

those are still completely on HA

sour shadow
#

Eh... sort of

#

The coordinator knows about all the devices, everything on the mesh, but it doesn't really care about them - it's "just" passing messages around

cerulean quest
#

ok, it's just a node in the mesh. His role is to let HA talk with the mesh

#

are there any "community recommended" ethernet coordinator? For ZHA

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 causing stability/reliability issues), and the HUSBZB-1 uses an older chipset so should be avoided.

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

Re-flash the coordinator firmware, take another backup of it, change the coordinator IEEE addresses to something unique (it shows up in a few spots) and change the network info so it doesn't collide with your new one, add "i_understand_i_can_update_eui64_only_once_and_i_still_want_to_do_it": true to the stack_specific.ezsp key, and then restore it. Once you re-flash the router firmware it might work.

#

quick question, what is more stable zigbee2mqtt or ZHA?

austere patio
#

What do you mean by stable? The network is managed by the stick so if you have a Zigbee problem, it's independent of your integration. Neither one of the two really has any stability problems, it's just a matter of initial device support and whether or not you want your Zigbee integration to be a part of HA itself.

dry aspen
#

stable I mean reliable, that it works always, not sure if the way to work of ZHA has a solid platform for example that the Zigbee2mqtt doesn't I don't know, I have from time to time issues of lack of reliability

sour shadow

Both are reliable

Most issues come down to the hardware you're using, not the software

I have some aqara temperature sensors that are having some major connectivity issues... and from some google-fu, that seems to be the norm. Any recommendations for more reliable temp sensors?

austere patio
#

How many do you have and what kinds of router devices are you using? How close are they to the sensors (and what parent routers did the Aqara devices choose)?

plain cargo
#

Just the dongle (nortek HUSBZB-1) and two aqara temp sensors, no repeaters. Technically, I have hue stuff, but it's all going through a separate system. The sensors are all directly connected to the nortek.

#

As far as distance, one's about six feet away and the other is two rooms over.

austere patio
#

Which ones are disconnecting?

plain cargo
#

Both

#

If I hit the button on the device, it reappears for a minute or two then goes unavailable again

#

Btw, thanks for the support in general. Not expecting this to go smoothly (been burned by IOT before), but it's good to have a sounding board in case it's something obvious.

austere patio
#

Are you using Z2M or ZHA with some manually-configured, very low device online timeout period? In general, you can expect Aqara devices that aren't actively being used to contact the coordinator like once per hour. A battery powered device going "offline" two minutes after last being triggered doesn't make much sense, since that's what they all do 😆

plain cargo
#

ZHA and zero manual tuning so far.

#

That's fair as well. Once per hour is a bit lower than I expected but for a thing that has a battery life measured in years, it'd have to be.

#

Hmmm... default is 6hrs before unavailable for devices on battery it seems. Guess I'll have to dive into why it's shorter than that but still unavailable

after years of using a Conbee II, i switched to the sonoff zigbee 3.0 dongle,

I used the conbee with deconz, Z2M, and ZHA, but had really much problems with the response time, it was always the same story, rebuild the network several times, and yes a total of 43 devices shouldn't the biggest issue, 16 of these are light bulbs (every room of the house)
(Deconz integration was most solid but, thats a long time a go and I had less lights and sensors back then)

after switching to the Sonoff Dongle with Z2M, i can say my network never have been this solid. fast responses and so on.

nothing else has changed placement of dongle is exact the same, and lights and other sensors, are still in same spot, (1 light may be moved a few cm)

New Zigbee devices suddenly stopped pairing via ZHA and still wasn't pairing after a full re-flash of the SSD. Third time's the charm - doing it again but have no high hopes. No idea what could cause this.

austere patio
#

What coordinator are you using?

hardy dew
#

Conbee 2

austere patio
#

How's your SSD installed?

hardy dew
#

via USB 3 in a case

austere patio
#

Is your Conbee II as far away as possible from the USB 3.0 SSD, with a USB 2.0 extension cable?

hardy dew
#

I mean, I could get a longer extension cable, but yeah - I guess

austere patio
#

The Conbee is especially sensitive to interference and USB 3.0 SSDs are noisy enough to have previously caused coordinators that aren't sensitive to not work very well

hardy dew
#

I guess I could try with an even longer extension cable - current one is 2m. I have a 5m as well. But it was working a few hours ago. I found every single device I tried to pair.

But after not being able to add my door lock to HomeKit, I tried installing deCONZ addon and adding the lock that way. It was found, just as with ZHA, but the lock didn't show up in HomeKit anyway, so I scrapped deCONZ. That's when the issue started. I couldn't add devices to ZHA, not even after a re-flash of the SSD.

austere patio
#

I don't believe deCONZ changes any settings on the stick when you start it up. Are existing devices on your network functional?

hardy dew
#

What kind of devices are you referring to? Since I've re-flashed twice now I don't have any other devices connected to HA. Devices that are connected to the Hue-bridge are still working and all network devices are working as intended - of course, none of those are connected to HA at this moment.

#

Well this is good but annoying! After re-flashing the SSD this last time, new devices are finally being paired via ZHA. I did no changes over last time. While I'm glad that it's finally working - I have no idea what caused the issue, or why devices wouldn't pair after a new full install of HA last time.

austere patio
#

No config stored on your SSD would control device joining

hardy dew
#

Right, and I flashed it twice after the issue started. So that makes me even more confused.

austere patio
#

Flashed the Conbee firmware? Or restored HA from a backup?

hardy dew
#

No, I re-flashed the SSD with a new image of HA to start over from the beginning

#

So no settings would be saved and I assumed I would have no conflicts that way

austere patio
#

Yeah, that wouldn't do anything new. I suggest moving the Conbee around and trying out a longer cable.

#

If you have any 2.4GHz WiFi APs on channels between 1 and 6 (or on those channels themselves), move the APs to 11

hardy dew
#

I changed Zigbee channel to 15 the other day because there are networks on 1, 2 and 11. Zigbee was 11 as well.

#

2?

#

That's unusual

hardy dew
#

Maybe, I don't remember. That network is now on 8 anyway. It's not mine

austere patio
#

If you want to scan for a better channel instead of guessing based on WiFi APs, try out https://github.com/zigpy/zigpy-cli/pull/2 and then run a scan with zigpy radio deconz /dev/serial/by-id/... energy-scan

hardy dew
#

Thank you! I'll keep that in mind for the future. There are only two houses here - me and my neighbour. He's not using any smart home devices at all and only have a 2,4 and 5GHz network, both have low strength here but I can see them. MacOS has built-in scanner for network channels, which is how I found out the current ones.

#

I'm assuming your link is much more advanced, but maybe not needed atm right now

austere patio
#

Sure. 2.4GHz WiFi is just one major one. You can get interference from SSDs, motherboards, power supplies, etc.

hardy dew
#

Oh, I see

austere patio
#

Zigbee is very low power compared to WiFi so it's drowned out by many things, especially when they're right next to the receiver

hardy dew
#

Then I'll likely take a closer look at it

#

When I dabbled in HA a few years ago I used deCONZ for all integration of my devices. Is ZHA the recommended way now?

austere patio
#

ZHA and Z2M support more or less the same coordinator hardware so it's just personal preference and initial device support. deCONZ is less widely recommended since it only supports the Conbee and is only half open source.

Which ones? Some are known to crash and then only be reachable with group commands. Try power cycling the affected devices by shutting them off at the switch for like 10 seconds then turning them back on.

Maybe a quick question but has anyone seen their devices just go unavailable? It has to be something in my config. Things work for a while but then routers just drop. For example I have a Jasco outlet and it just dropped the other day. I don't know what to do to bring it back. Logs just say "Device seen - marking th edevice available and resetting counter" with pings exhausted.

I have like 109 Zigbee devices mostly sengled

3 routers are offline. 2xSengled E1C-NB7 and that Jasco 43102

I have just upgraded to 2022.5.5 and some blueprints/automations I have been working on to use the "Moes smart knobs" have all stopped working. In the dev tools when listening to the zha_events the attributes of the message are now completely different to what I had used in the automation templates. This did happen in a previous upgrade but it was an improvement but this time much of the useful attributes have gone. I am guessing that support for these devices is still being worked on, Can someone tell me what the process is for finalising support for these devices? My other, I wonder, is how hard it is to create my own support for the device that I can maintain so that my automations do not break?

I have found https://github.com/zigpy/zha-device-handlers/blob/dev/zhaquirks/tuya/ts004f.py in the structure device_automation_triggers the correct commands are there plus the commands I am seeing now for when I rotate the know etc. Maybe in testing my automation I have somehow done a sequence of pushes that has changed the knobs mode to some degree. I have also checked the other knob I have configured in an automation and that is still behaving normally (producing the commands I had seen up until now)

Hello, im really new to all this and just looking. The question really is what are ZigBee bridges, hubs routers, and gateways. The seem interchangeable. I’m looking at running HA on a home server as a VM so need it to be able to talk to the zigbee network. Thinking about getting something that will work with POE but not sure entirely what I need. Sonoff seem to be the big players? Idealy if someone can point me in the direction of some videos it would be appreciated

#

I'm in the same boat with the Hue stuff using their bridge currently. May move to a dedicated device that HA can control and then emulate the vendor specific features in HA.

I have this Hue motion sensor that has been giving me a lot of problems. It was completely fine under ZHA but after switching to Zigbee3MQTT I've been having a lot of problems. Could just be a coincidence. It sits under my monitor just a little back from the keyboard and I'm at my desk most of the day so it's getting activated constantly. Is it possible that it could be going through both AAA batteries in a month or two?

#

I have two other of these motion sensors that have been working flawlessly. I changed the batteries once and it was fine for a little while. I've also tried using a tool (don't remember) that helped me determine the best channel to use and I switched over all my devices to that channel (25)

#

Unfortunately I don't have a multimeter or anything to double check the status of the batteries, so not even sure if that's the problem

#

In the past few weeks I've noticed I can no longer use the "Map" option in Z2M, it starts but eventually times out and never produces a map. Is this a known issue?

The device seems to not have much rejoining the network when I hit the button though. Also it's really close to the coordinator which is in the same room

Any gotchas on migrating from one zigbee stick to another?

You'll have to re-pair all your devices and their names may change.

tribal rose
#

I have a HUSBZB-1, and changing to a Sonoff with the cc2652

woeful urchin
#

Same thing when I migrated from deCONZ to Z2M

tribal rose
#

Hmm, I'm not using deCONZ but not sure what I am using...

#

must be zha, I didn't have the Z2M repo added.

#

Perhaps I should just go ahead and migrate to that now.

#

no actually upon reading it looks to be better to wait for the new coordinator and just rebuild in z2m from scratch.

woeful urchin
#

If you're buying a new USB stick, wait for that to arrive and setup Z2M on that while keeping ZHA on your HUSBZB-1, that will allow you to migrate device-by-device

#

Then when you've moved everything over, disable ZHA.

Yeah sounds like a plan, thanks.

I have it set up and working I was trying to add a few more things today and it’s just like it stuck on stupid it won’t let me add anything I’ve rebooted my pie I’ve tried just about everything

uneven ruin
#

typically when things won't add its because they're not talking to the mesh for some reason (poor signal, etc)

#

go the the logs section and increase the log level to debug and see what it says when you try to add

in the zigbee2mqtt interface theres a list of sections across the top

one is Logs

OK I’ll take a look and see what pops up give me a second

i have ha running as a container. For Zigbee2MQTT what basic hardware would i need to get started with? I assume a usb dongle and a device of some sort? I would have to buy via aliexpress.

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 causing stability/reliability issues), and the HUSBZB-1 uses an older chipset so should be avoided.

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

You need a coordinator ☝️

#

After that, you need to build the mesh with routers (<#zigbee-archived message>) so the end devices (sensors) can reach the coordinator

#

I've been quite happy with Xiaomi sensors, they work well and are cheap

#

Tuya is a shit show, and Sonoff devices are often pretty poor too.

I want to be able to add all kind of sensors without paying for all kind of systems where you have to buy there hub pack and so on to get started

#

Ahh ok. There are two ways (well 3 actually, but I am going to ignore deconz) to get a universal zigbee integration - there is the ZHA built in to HA and there is zigbee2mqtt (often known as z2m). Both are good and have their adherents. In both cases you will need an external, usually USB coordinator. Start here to find one https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/guide/adapters/#recommended - even though that is a z2m page, the advice is equally applicable to zha. Once you have a co-ordinator, use zha or z2m and start adding devices. The z2m website has some great info on zigbee networks eg here https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/advanced/zigbee/01_zigbee_network.html#device-types

I don't think you need to do anything on the z2m end if you have both as addons. But you do need to set up a user and password for mosquitto. You do that by adding a user to home assistant.
