Another great vid and perfect timing - I am moving all my ZigBee devices over to a new Pi using the sonoff USB stick. I have a self written front end using MQTT as the comms.

Hi, A little confused I have a small Zigbee setup . I am using a KETOTEK Tuya Zigbee 3.0 / Wifi gateway, should I not be able to access this via Node RED, or do I still need a Zigbee USB dongle like this?

Hey, I got a smart plug with power measurement and z2m also shows the values which is great. Is there a possibility to monitor the values in a specific period of time? As example my pc needed the last month an default amount of watts. Just want to track the power consumption

Zigbee2MQTT just created a connection between the Zigbee network and MQTT. It will not monitor or store anything. You need some other system to do that. Or store the value in a database so you can review historical records.

@@csongorvarga do you know how to automatically store these values to a database? Excel would actually be enough for this

I am also using the BlitzWolf plug and wonder, how much watts my computer would need in a month as example. Have you tried anything similar with the blitzwolf plug or is the energy "all-time" consumption value all information you need?

@csongorvarga 2 жыл бұрын

@@schubertma If you want to keep is simple, you can just read the total energy counter in zigbee2mqtt on a paper and read it again on one month. The plug keeps track of the total energy consumed and that information is retained even if there is a power loss.

is there a way to use, together, the zbdongle-e and the zbbdridge-pro? i've both, the latter came free gift buying 6 trvzb valves, and i already set them up inside ewelink and paired with the bridge... but i can connect the dongle to my minipc which is an other room... is there a way to use one to extend the network of the other one, and in case, which to use to pair and which as mesh member? i'd like to keep the ewelink app because i bought the valves so i can remotely close them when someone is not at home in their rooms... thanks in advance!

Not as far as I know. There is always one and only one coordinator on the zigbee network. You can build a second separate network but the devices would either link to one or the other. I think just keep the other as a spare...

@@csongorvarga ok, so i need to keep the zbbridge and eventually flash the zbdongle with a router firmware, and put it somewhere with just a normal usb psu, right? there's no need to keep attached to a pc if just a router... but how to pair it to the zbbridge? i need to open it, i think, right? and, final request: is zbbridge usable with home assistant without reflash it with tasmota or similar? Locally, i mean, not via ewelink...

@@squalazzo I think this is above my paygrade. I don't have experience with how to do custom firmware on zbbridge. This was one of the reason I got the zbdongle, but it was just plug and play. I plugged it in as it case out of the box and pointed Zigbee2MQTT to use the device. Since you have both I would say go the easy route and use the dongle with home assistant. But that means you need to re-pair you devices from the bridge.

@@csongorvarga , indeed, i'd prefer to keep them paired with the zbbridge (waiting for the ihost to arrive tomorrow, support for trvzb valves is supposed to be added this month, so i can import them all and use them locally), i'll let you know, thanks!

What is the maximum number of ZigBee devices that can be connected to one Zigbee2mqtt dongle at the same time? What is the maximum distance between the Zigbee device and the Zigbee2mqtt dongle?

@akauppi2 5 ай бұрын

a. 32 I read somewhere; but that's for direct connection; b) {going to try that out this week}

Zigbee 3.0 usb dongle works as Network connection too ?

That is a usb dongle. It is plugged into a computer which is connected to the network.

Hi thx for tutorial, I can make it work after cd /opt/zigbee2mqtt and sudo npm start but I can not make zigbee2mqtt start automatically at boot. Did you try that? sudo systemctl enable zigbee2mqtt.service gives always error code=exited, status=217/USER. In the /etc/systemd/system/zigbee2mqtt.service KoenKK used user pi but I used another user, must be something about the user but I am not so good in linux. I modified the User=pi to my username but it not works Any idea? Thx in advance.

Best to ask fron zigbee2mqtt. It must be a linux authorisation issue, and I am no expert either.
