Using Domiticz to communicate with IKEA Trådfri

Post by Docdigit »

Dear team,
Currently I am running Domoticz on a Raspberry Pi 3 without any problems so far. Domoticz runs here for a 433Mhz network (KiKa switches).

Can I use the same Domiticz to manage together with the Zigbee plugin a bridge to IKEA Trådfri, hence the manageIKEA bulbs?
That should mean that I use Domoticz for both managing 433Hz devices and this Zigbee plugin (with dongle) to communcate with IKEA Trådfri gateway.
Or should I best use another RPi for that with Domoticz only dedicated to Zigbee network?

If your question is "Can I use a 433 Mhz gateway with a Zigbee gateway on the sameRaspberry" ? Yes.

Look at the following zigbee page for all info on gateways (all without 433 support)
https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Zigbee#Zi ... n_Domoticz
Domoticz running on Udoo X86 (on Ubuntu)
Devices/plugins: ZigbeeforDomoticz (with Xiaomi, Ikea, Tuya devices), Nefit Easy, Midea Airco, Omnik Solar, Goodwe Solar

Just plug the Zigbee gateway on an USB port and the 433 mhz gateway on the other.
Or I haven't understand what you are asking ?

Sorry I respond so late.
Thanks, yes you did understand it. Only just I saw on Youtube that you don't need a Zigbee gateway to communicate using Wifi6. Is that correct?
Then Domoticz would fit the job functioning as the hub?

Don't mix up Zigbee and Z-Wave
