Zigbee devices greyed out in domoticz GUI

Post by Bospieper »

Hello, since reinstalling Zigbee2MQTT I have been experiencing the problem that all Zigbee devices are grayed out in the Domoticz GUI.
When I click on a device from the device list I get the error message: "error sending switch command, check device/hardware (idx=X)!"
What did I do? I removed all Zigbee devices from the device list and then reinstalled Zigbee2MQTT. I added the devices again via Frontend. These also appeared in the device list.
In Frontend I can switch devices on/off.
What I read on the internet has to do with the device ID which somehow no longer matches what is in the database.
I need some help to solve this problem.

Greyed out means they are not connected to an active hardware gateway in Domoticz.
So you have to check the settings of zigbee2MQTT in Domoticz menu Setup - Hardware
Domoticz running on Udoo X86 (on Ubuntu)
Devices/plugins: ZigbeeforDomoticz (with Xiaomi, Ikea, Tuya devices), Nefit Easy, Midea Airco, Omnik Solar, Goodwe Solar

:oops: I'am so stupid.I'd overlooked completely the fact that the zigbee2mqtt in the hardware was inactive. It's working now.
Thanx Waltervl
