I see that the author of this plugin has not been active on this forum since September... given the fact that he is located in the Ukrain, I worry about his well being.
Does anyone have information? Is he OK?
This is the problem with 1 developer....
Try the hardcore version in Domoticz. Working great, and all the devices/settings are in your backup etc. [ no other save options needed.. ]
In my experience, the Z2M python plugin works quite well for most devices, like 95% of Z2M project by Koen. I added for example the Tom thermostat in Z2M and needed to add things in Z2M plugin to get it to work. Without Python and plugin knowledge, you're not going to get this to work (and then, the Z2M plugin is one of the most complicated ones I've seen).
As mentioned, the Z2M plugin is a 1 man thing which is always risky, but Stas has been approving PR's on the plugin. I guess he's just not actively maintaining it anymore (has probably other things to worry about).
z2m and hardcored z2m works 100%
And the risk of a one men show...
With ALL the respect voor developing a plugin.. 1 man not the best soltion [ i used it for a long time.. perhaps he don't upgrade because the domoticz option

After a lot of hassle with the plugins, I ditched Z2M and the Zigbee2MQTT plugins, and installed Zigbee for Domoticz.
Worked great from the start, except for one Ikea lamp that was not supported (although all functions worked OK).
It took 1 day to get this lamp supported... I am very happy with this solution!

Yep.. i know ... Works

Perhaps better learning in z2m is sometimes a solution.
Reset good before learn again

Hi all,
Does anyone have this device working:
https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/NAS-AB02B2.html
I only have volume, melody, low battery and link quality as devices, so no option to turn the alarm on/off.

Thanks, so it should work, I’ll try re-pairing, I’m missing the alarm one.
