Domoticz

I have some IKEA Trådfri buttons that I want to control my blockly event with. Let's say a simple set/reset function with two buttons in different places. One button to start and one button to stop. I use a simple outlet controlled by two buttons. What should I use in the blockley button input? If I use "On" or "Off" nothing happens.

Which Zigbee system are you using ? zigbee2mqtt, Conbee or something else ?

RPi with Zigate plugin board right now.

Do you have a Domoticz switch device connected to that buttons?
Do you see something in the logs when you press a button on those devices?

For usage of those buttons in Zigate (now called ZigbeeforDomoticz) see wiki page https://zigbeefordomoticz.github.io/wik ... with-plug-

Aha! That I hadn't seen. No I have no switch device. I will read some more about this and maybe I can understand a little bit more. Thankyou very much so far.

My installation went corrupt and I decided to start over from the beginning with updated components. I installed 2022-09-22-raspios-bullseye-armhf.img.xy and got it starting up nice with Domoticz installation. But now the problem start. I can't find the Zigate instructions I had used for my earlier installation and after some searching around it looks like the whole system is reworked into "Zigbee for Domoticz". Ok. I try to follow the guide for installing:
https://zigbeefordomoticz.github.io/wik ... bian-linux
but fails trying to find wiringpi as it is marked deprecated.

Now I'm totally confused and have no idea where to go further...

From the zigate website I found this

Thanx, Walter!

That helped a lot for wiringpi. Strange that the Wiki doesn't say anything about that.

Now I have another problem. When I choose serial port in the plugin settings, I can't choose serial 0 as it should be according to the Wiki installation description. The console for serial 0 is disabled according to the Wiki instructions. What am I doing wrong?

I remember now there was a problem that might have to do with this.

9. Set the accessability of the serial adapter to ‘No’ using raspi-config option P6 (Interfacing options / serial):

In my installation there is no P6 option. The 'P' options only go to 4. And since this has to do with serial I believe it hast to do with my problem. But why doesn't my installation coordinate with the Wiki? And what should I do instead?

The developer of the plugin (@pipiche) is notified of your issue so he hopefully will step in soon.

unfortunatly I have no idea. and the Zigate wiki (unfortunately in French) is not giving any alternatives
https://zigate.fr/documentation/parametrer-la-pizigate/

On the forum, the Zigate manufacturer is advising to use https://project-downloads.drogon.net/wi ... latest.deb
https://zigate.fr/forum/topic/remplacement-wiringpi/ which was advise by @waltervl

Which type of PI do you have ?

For PI3 and zero: https://zigate.fr/documentation/compati ... et-zero-w/
For Pi4 : https://zigate.fr/documentation/compati ... ry-pi-4-b/

Thankyou very much. There is one line I havn't seen before. It's the "enable_uart=1" line which seems to have something to do with my problem. I'll check into it a bit more.

The "enable_uart=1" line in config solved the serial problem. Now I can add the Zigate hardware and it pops up in the hardware list.

Next to do is to start paring with "Permit join time" and clear old pairings with "Erase Persistent Data: True". But I can't find those settings. Where do I find them?

Hope that helps ...

Thanx. Ok. It has changed since the instruction was written. Maybe that instruction should also be changed then.

Now, I've probably succeeded emptying the old pairing list with the coordinator initialization.

Then put it in pairing mode. Do you mean that should be done thru the plugin dasboard?

I have tried accessing the dashboard settings by changing port 8080 against 9440 but can't get access to any page there.

can you check the Logs/PluginZigbee-xx.log ?

I cant find that file. Neither can "Locate". What's the complete path to it?

I have found "~/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigbee/Logs" but there is no "PluginZigbee-xx.log" file there. Do I have to enable it in some way?

Now I've assured I have the latest plugin version by running the update procedure at #12 in the installation instructions. Still can't access the plugin web page at port 9440.

Without any logs we cannot really help you
