The deCONZ REST plugin provides a REST-API to access Zigbee 3.0 (Z30), Zigbee Home Automation (ZHA) and Zigbee Light Link (ZLL) lights, switches and sensors like Xiaomi Aqara, IKEA TRÅDFRI and Philips Hue.
A list of supported Zigbee devices can be found on the Supported Devices page.
As hardware the RaspBee Zigbee Shield for Raspberry Pi, a ConBee or ConBee II USB-dongle is used to communicate with the Zigbee devices.
To learn more about the REST-API itself please visit the REST-API Documentation page.
The Phoscon App is the successor of the 2016 WebApp (Wireless Light Control), it's browser based and supports more sensors and switches. For more information and screenshots check out:
- Raspbian Jessie and Stretch
- Ubuntu Xenial and Bionic
- Windows 7 and 10
Select the your device and follow the instructions on the Phoscon website for your platform.
Important: If you're updating from a previous version always make sure to create an backup in the Phoscon App and read the changelog first.
