This document describes how to use Digi XBee device as a router or end device.
You may need to configure zigpy to listen to the appropriate additional endpoints which it ignores by default. This is an example config for HA ZHA:
zha:
zigpy_config:
additional_endpoints:
- endpoint: 0xE6
profile: 0xC105
device_type: 0x0000
device_version: 0b0000
input_clusters: [0xA1]
output_clusters: [0x21]
- endpoint: 0xE8
profile: 0xC105
device_type: 0x0000
device_version: 0b0000
input_clusters: [0x11, 0x92]
output_clusters: [0x11]
If you are using zigpy_znp
, you might also need need to add
znp_config:
prefer_endpoint_1: false
to the zigpy_config:
section.
Please note that not all coordinators have been tested yet.
Digital input/output pins are exposed as switches.
To use this functionality must configure the xbee to send samples to the coordinator, DH
and DL
to the coordiator's address (0).
The switch state will change depending on the state.
There are two options of reporting the pin state: periodic sampling (IR
) and on state change (IC
).
To configure reporting on state change please set the appropriate bit mask on IC
, and to send perodic reports every x milliseconds please set IR
to a value greater than zero.
The recommended approach is to combine both methods. Please note that Home Assistant will mark a zigbee device as unavailable if it doesn't send any communication for more than two hours.
Instead of the IR
command for periodic sampling you can also periodically send IS
remote command from HA (see below on remote AT commands).
If you want the pin to work as input, it must be configured as input with XCTU.
If you want the pin to work as output, it is still important to configure the sample reporting in order to know the state of the switch.
The analog input pins are exposed as sensors.
You must configure periodic sampling (IR
; please see above for more on that) and configure corresponding pins as analog inputs.
The sensors show voltage in percent relative to the analog reference voltage. 0 is 0V and 100 is the analog reference voltage or above.
The analog reference voltage is 1.2V for XBee and selectable between 1.25V, 2.5V and VDD with AV
command for XBee3.
The supply voltage is exposed as sensor and measured in volts.
To use the functionality, enable it with V+
command and configure periodic sampling as above.
XBee3 provides two PWM outputs. They are exposed as number
entities.
Outgoing UART data can be sent with zha.issue_zigbee_cluster_command
service.
Incoming UART data will generate zha_event
event.
For example, the following script replies with an Assistant
string to the device once it receives a Home
string from it (replace ieee with your actual endpoint device ieee):
automation:
- alias: XBee UART Test
trigger:
platform: event
event_type: zha_event
event_data:
device_ieee: 00:13:a2:00:12:34:56:78
command: receive_data
args:
data: Home
action:
service: zha.issue_zigbee_cluster_command
data:
ieee: 00:13:a2:00:12:34:56:78
endpoint_id: 232
cluster_id: 17
cluster_type: in
command: 0
command_type: server
params:
data: Assistant
Like with UART, you can send remote AT commands with zha.issue_zigbee_cluster_command
service.
If the command is unsuccessful, you will get an exception in the logs. If it is successful, the response will be available as zha_event
event.
You can check the AT-to-Command_ID mapping in Device info screen. Click on Manage clusters
, then select XBeeRemoteATRequest cluster, and you would find the mapping in the Cluster Commands
dropdown list.
Here is an example for the temperature sensor of an XBee Pro, you can get its value with TP command:
template:
- trigger:
- platform: event
event_type: zha_event
event_data:
device_ieee: 00:13:a2:00:41:98:23:f9
command: tp_command_response
sensor:
- name: "XBee Temperature"
state: '{{ trigger.event.data.args.response }}'
unit_of_measurement: "°C"
device_class: temperature
state_class: measurement
automation:
- alias: Update XBee Temperature
trigger:
platform: time_pattern
minutes: "/5"
action:
service: zha.issue_zigbee_cluster_command
data:
ieee: 00:13:a2:00:41:98:23:f9
endpoint_id: 230
command: 0x43
command_type: server
cluster_type: out
cluster_id: 33
params: {}
