Another component for ZiGate

As you can see the entity_id is different from the real addr, this is because the entry exists in your entity_registry file, so HA use the customized entity_id instead of the new one.

This is a good point, because it means that you can paire again a device without loosing all your automation, group, etc

[brugk000 (Kees)]

Short pushing the button does not work.
Can I completely remove the entity_id from the database and start all over?

[doudz]

You just have to edit the entity_registry.yaml file and restart HA.

You can choose a custom entity_id or just remove it to let HA recreate it

[brugk000 (Kees)]

Still nu luck.
removed the entity_id from the yaml file and repaired.
got a new zigate entity and was removed after resetting HA.
attributes updating. strange.

also strange that it is not reporting as a binary_sensor

[doudz]

You don’t have to paire again.
Some device just don’t send type

[brugk000 (Kees)]

It is still not working. Entity_id is in the yaml file but not showing up in the dev-info entity list.

It is still not working. Entity_id is in the yaml file but not showing up in the dev-info entity list.

This is what i get pairing a aqara temp/pressure/humidity sensor.
Is this right?

Some further information. This is from the log file:

[doudz]

It looks perfect

[brugk000 (Kees)]

But why is the enity disappered after a reset.
How can i solve this?

[doudz]

What do you name a reset ?

[brugk000 (Kees)]

A reset off HA

[max5962]

Migration done.
1/ It seems presence update is longer that before
Do you observe the same delay ?

2/ i’m getting “The ZiGate device 1386 needs some refresh (missing important information)” at every startup.
What does that mean ?

You need to call service zigate.refresh_device
with data {“addr”:“1386”}

If device is on battery you also need to push link button directly after calling the services

Devices already paired are supported, the system tries to discover their capabilities and then create according entities (sensor, switch, etc) but since devices running on battery sleep most of the time this discovery could not happen, because the device doesn’t answer. So the system will create entities only when the device talk to zigate. For other device like bulbs, it’s not a problem because they are always listening so the discovery works. At pairing time, device running on battery liste…

Thanks @biau
For aqara device, is it possible to disable that message ? ( because device never anwser ? )

@doudz
EDIT : is it possible de add the date of the last successfully “reponse received” in order to detect unbind device ?

EDIT 2 : THere is a way to automatcaly pool device in order to prevent “leave” command send by the zigate ( when device do no comunicate ) ?

On a refresh to get the entity_id, i get the following response:

Just tested the latest github release and it works great with the entity’s now.
Got them all back after a HA reset. Thank you so much for this great work.
My aqara presense motion sensor is working fine, alse the luminosity part.
I must test my Ikea tradfri E27 bulb and LED1650R5 led spot now.
Again, thanks for your great work.[quote=“brugk000, post:98, topic:58417, full:true”]

Just tested the Ikea tradfri light. The E27 bulb works fine. Can switch the light on and off and controll the brightness.
The LED16505R5, when it is off I can switch it on, but the switch behaves like a toggle switch.
I can controll the brightness though.

What ???

[vincentsaluzzo]

I see also that. without more details

If it’s real, I will continue the project on my side, but i’m not a python expert so it could take more time to evolve than before probably…

[doudz]

I just stop this project for some reasons (not related to zigate itself)

Feel free to fork it, I won’t developp for zigate anymore.
