Hello there,
First time posting in the forums so please forgive any mistakes, I hope I’m doing it right.
I’m kinda newbie with all home automation and things but I am a bit technical and can understand complex CLI instructions.
By adopting HASS I wanted to be in an open source environment and not cloud-dependant.
Here are a few informations I thought would be useful.
Hardware:
Raspberry pi 3+
Sonoff Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus
No bluetooth, no wifi, both disabled on purpose
Software:
HASS OS 2023.1.7
ZHA
MQTT with Mosquitto broker (I don’t know if it’s relevant)
I’m trying to make this switch work for 2 full days now, I don’t know what to try anymore.
So, I bought a legrand switch wireless “green power”, the 600085L.
HASS documentation says I need to register in the cloud service integration “Home Assistant Cloud Netatmo”. Which I did (despite not liking relying on a cloud service).
Then the documentation says I need “Legrand Home+ Control” which says “not configured, please follow documentation” that leads here.
Then it starts to get messy.
Documentation asks me to register to a dev API, now deprecated, following an obscure multiple subscription process (I felt the doc needs an update) and I should receive some informations by email, that I never received.
If I follow the switch installation documentation nothing is detected obviously. Maybe because I don’t have any wired netatmo stuff, or anything the documentation mentions, except the switch I bought.
I don’t know what to do anymore. So I have several questions, and I’d like some advices too
- Is this switch compatible with my installation? If so, what did I miss?
- Is there any scenario switch without wifi, preferably green powered (wireless, no battery), that works directly with HASS, without any cloud service required?
Honestly, I thought it would be easier to include a switch in my home automation. I don’t want to depends on a prorietary protocol, but damn that’s not for everyone.
Thank you for any form of help. I wish you a great day.
