CC2531 + Osram Bulb

Hello,

I have configured 1 cc2531 stick as my Zigbee hub on my RP4.
So far, I can easily add Xiaomi sensors and other Xiaomi Zigbee devices.

Then I wanted to extend the range of the Zigbee network, and I was told to use some bulbs around the house. So I bought 2 Osram Bulbs.

Now I am not sure how to setup those to handle/extend the network?
Can I do it with my cc2531, or do I have to have a Osram Hub?

It is in the documentation

I think so, it is this one: https://www.lavprisel.dk/osram-smart-classic-85w-tunable-white-e27-zigbee-63654?gclid=CjwKCAjw7-P1BRA2EiwAXoPWAyriq8o6v04yP39KCpqxERV06_8VZRYbF3YxTvBED_kLp_mk6nS4xRoCCMEQAvD_BwE

You did not read the documentation I posted :frowning:

Make sure your CC2531 is ready for pairing !

Manual Reset

Step 1: Start with the Tunable lightbulb powered ON .

Step 2: Turn it OFF for 5 seconds.

Step 3: Turn it ON for 5 seconds.

Step 4: Turn it OFF for 5 seconds.

Step 5: Turn it ON for 5 seconds.

Step 6: Turn it OFF for 5 seconds.

Step 7: Turn it ON for 5 seconds.

Step 8: Turn it OFF for 5 seconds.

Step 9: Turn it ON for 5 seconds.

Step 10: Turn it OFF for 5 seconds.

Step 11: Turn it ON and leave it ON . The lightbulb should blink 2 times to show a successful reset and ready for pairing.

Sorry for hijacking, but you don’t happen to know, if the Osram bulbs are working with ZHA as well? I’ve recently switched from zigbee2mqtt to ZHA and I can’t get these Osram bulbs to work. They always get shown as unk_manufacturer and unk_model, show up again even after force_remove, but i can’t control them in any way…

Check zigbee.blakadder.com, but the only Osram bulb I see there is this one (and some GU10’s)

Thanks for the quick quide, I managed to see it trying to get in to HA now, but I get this messages:

So I guess it is not supported?

Thanks, I think unfortunately you are right, as my post before tells that it is unsupported!? ): Is that really true?

What will you recommend me to use to extend my Zigbee network? Should I buy the Ikea Trådløs?
Og some other repeaters?

I forgot that the bulp I was testing was this:

I will test the other bulb I posted, tomorrow.

What version of zigbee2mqtt are you running ? There is at least one B40 Tunable White listed on the supported device-list.

I’m running 1.13.0 now

Okay so far, I got it to work with the Osram Smart+ Classic 8,5W Tunable White E27 ZigBee.

So it looks like it is “just” the Osram Smart+ Candle 6W Tunable White E14 ZigBee that doesn’t work…

I have a stupid question, and I hope you can tell me…

If I turn off the light/bulb in the contact on my wall, the light goes off, but will the Osram Bulb still be able to repeat Zigbee signal? I guess not, as the power gets turned off, but I just want to be sure :slight_smile:

No. The power must stay on to act as a repeater.

Of course, thanks for replying

If you have compatibility issues with a device in the ZHA integration component then might be able to sort out that issue by developing a custom ZHA Device Handler (a.k.a. “zha-quirk”) for that device, see:

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/zha/

ZHA exception and deviation handling

Zigbee devices that deviate from or do not fully conform to the standard specifications set by the Zigbee Alliance may require the development of custom ZHA Device Handlers (ZHA custom quirks handler implementation) to for all their functions to work properly with the ZHA integration in Home Assistant. These ZHA Device Handlers for Home Assistant can thus be used to parse custom messages to and from Zigbee devices.

The custom quirks implementations for zigpy implemented as ZHA Device Handlers for Home Assistant are a similar concept to that of Hub-connected Device Handlers for the SmartThings Classics platform as well as that of Zigbee-Shepherd Converters as used by Zigbee2mqtt, meaning they are each virtual representations of a physical device that expose additional functionality that is not provided out-of-the-box by the existing integration between these platforms.
