Hi guys,

Any update on this topic? I have https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Wireless-Zigbee-CC2531-Sniffer-Packet-Protocol-Analyzer-Module-USB-Interface-Dongle-Capture-Packet/32769663830.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.YGtx55 and was wondering if there is any hope for me to use this as a dongle to control zigbee devices.

Any update? As people have said this is a dirt cheap solution which would be great to be able to use. There is this project:

It already works in openHAB.

I use nodejs and the project https://github.com/AndrewLinden/xiaomi-zb2mqtt.

I can control Xiaomi devices, nos i want to create and local addon. But i have problems.

edit: I’m using hassbian and all ok. The comunication between HA y CC2532 is with mqtt.

This looks like a good candidate to support as a hass.io add-on!

How did you flash your CC2532? Did you get a CC.Debugger TI or using Arduino with some mods?

I programmed a CC2531 with one of these:

CC2531 programmer

and one of these to step down the ribbon cable from the programmer to fit the small header on the CC2531:

Cable adapter

The programming was straight forward, it took longer to find the correct firmware and windows USB driver!

And don’t download version 2 of the flasher…

Has this one been mentioned: https://github.com/zigbeer/cc-znp ??

I just buy a TI kit include CC2530 and CC2531. I want to make it work with HA. Anyone experience with this?

Frans-Willem has built a C++ software replacement for the Xiaomi Gateway using CC2531 stick and communicating via MQTT: https://github.com/Frans-Willem/AqaraHub
Works like a charm with my Xiaomi devices. Has anyone the knowledge to put it into an add-on?

nice find. Could be a great hassio addon

I am trying to use https://github.com/Frans-Willem/AqaraHub and add a Xiaomi motion sensor.
Do you know how should I interpret this map that I receive in json through MQTT:
AqaraHub/report/<sensor_id>/1/Occupancy Sensing/Occupancy: {“type”:“map8”,“value”:[true,false,false,false,false,false,false,false]} ?

The Xiaomi motion sensor is identified as lumi.sensor_motion.aq2
