Extend Timeframe for device adoption?

Hi,
is it possible to extend the time for adding devices?

You can program it in an automation and have the timer with the time you´d like.
But is 5 minutes not enough? one device should not take you longer than that surely. If you need more time, you can just stop and start and the clock restarts.

I have 96 sensors that need to be paired again. It’s just annoying to repress the button.

I’d love a “allow until disable” button

In the “old days” I recall an automation like below. This should work and then you do not have a timer.

# Switch for enabling joining
switch:
  - platform: mqtt
    name: "Zigbee2MQTT Main join"
    state_topic: "zigbee2mqtt/bridge/config/permit_join"
    command_topic: "zigbee2mqtt/bridge/config/permit_join"
    payload_on: "true"
    payload_off: "false"

Thanks, I’ll try that.

Use the setting in Z2M under Settings > Settings > permit join. This is enabled until the next restart of the Add-on.

There’s another place where you can enable it (without a timer) in the config sceen of the Add-on, but I don’t remember exactly where. :slight_smile:

As you see on the other posts, this is one of the good kept secrets in Z2M. :rofl: :rofl: Don’t you worry, how do you think I knew about that…? :rofl: :rofl:
