Hey @touliloup,
Did you manage to get Tradfri Dimmer working with ZiGate? 
No, it simply doesn’t appear to be possible. A limitation/function of the ZigBee protocol (the dimmer only address a lamp or a group of lamp directly).
Hi guys,
I come here for a little help.
I juste get my ZiGate and have issues to get it to work.
I updated it with the last firmware and tested it on windows 10. Everything was ok.
So, Home Assistant:
I created the “custom_components” folder within my config directory
then pasted the hole stuff (senso/switch/zigate/LICENSE/README)
Next, I modify my config.yaml by adding
# Enable ZiGate
zigate:
Am I correct?
Because I got an error:
Invalid config for [zigate]: string value is None for dictionary value @ data['zigate']['host']. Got None. (See ?, line ?). Please check the docs at https://home-assistant.io/components/zigate/
PS: I’m running the latest HA 0.67.1 and pasted the lates relase of homeassistant_zigate 0.1.3.post1
[EDIT: I downgraded to HA 0.66 and I no longer get errors]
So no problem for now ^^
Just in case, I just released 0.13.post2 with latest commits from Alex Barcelo : it runs fine with 0.67.1

Does anyone tested zigate with docker?
I use it in Docker.
Just added --device=/dev/ttyUSB0 to my docker run command.

I use it with HassIO. (Also docker) I did not need to change anything in my setup.
Might be different of course if using wifi or USB module
Using the usb connection, not wifi. (Between zigate and hassio that is)
Hi people,
I come back for a noob question.
Despite all my efforts an researches, I can’t make my zigate to work.
Everything seems to be set up correctly since I have no errors in the logs.
I tried to pair a temp/humid sensor (the round one)
I launch the zigate.permit_join thing and pair the sensor.
A message appears on the front panel saying it’s ok, and gives me an adress that I paste on my configuation.yaml
# Add sensor (previously registered with the ZiGate)
- platform: zigate
name: 'Température Chambre_2'
address: "e1ba"
default_state: temperature
default_unit: ‘°C’
But it’s not working. I got an empty sensor
The same appears with my Xiaomi Aqara light switche. I got an adress but… The switch lits up nothing
switch:
- platform: zigate
name: 'Interrupteur Chambre_1'
address: "94f5"
autotoggle_delay: 2
default_state: 'state'
type: 'toggle'
Each time I try to pair again, I get a new adress. Is it normal?
When I look in the log, it seems ok:

Do you have some ideas that could help?
Thanks a lot.
Add a “01” to each address (so e1ba01 and 94f501) as the endpoint is required in config
That should do …
Thanks a lot for your help.
Unfortunately, I don’t get anything better 
I’m using it with the latest version of HA and everything is OK
I think deconz has a solution for it.
IIRC its by having an empty light group defined that the dimmer is paired with.
Hello EveryOne,
I’m developper and i’d like to help.
Its my first python project but i’m not afraid
I’m having a lot a issues in order to use my local pyzigate library …
In my docker :
- Git clone zigate
- change setup.py with new versionning : version=‘0.1.3.test1’
- Change hass_custom_component zigate version (init.py) : pyzigate==0.1.3.test1
- Do change on Zigate lib
- cd ZIGATE_FOLDER
- python setup.py install
- pip install --upgrade .
I’m still not seeing my new logs … any idea ?
Hi,
I’m not a developper at all, but I think I have noticed a typo.
Isn’t it “custom_component”?

for it to work that way, you have to publish your pyzigate library to pipy (so that it is automatically downloaded by HASS)
A quick & dirty solution would be to identify where the lib is installed in your docker image and replace it with your version
Even if i do :
- remove old file : rm -rf /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pyzigate*
- pip install …
- /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pyzigate/interface.py | grep “NEEEW” => new line is here
still no new logs 
in hass
What do you mean no new log?
Did you configure zigate in Home-Assistant? Did you restart Home-Assistant?
What is in Home-Assistant log?
of course, everything is configured since the beginning.
I run python in debug mode,and the library is load in the folder :
/CONFIG_FOLDER/deps/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pyzigate
Now i can debug my developpements.
