I recently started with HA as I want to automate my roller shutters which are equipped with Merten/Schneider Wiser Shutter Switches (MEG5116-0300). The Wiser Gateway is not an option anymore as it is very unstable on its Wifi-only connection.
My current setup is a Pi 3 running HA with a PoE Zigbee Coordinator based on TI CC2652P.
I was able to integrate all my shutter switches via the Zigbee Coordinator.
However the current cover position feedback is inverted and the Up/Down running times are on their default values (120 sec), therefore not giving me the right values.
I am currently using cover templates adapting for the position inversion aswell as the running times. This is, of course, a very messy adaptation to the differences in shutter lengths and running times often resulting in “unknown” states.
My next step was to take a look at the documentation of the Zigbee cluster attributes where indeed “manufacturer specific” attributes can be set.
My idea is now to navigate to the right attribute and write the right values to the shutter switches. In my case Endpoint 5 → Cluster ID 0x0102 → Attribute ID 0xE014 (LiftDriveUp time) an set it to 250 (tenths of a second).
However this is where I am stuck. Using ZHA toolkit I tried writing and reading values to and from the attributes but with no success. The only feedback is “none”.
P.S. I tried setting the manufacturer code to 4190 (Schneider Electric) but no change.
Here’s a little update on the Wiser modules configuration:
I was able to configure the Up/Down running times with ZHA toolkit. All it needed was a reboot, then it worked like a charm.
For anyone who wants to configure these modules, the manufacturer code (4190) is only to be set when writing to manufacturer specific attributes. Setting it for the other attributes didn’t work for me.
As for now the current position feedback is correct. However there is still a need for cover templates as the lift percentages are inverted. Apparently Schneider inverted this after version 2.6.x as stated in their documentation.
Hi did you get anywhere with your system? I only have a few different wiser devices (powerplug, motion, and temp sensors) all work instantly with zha. Nearly gave up on the powertag untill i removed it and the gateway from wisers app and added them in the tuya smart app instead. Now they both show in the tuya cloud api which is something i guess.
I’ve only added the Dimmer Switch so far… I have 55 devices with Wiser, and I think the functionality is worse with Zigbee2MQTT so I decided to not move anything more than that for now.
Hi.
I have Wiser Exxact thermostat (WDE002497) connected over ZHA.
Basic things work, controlling on/off and target temperature. Also it reports when its heating mode.
There is also “Instantaneus demand” and “Summation delivered” that show 0.
Far as I understood device wont measure power but in their own hub you would define power of heating element.
Does someone know how this could be configured to these?
Also curious are we able to configure display timeouts?
Hi everyone,
Here’s a new update on my Wiser environment. I successfully managed to integrate the following devices using ZHA via a Zigbee gateway (based on TI CC2652P):
CCTFR6501 Plug Socket (recognized as Heiman brand)
CCT599002 Smoke detector
MEG2380 Schuko Socket
MEG5116 1-gang push button with switch module
MEG5126 2-gang push button with dimmer module
MEG5126 2-gang push button with roller module
Recently two new functions popped up in the device settings:
The tilt position for lift and tilt blinds can now be read and set.
It is now possible to invert the shutter direction in the device settings. This is what I needed, however it also inverts the physical button. So I am staying with the templates for now.
This is kinda how I acquired my Wiser TRVs, before all the TRVs became mainstream IOT stuff. It was a second had set and some extra TRVs for 10 EUR each or something similar.
Ok, I have also bought some Wiser stuff just to try it out. Would really want to use the Wiser app in paralell with HA but dont know if this is possible? I thought it would be possible to add all devices in the wiser app and then add the gateway to HA and it would recognize all added devices but It does not seems like it?
But I do get a notification in HA about a Tuya that is discovered, but I dont know how to add it as I dont have any Access ID or Access secret for it… Anyone has a clue about it or how to add everything in both HA and Wiser app?
You need to install the Drayton Wiser integration via HACs. This is local only communication with your Wiser hub and will allow use of Wiser App and HA together.
The Wiser gateway available in Sweden is not the same as the “drayton” gateway, there is no (known) way of getting hold of the api key.
You can just add schneider wiser devices directly to HA if you have a zigbee network. I use zigbee2mqtt myself and (most) scheider wiser devices join just fine.
Though for generic stuff like temp meters, behind wall switch pucks and door sensors, you can probably find much cheaper stuff.
