Zemismart zigbee roller shade integration without zemismart zigbee hub is possible?

Dears,

I have the zemismart roller shade, battery powered, with ZigBee and without the zemismart ZigBee controller. I have HA with the conbee stick and deconz integration. It’s possible to integrate the roller shade without buy the zemismart ZigBee hub?.

Yes, I have several and although you ,might not get all data, for example I don’t see battery, as long as you set the upper and lower limits using the remote it’s fine.

Dear itnasol,

Can you help me about how to integrate step by step?, because with deconz I tried to add as a switch but don’t find my device…

Thanks,

The first thing is to make sure it has not already been added to HA, check your Zigbee list if it is in there remove it.

Then you have to make sure the pairing is reset on the motor itself, so on mine I reset the motor by pressing the set key 5 times quickly. (Check your manual for this, on some it’s a hold for 10 seconds).

Each of these motors are slightly different annoyingly but they all work on a similar principle, you might have to refer to your manual.

1. Pair the remote that came with it.
	(On mine it was select a channel on the remote, I just left it on one. Press the 		 motor set key once, it should give you a Ding kind of sound, then press the up key 		 within 5 seconds…
2. Use the remote to set upper and lower limits. (On mine as follows)
   	A. Put blind in upper position using remote, press the set button (on mine this was 		   on the back of the remote) then press the up key on the remote.
  	B. Put blind in lower position using remote, press the set button (on mine this was 		   on the back of the remote) then press the down key on the remote.
4. Set the HA Zigbee discover mode, so it's searching for a device.
5. Press the set key on the motor.
6. You may have to hit the set key a couple of times while HA is searching, I had to do 	   it twice.

Hope this helps.

You use deconz and conbee zigbee stick?

Conbee stick but not deconz.

opsss, probably this is my problem, I’m using de deconz integration, I don’t use ZHA or zigbeetomqtt…

I don’t use MQTT, don’t need it, and although the ZHA is simple I have found it connects to anything and very stable I have over 120 devices.

Dear itnasol,

I deleted the deconz integration and intall the ZHA integration, I tried to perform all your steps, I press the set key but nothing appends in HA any device is added. If I try with a aqara thermometer it is added ok to ZHA, but impossible with the zemismart…

Any idea?

What model of motor is it?

It’s a Zemismart Blind Bear Chain Motor ZM85El-1Z

Ah ok with these you need to get HA in pairing mode, then press the motor set button once the quickly again and hold for a couple of seconds, what your looking for is a flashing light that stays for a minute or two.

Ohhh, it’s working now.

Thanks a lot itnassol!!!

No worries, glad I could help, could you please mark one of my replies as solved, that would be great… take care

Hi, is Zemismart blind motor working with ConbeeII stick ?
For me its not pairing, I can see the LED blinks and hear the beep sound, but then nothing happens as Phoscon is not detecting anything ?

Recently bought 2 Zemismart tubular motor ZM16 and could pair it easily to ZHA in combination with a Conbee II stick. Runs rocksolid. With deconz I had much more trouble to run my zigbee integration than with ZHA.
Have you got yours working now?

I bought two Zemismart ZM16EL-0.3/33. motors that I want to connect to Google Home.

The motors arrived with nice instructions for different models to connect blinds to remotes and also to the Tuya app.

I have tried for days to get the ZM16EL to connect to the Tuya app without success.

Steps taken are:-

Switch my phone to 2.4GHz only

Press the settings button x 3 quickly, there is a beep and the button flashes 3 times over a 5 second period, then stops.

I have tried adding device in the Tuya app by entering the various blind options in small home appliances

Any thoughts on what I am missing to pair the blind motors with the Tuya App?

I didn’t use the tuya app, can’t stand it… Set the upper and lower positions manually, then reset the Zigbee on the roller, this on mine was done with a long press, then get ZHA running and do 3 short presses, ZHA should find it… there is also a quirk you can add to check the battery level. I have all 12 blinds set up with the charging cable plugged in and tucked away to a Zigbee socket, when the battery drops below 20% it turns the switch on, I haven’t had to deal with them for months now.
