ZigBee compatibility question

tl;dr Can I get this SmartThings Outlet to talk directly to this Xbee coordinator? Namely without having a SmartThings hub.

Background. I am brand new to Home Assistant and home automation in general. As a maker, electronics hobbiest, and programmer, I am coming at this a bit different than most. I have the above Xbee radio (setup as a coordinator) plugged into my Raspberry Pi, which is running Hassio/HomeAssistant. As a simple test I picked up the above SmartThings Outlet, and want to control it via Home Assistant.

I was hoping to use XCTU and scan and find the SmartThings Outlet. But its not of course, not without AT LEAST knowing the PAN ID set in the outlet. I assume there is more though. Most of the resources I find on this involve having a SmartThings hub and joining into an existing network, then copying security settings and stuff. But again, I dont have a SmartThings Hub.

Does anyone know if I can accomplish this with my setup? If not, is there another zigbee outlet that will?

FYI, I do have a working zigbee network. I have Home Assistant successfully talking to a zigbee router (via the zigbee coordinator plugged into Home Assistant).

I’m using the the Linear HUSBZB-1 and don’t have that exact outlet paired but imagine it’s a CentraLite inside as many recent SmartThings devices are, and the Linear stick works well with most of those. They are ZigBee devices that use the ZHA 1.2 protocol. I haven’t seen anything about the XBee you have being used for ZHA, at least not within Home Assistant. It might be possible, and in that case, I don’t have an answer to your actual question. However, if you’re just looking for a way to make it (or many ZHA devices) work with HASS, the Linear stick is what most people use. (This works via the “zha” component in HASS, not the “zigbee” component, by the way.) Hope this helps if you haven’t figured anything else out already. Good luck!
