Hi everyone,
I have two zigbee controllers for exteral window shutters - both looking the same, both TZ130F:
However I noticed that when I tell google to, for example, close all of the shutters, all non-zigbee close alone with one of the mentioned, while the second zigbee stays open.
I compared their description in google home, and it looks like one is being reported by homeassistant as shutter and other as blinds!
Knowing this I compared devices in HA itself, and in zigbee cluster management I found the following:
I assume it uses the same mechanism, but it turned out that itâs as easy as setting in HA web gui details/settings for this device as âshow as: shuttersâ
Leaving that here in case someone else runs into the same issue. Or for me when I forget about it
Hey everyone! So, Iâve been diving into the world of Zigbee shutters, and Iâve hit a bit of a snag right at the starting line â the wiring. It seems like Iâm stuck in âStep 0â territory! Could use a bit of guidance here. If anyone out there has conquered this hurdle, mind lending a hand (or a picture)? Iâd love to take a peek at your wiring setup for some inspiration! Letâs shed some light on this together!
Oh, man. I know I will sound like some guys on an electronic forum I visit from time to time - but if youâre having problems with this, it might mean you should not tinker with it⌠Call an electrician, as youâre dealing with 110/230V here.
Saying the above my conscience is clear, so here comes the advice (and also because I donât want to be âthat guysâ):
I assume what I am looking at is ground from shutter connected to your installation grounding (that stays as it is), Neutral from shutter connected to your mains neutral, and phase coming in and being routed by two positions switch directly to the motor. IF thatâs the case, after turning breakers off:
Leave ground as it is
Disassemble N
Disassemble phase and motor from the switch
For next steps it would be good to use some method of connecting multiple wires commonly used in your country - whether it would be screwed together or WAGO (my personal favorite)
Split mains neutral
a) connect it to previously disconnected shutter N, it still needs it =)
b) connect it to N of the controller, it badly needs it too
Split main phase
a) connect it to L of controller
b) connect it to input of the switch
Each output of the switch has to be connected to control inputs of the controller, one for up, other for down
Up and Down motor outputs of the controller need to be connected to the wires going back to the motor - the ones previously connected to the switch
