Anyone use zigbee2mqtt to received data from xiaomi aqara temperature sensors? All work ok… But when I poweroff raspberry (i’m still config it so it’s not powered on 24h at the moment) and power on after hours or day later, temperature is not updated and still remain to last value (i’ve set retain to true). To update values for each xiaomi sensor i’ve to push little button under the sensor… It seems they go to sleep when raspberry is not online…?
Hello! I finally got this working. I have info about device in zigbbee2mqtt logs:
zigbee2mqtt:info 2018-12-3 17:20:09 MQTT publish, topic: 'zigbee2mqtt/0x00158d00022833b3', payload: '{"temperature":23.73,"linkquality":47,"humidity":43.39}'

But I can not find that entity_id in services
Need some help on this…
And will I get battery info?
They update every few hours or when temperature changes. Try to put them in your freezer to see if they update.
You have to manually add them to your home assistant configuration or configure MQTT discovery. See the zigbee2mqtt wiki here.
Yes, mine took 12-24 hours but finally they did.
I am using hassio add-on. Should I still use that instruction?
I just can not figure out how to get devices as I have tried automatic and manual ways.
You can add autodiscovery true in mqtt
I did that
Actually, now I am getting this issue:
Error doing job: Task exception was never retrieved

Pretty obvious that smth is wrong with connection to mqtt. But I do not know what exactly, because right now I can get info from water leak sensor on zigbee2mqtt logs
Never mind. I did not wrote user and password in config…
Now it works!
Hello there,
I’ve just managed to add the zigbee usb dongle to Raspberry and make it start.
Everything should be ok, it also found the only Phiiph hue lamp I’ve attached, it says:

zigbee2mqtt:info 2018-12-3 22:42:10 MQTT publish, topic: 'zigbee2mqtt/bridge/state', payload: 'online'
So, if you confirm that everything is ok, my biggest problem now is: how to use this bulb with home assistant???
I’ve tried the MQTT autodiscovery in HA configuration.yaml
mqtt:
broker: xxx.cloudmqtt.com
port: xxxxx
username: xxxxxx
password: xxxxx
discovery: true
birth_message:
topic: 'hass/status'
payload: 'online'
retain: true
will_message:
topic: 'hass/status'
payload: 'offline'
retain: true
But no devices are found… so I’ve tried
light:
- platform: mqtt
command_topic: 'zigbee2mqtt/0x0017880xxx6725da'
But it is not working at all…
What am I missing? What’s wrong?
Thanks in advance!
cc2530 as zigbee2mqtt co-ordinator
I can’t find any straight forward detailed instructions on how to flash the cc2530 with external aerial and then subsequently connect to my Intel NUC running ubuntu with hass.io installed to make a zigbee2mqtt co-ordinator.
Here is the device I have (cc2530 with external antenna)
I also have these for flashing chips
FTDI232 USB-TTL adapter
And I also have a 3x CC2531 USB sniffers
and the CCDebugger and CC2531 downloader cable
Thanks for any help, I’m really confused.

I got it flashed, but i’m stuck with this error

Install the correct version of Node.js(8.11.10) required by Zigbee2mqtt.

No they don’t update. I tried to bring it in one hand (fist). No changes until i push button. When i push button, after some seconds HA updates values of temp.
Are they not just going into power saving mode because they get no response from the server.
Why do you bother to power down even if you’re still setting it up?
What can be wrong if some xiaomi devices added and some did not? I have 4 smoke sensors, the are exactly the same, but two of them just can not connect to zigbee2mqtt. There is just nothing in logs, like there is no sensor. I tried 50 times and they are really close (half a meter) to raspberry.
And on some devices I get Cannot get the Node Descriptor of the Device: 0x00158d000222ff55 (Error: Timed out after 10000 ms) again and again
Ok thanks. Cause i’ll prefer this way… Until i’ve not mounted all my shelly1 i’ve no benefit to mantain raspberry powered on 24h… To see only weather and temps 
Not much benefit turning it off either 
May be try to change the batteries. I had simillar issues with my motion sensors. After switching the batteries between the sensors, it worked better (however, not perfekt).
Does anyone know if this supports the Xiaomi Yeelight Smart LED Light Strips?
I don’t have them, but I am pretty sure the yeelights use WiFi (not Zigbee). This component is for Zigbee devices.
Ah. You’re correct. Thanks!
