What @Robin said and also post the code for the automation as you have it right now.

dextm80 · January 25, 2019, 8:57pm

finity · January 25, 2019, 9:07pm

dextm80 · January 25, 2019, 9:38pm

@finity sorry

- id: update_networkmap
  alias: 'Zigbee Map Update'
  hide_entity: true
  trigger:
    platform: time_pattern
    minutes: "/10"
    seconds: 0
  action:
    service: zigbee2mqtt_networkmap.update

finity · January 25, 2019, 10:05pm

as far as I can see it should be triggering every 10 minutes.

What are you looking at to tell you when the automation was last ran?

dextm80 · January 25, 2019, 10:13pm

156Z

finity · January 26, 2019, 12:02am

I’m not sure what that is that you’re looking at.

look here at the last_triggered time instead:

if it’s not there then remove “hide_entity: true” from the automation and check it again.

Your automation is not active. Set the state to on

dextm80 · January 26, 2019, 5:35pm

Thanks! How do i remove milliseconds of update? Now i seen 13.05.04.345432

Robin · January 26, 2019, 5:55pm

You can create a template sensor and specify your own format.

dextm80 · January 26, 2019, 8:47pm

Ok, thanks @Robin.
Now i’ve another problem, anyone have this?

no line between coordinator and device

I get that when something in my network is screwed up (zigbee USB stick unpluged, etc), but I don’t see it unless something isnt working right as far as i know.

I’ve also changed to using the edge version of zigbee2mqtt since it seems the network map generation works much better, FWIW.

boggiano · January 26, 2019, 9:16pm

Forgive me, how can I switch to the edge version ?

Silicon_Avatar · January 26, 2019, 9:48pm

Assuming you’ve added https://github.com/danielwelch/hassio-zigbee2mqtt as a repo in the addon store, as that’s how you got Zigbee2MQTT in the first place, there are 2 addons it lets you install. Zigbee2MQTT & Zigbee2MQTT-Edge. Screenshot Example.

Install the edge version, stop the stable version, edit the edge version so it’s config matches, then start the edge version.

The network maps it generate correctly show the network mesh (or more precisely, how the router devices form a mesh), in a way the stable version doesn’t seem to do, at least for me.

Example:

Thanks @Silicon_Avatar, unfortunately I am using Hassbian.

@Robin This is great, thank you.

Any chance to change the font in the map?
i´ve used the following for the footer class.

      color: #212121;
      font-family: Roboto, sans-serif;
      -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
      -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
      font-weight: 400;
      font-size: 14px;

I think the font should already be set by zigbee2mqtt when creating the dot string. But not all fonts can be used without problems:
