Hi,
I tested this with BME280 temp sensor. No matter if I choose Router or End device without routing – The board drains arround 25-30 mAmps. No matter if I schedule report every 15 sec or every 500 sec – power drain is always similar (slighlty higher with often reports – arround 30 mA, when idle -20-25 mA)
Why this board does not go to sleep automatically like in a precompiled ZNP with SBL?
do you have maybe .eww workspace with sample I2C temp sensor?
I Installed IAR and loaded standard ZNP with SBL from Z-Stack 3.0.2
Owner
Only the “PSM” version can sleep. But it requires the Premium version.

hi,
so I’m trying to connect my DL-20 CC2530 module, eventually with DS18B20 sensors. Flashed with the configured firmware from ptvo, it gets paired, interview completed (within a sec), but no topic shows up in mqtt explorer or anything beside the interview in the log. When alternativly flashed with the hex from Z-Stack-firmware/router/Z-Stack_Home_1.2/bin/CC2530_router_2020_09_29.zip at least I can see a LED status, and a topic ect.. But there I can’t customize sensors ect.
Here is my hex config as txt:
Board type: CC2530
Device type: End device without routing
device type router, and/or incl. Led, inputs, no better result.
Am I missing something?
Owner
You didn’t configure any inputs and outputs. The mentioned old firmware in the archive based on other code.
hackbard
thanks. I did try with configured LED and outputs, but never had even a topic show up in mqtt explorer. (I’m using Z2M)
Owner
I can only guess. Firstly, check clusters and states in Z2M. You can open an issue on Github and attach a screenshot of your configuration.
hackbard
states is empty, clusters has 8 endpoints with no specifics. I posted an issue on https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt/issues/21895
thanks

Uncle Buzz
I would like to report over Zigbee some results of any automatic system like a door chicken driven by an ATMEGA328. Instead of using some GPIO as output on ATMEGA328 to send boolean status to the PTVO device to send those statuses over Zigbee, is it possible to send any type of data by “talking” to the PTVO device with serial communication?
For example, sending the time spent to close the door, the maximum current consumed by the motor, a byte word to send a status from an enum instead of some boolean status?
Is your firmware able to do such things (and do you have any documentation or examples ?) or is it only able to drive directly sensors and IO ?
Owner
You can send any text data through UART directly to your coordinator.
https://ptvo.info/zigbee-configurable-firmware-features/uart/
Uncle Buzz
Thank you for your answer! But I would like to send over Zigbee some booleans, analog data, bytes, like you do if you directly connect sensors to the PTVO module, but instead of reading ADC pin, Input pin of the PTVO module, sending those values to the PTVO module through UART, who can be text, but I don’t want to send text over Zigbee.
Maybe your firmware is for standalone sensors/actuators, but it can’t act as a Zigbee frontend for another µcontroller ?
Mathilde D
hello,
Can you tell me the card with the smallest format that can operate on battery?
I want to interface a zigbee card with a box to simulate the support of 3 buttons (low state, zero volt when I press a button) with premium firmware
Do you think this solution possible?
Best regards
Owner
Why not? You can use the Ebyte E18 module. It is compact.
Mathilde D
thank you!
Is it E18 exists without power amplifier? What are the references that do not have?
Owner
You need E18-MS1-PCB. It does not include a power amplifier.
https://www.ebyte.com/en/product-view-news.aspx?id=122
FRancis
Hello Mathilde
Did you finalize your project using E18 device?
If Yes I suppose E18-MS1PA2
does it work well ?
I just want to have one ON/OFF press button reported to the router using this kind of small device.

Hi, thanks for your great job…
Is it possible to make custom firmware for my prototype project?
it should need cost to me…

Which Zigbee stack is used when selecting CC2530 device?
Owner
The firmware used Z-Stack 1.2 for CC2530 and CC2531.
Andy
Hello,
how to enable the PA control pins for the ebyte modules? I followed your hints on
https://ptvo.info/zigbee-configurable-firmware-features/e18-ms1pa2-ipx/
but nothing happens on P10 and P11 – checked with a oscilloscope. My boards are E18-TBH-01 (E18-MS1PA2-PCB) and E18-TBH-27 (E18-2G4Z27SI) recently bought. Basic functions like in-and output, pulse generator are working, but not the rf part. So I assume the programming is ok. What may I did wrong? Must I declare the pins also as outputs with pull_*? The pins are the right ones – TX and RX enable. There is activity with the original firmware.
Thanks and best regards, Andy
Owner
Hello Andy.
I do not have any ideas for your case. But some users reported that Ebyte changes the amplifier type. Please try to upload the CC2530 + CC2592 or CC2530 + CC2591 firmware type instead.
Andy
Hello,
thanks for the quick reply!
I assume there must be something go wrong during the creation of the hex-file.
There should be some activity on the TX- and RX- enable pins, regardless of the amplifier type. I already tested all other variants but I can’t measuere any activities on the pins (P10, P11 or P12, P14) – (stay always low). Must I configure any other pin, eg. P07?
Or are these expert options only availiable in the premium version?
Christian
Hello, so interesting work…
Would you excuse my dummy question, but i didn’t understand if the software only connect with zigbee2mqtt , or is able to connect a zigbee gateway .
thanks for your answer
Owner
The firmware can be connected to any Zigbee gateway, but the most of them do not support custom devices. The connected device will appear as unsupported. Z2M is flexible and allows you to add custom converters for DIY devices.
JohnRob
This comment is a little late but for others with a similar inquiry.
I’ve been using the PTVO firmware to connect a CC2530 to my Hubitat Smart Hub. Works great. I do write my own Hubitat drivers however they are pretty basic and simple.
If additional information would help please look on the Hubitat community. I (or others) will see your post and likely be able to help.
JohnRob
rixlumb1
Hi JohnRob,
I also use Hubitat and learning groovy for drivers, and make my own sensors, previously with esp boards.
after creating an end device, I dont see how to pair (button), like a standard zigbee end device
I have access to buttons and leds onboard (CC2531 dongle)
Lupu
Hi,
By any chance, you have in plan to add stepper motor control, with a dedicated driver like A4988, LV8729
and settings for a specific number of steps for the Left-Right direction?
My goal is to build a roller blind controller.
Danny Mesters
I would like to know this too. Been looking for a battery powered powered solution to automate tilt function on my blinds. Found thehookup’s tutorial of using a nodemcu to automate and control the tilt function on horizontal blinds, but it is too energy consuming to be used with batteries. Would love to find a build in solution for 2” horizontal blinds for the tilt function, so if anybody knows a way without paying 150$ per blind please let me know.

Hello,
Chance to add support VEML6070?
Mario
Hi, is there a way to read the pm1006 sensor? It is a sensor present in the “AIR QUALITY SENSOR VINDRIKTNING” of ikea. It can be implemented with a common ESP board (https://github.com/Hypfer/esp8266-vindriktning-particle-sensor) it would be great if it also works with the zigbee network
Owner
Hi Mario. Sorry, but I cannot add all sensors in the world, and I will add the most popular sensors.
JohnRob
Does your software (which is awesome) able to read the AHT21 Temperature/Humidity sensor?
http://www.aosong.com/en/productslist-1.html
You have DHT22 listed which I believe is the same interface (maybe same part) but it is listed under 1 wire and the configuration software does not allow me to set an address for a DHT22 (so I think it is a different part)
If all this is true, will you be considering adding the ASONG AHT21?
Thanks
John
Owner
Hi John, I’m sorry, but the firmware does not support AHT21 and I didn’t place to add it. The firmware supports many others humidity and temperature sensors.
JohnRob
Again, thank you for you firmware and your support (answering questions) 🙂
I see Sensor Si7021 is supported. While I am waiting for mine to be delivered can you tell me if the heater commands are implemented?
Owner
Hi! What do you mean by “heater commands”?
JohnRob
The SI7012 has an internal heater. It can be energized and different levels to help remove moisture from the humidity sensor (on a cycle basis).
Owner
Oh. I see. No, the firmware does not use the internal heater at all.
JohnRob
Thank you for you’re quick response. You firmware does many awesome things, I understand it can’t do everything 🙂
Lukasz
I have one question, if i buy one license, u will send me a premium software (with serial number for my one board, and for that one board i can compile diffrent option for test) or u just compile program that i want and send me just hex ?
I want use power-saving features but first i need play on that board a little 🙂
Owner
I’ll send you a license key. You’ll enter it in the program on your computer when you save HEX
Łukasz
And other question is, how i can connect to my ZigBee main coordinator device that i make with yours configurator ? I need add some button to put in pairing mode ?
Owner
Z2M has a converter for my firmware. Also, you can generate and adjust a custom converter on the Expert tab and add it to Z2M.

Dr. No
My Home automation use a Raspberry Pi, Domoticz, with KOENKK Zigbee2MQTT. Browsing supported devices, I just find DIY PTVO which is perfect to me. As a pure hardware man, I searched such a firmware since a while.
I need to create some IOT Modules which don’t exist like an automatic watering with several channels or a dry contact switch (mains or DC powered) 2 examples among many others.
I intend to use one of EBYTE radio modules; the E18-MS1PA1-PCB for example:
https://www.ebyte.com/en/product-view-news.aspx?id=121
– What do you think of this module, may I use it?
– KOENKK don’t describe how to pair this device a little help would be welcome.
– Do I need a button to initiate pairing? Which port?
Owner
1. It is a good and well-known module for DC-powered devices.
2. The firmware starts pairing immediately after flashing (https://ptvo.info/zigbee-configurable-firmware-features/general-info/).
3. It is optional. You can configure it on any pin and the “Input #1” channel.
Dr. No
Many thanks for your quick answer
By continuing to read your blog (there is a lot to read), I just saw that you were already using EBYTE modules.
Still one point; The LED, wired to GND or VDD?
Owner
In my case, it is wired to GND.
Olivier
Hello from France,
Great job, and your work seems very helpful for people who want to make their own sensor.
I’m interested in power battery mode, but not by a wake up by PIN trigger.
My aim is to wake up every X seconds, to send data then, to sleep.
I know the the power consumption is greater than a full wake up, but I have no choice when there is no PIN to trigger.
1 – Is this functionaliy is planned in the futur ?
2 – Is is possible to test the PSM mode before to get Premium ?
Thanks a lot for your involvement.
Owner
Hi.
The device with the PSM firmware will work as you described if you enabled periodic reports (an interval is not zero). Sorry, but you can’t test PSM without the Premium version.
Angel
Hello, I have a problem with the stability of the software. I have prepared a separate kit for the test:
Software: Zigbee2MQTT version 1.18.3.
Transmitter: CC2538 + CC2592 Firmware: 20201010.
I programmed two different models and made the pairing. Everything works fine for 24-48 hours. After this time, both client devices stop connecting. It does not help to disconnect the devices and the transmitter from the power supply.
After switching the transmitter to the permit_join:true mode, the devices will pair themselves again. Where is the problem?
I am sending a link to the zigbee2mqtt logo and settings uploaded to client devices.
For information, other Xiaomi devices, etc. are working properly, I do not have to pair again every 24 hours.
http://sysiq.pl/dane/pliki/210615/foto_01.jpg
http://sysiq.pl/dane/pliki/210615/log.txt
I am asking for help, it is impossible to use the software with such a problem.
Owner
Hello. Do you use CC2538 + CC2592 as a coordinator? Please, try to enable the “Disable device resettings by power-off cycle” option on the “Expert” tab.
frederic
About “Added an option to disable resetting by a power on/off cycle.”
Thanks for adding this feature !
Owner
You are welcome!
George
Good day!
please tell me, your firmware supports TDS, NTC and PH sensors, if not, how can I help you to add them?
Owner
Hi. The firmware does not support these sensors directly, but it can measure analog signal levels.
Henri
Hi,
Thanks for this great project, I do have a small question. When assigning P07, P10 or P11 on a board type CC2530 + CC2592 I get an error message that these outputs are usually used for PA control. I tried to find any reference to this error on your site but could not find any. Can you explain what is causing this error ?
Owner
Hi,
You cannot use these pins on a board type CC2530 + CC2592 because CC2592 already uses these pins.
Henri
Thanks for the quick answer, It seems that is was documented wrong on the site, it stated that I it was a CC2530 + CC2592 but it actually is CC2530 board. I will re-compile and upload it. Another nice feature would also be to be able to link a button directly to 2 outputs. When controlling blinds or shutters, you want to activate 1 relais for ‘down’ or 2 relais for ‘up’. Of course you can program this in node-red but direct link would still allow control even if mqtt server or node-red is down.
Owner
You can use a group switch for this task.
https://ptvo.info/zigbee-configurable-firmware-features/group-switch/
SorryLady
I turned off the gpio status report, why when reset the device still reports the status of endpoin? Can you help me turn it off?
Owner
Did you set the reporting interval to 0? Did you enable the “Disable configuring the interval remotely” option on the Expert tab?

Have two quick questions about this great firmware:
1. I see the Sensirion SPS30 is supported, can i also use the SCD30 (CO2) sensor? Or do you need to add this sensor?
2. Do you think a battery powered end-device will be possible in future firmware updates?
Owner
Hi,
1. Yes, I should add this sensor before.
2. Yes, I’m working on it.

Hi,
just flashed your firmware to a cheap CC2531 (see below) stick in order to use it to control my „smart“ power meter. I already configured and tested a counter and it works.
However, I don‘t know neither the correct firmware settings for the onboard LED, nor how to configure „internal temperature“ and „voltage“.
Any chance you might help, please?

Hi, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, but I’m using a few cc2530 with the latest FW and zigbee2mqtt and Home Assistant, unfortunately I can’t configure more than 5 outputs, although they see 8 in HA, but they don’t work from 6. Thank you for your help.
Owner
Sorry, but I cannot help with HA. Could you try to send commands directly through MQTT and zigbee2mqtt?
EmU
Hey thanks a lot for your great software. Have it already used in some nice projects
Would it be a possible (with a reasonable effort for you) to add a rotary encoder to the supported device list. I was planing to build this media knob as a battery powered device and the cc2530 seems to be a good micro controller for this type of project. But till now your Firmware seems to be the only where I can just imagine to get this thing up and running.
https://blog.prusaprinters.org/3d-print-an-oversized-media-control-volume-knob-arduino-basics_30184/
And maybe a rotary encoder could also be used for other great projects with the cc2530 and your firmware.
Thanks a lot just for a answer
Owner
Sorry, I do not plan to add this encoder.
Wojciech
Hello,
please take a look on this project https://github.com/kakaki/esphome_dietrich.
This is connection with Boiler Die Dietrich using ESP8266 base on wifi chip.
It is possible that your Firmware can do this using CC2530 somehow with zigbee ?
What do you think?
Thx
Wojtek
Owner
Hello. No, my firmware cannot communicate with Dietrich.

Hi, i’m preparing a site where i would like to publish my works with a zigbee board (that i designed) and this firmware. Can i link there your site and use screenshots of your software?
If you want you can also use my projects designes in your cookbook section.
Let me know, thank you.
Owner
Hi, Yes, of course, you can link to my website and use images and screenshots.
Xap
Hello,
First of all, THANK YOU, I tried to use the TI environment but this firmware did my life really easy.
I want to request one feature… as you know the output power of gpio is only 4ma (except two pins). To use in some applications is not enougth, but we have 19-4ma pins.
Using more than one pin for the same output, to reinforce output power, can do our life even easier.
For example SSR G3MB requires about 10ma. With ESP I use directly connected to 5v and GND to open-gate, but to do the same with cc2530 I’m limited to two SSRs.
In any case… thanks for all.
Owner
Sorry, but I can only offer to add an external transistor. I think it is a bad practice to connect several outputs to one wire.
Xap
Using open-gate and low shouldn’t be a problem. Using high and low yes because during some clock steps can be a shortcut.
Yes, I know a ttl fet is the best way.
Thank you for your answerd.
Jim
Hello,
First , Thanks for your work !
I have a little issue with this bistable relay (https://i.stack.imgur.com/GOItR.jpg), I try to connect it to the CC2530 with a power suply 5V and I don’t know how configure the firmware to work with the relay.
I tried “Bistable Relay ON/OFF” function , “Pulse Switch” and “GPIO” on Output 1 pin P06 and connect it to the T pin of the relay but I always have the same issue that I need to switch two times the switch l1 in my home assistant to activate 1 time the relay. So each OFF command are send, the relay move but I would like that the relay move each ON and OFF commands like a basic switch.
I hope you’ve an idea how I can configure the firmware.
Thanks in advance for your answer.
Owner
You need the “Pulse switch” output in the firmware. Remember state: off. Restore state: Off. Maybe, you should try to enable the “Inversed” option. Also, check the voltage on the “T” output. It should not be more than 3.3v.
Casey (Spain)
Hello,
First of all thank you for the amazing firmware.
I am currently trying to set it up with a Conbee II stick with Deconz running on HA, using a CC2530+CC2591.
I would like to achieve 4 x (Single click , Double click and long click) so this can trigger scenes in HA.
I have used P01,P02,P03 and P04. Configured as GPIO Pull-UP and checked the Long and Double box.
Output 1 configured as GPIO Pull-down on P13, for no particular reason really.
Firmware loaded to the CC and connected to Deconz with no issues.
I can see the 4 End Points created. And the Multistate Input (Basic) of each endpoint.
I have binded to the coordinator.
But I do not see how the atribute should be added since it is a write only with a current value of 103.
Read Config fails obviousy on the attribute editor.
Could you please give me some advide on this? I must be missing something obviously.
It is not shown in Phoscon BTW.
And I do not detect any event in the deconz_event in HA.
Thank you very much.
Casey (Spain)
Hi Again,
Just seen that there is a Beta version for Phoscon that came out end of last year that mentions:
-Enable light bindings for PTVO switch relay 4/8 and DIYRUZ devices
So might be best to wait for the next stable version to see if that way i can get it in via phoscon to HA.
Any help is of course appreciated
Thanks for all the work again.

Hi, after a long search I found this great firmware.really amazing effort.
Ordered some 2530 for testing now.
I was seeking for a possibility UART an esp32 to send data (e.g. 12 x ds18b20, etc.) via cc2530 to zigbee2mqtt.
Might this be possible with your firmware?
🙂 if it would work in both directions the esp could also be used to switch etc.
The esp32 can be programmed in micropython. So it would be universal for somebody like me lacking the knowledge to write firmware.
Thank you for your time doing such a great job!
Owner
My firmware can send data to an external device through UART and send it back to a coordinator. But the firmware does not parse it. It would help if you had a custom converter on the coordinator side.
Richard
Hi, Amazing work! Is this (/could it be?) compatible with Philips Hue bridges for a single PWM output to show up as a lamp with brightness control?

Would it be possible to use this Firmware to flash it into a Gledopto LED-driver, which has a TI CC2530, and control RGB+CCT lights? so 5 channels? Gledopto’s has wierd bugs.
Owner
Sorry, but I didn’t test my firmware with this device. I don’t know how to configure firmware for it.
Raymond
I’ve hooked some wires to the device. CC-tool says Firmware is locked. When I find out which output-pin is connected to which pin of the Mosfet-driver. Do you recon it would be possible?
Owner
If a chip is locked, you should Erase it the first time.
Marco
Hi,
I want to build a battery zigbee led strip device with this E18-MS1-PCB (http://www.ebyte.com/en/product-view-news.html?id=122).
This firmware could be set up for client device only, with max energy save mode setting (deep sleep) activated?
Thanks you
Owner
Hmm, a LED strip and power saving. Are you sure? Your LED strip will consume much more energy than CC2530. In any case, the firmware does not support power saving yet.
Wojciech
Would it be easy to add InfraRed (IR) receiver, for example to receive IR signal from IR sensor conected to CC2531. I would like to use it with Hob2Hood induction cooking plate.
Owner
Sorry, but I do not plan to add IR to the firmware. You can use an external Arduino board to decode an IR signal and send data through UART.
Smartict
With support for the new E18-MS1PA2 I double checked the old PCB Usermanual for the E18-MS1PA1 series. The E18-MS1PA1 already used the pins p1.0 and p1.1 and it had the same compiler directive for the HAL_PA_LNA directive. So with earlier versions of your tool i always used the board type CC2530 + CC2592 (as this is indeed under the hood in the older E18-MS1PA1). Would you suggest now to keep using this board type or would you suggest to move to the CC2530 + RFX2401 board type with the adjusted TXEN and RXEN setting to P11/P10 for the older E18-MS1PA1 type? Your suggestion is highly appreciated.
Owner
Leave CC2530 + CC2592 for MS1PA1. It is a proven and working solution.

Hello,
does the firmware is suitable to build battery-powered sensors?
Thanks
Owner
No, yet.
David
Hello,
I just bought 2 repeaters zigbee-cc2530+cc2592
thinking it was compatible with deconZ an could be extend my network.
When I start one it is not recognized by phoscom, dconZ through the graphic interface.
But after a while I can see the node in dconZ but no connections are created with my other zigbee components.
The stock firmware is zigbee-switch-configurable-firmware-v2-210
My config:
raspberry 3b+
deconZ raspbee
sensors door/window xiaomi
Do you have maybe an idea about that issue, please?
Thank you for your time.
Best regards,
David
Owner
Hi David. I’m sorry, but I cannot answer questions about the dconZ because I didn’t try it at all.
If you can successfully pair a device with your network, new connections may appear after a while. It is not a fast process.
mamra
you can change under expert settings:
– manufacture to ‘LUMI’
– Model ID to ‘lumi.router’
and will be seen in phoscon but connections will show only with routers, no end devices

Hi! I have flashed the CC2530 with the end_device firmware and added it to Home assistant.
I only need one ouput and I don’t know the default output pins of the firmware.
State_l1 in which PIN is assigned by default to turn on or off?
Owner
Hi! You can use any pin from P01-P6, P12-P17 as output. If you do not need other channels in HA, you may adjust your device configuration (in HA) and delete unused channels.

Hi. Thank you for answering so quickly. None of the pins you refer to works for state_l1 when I send payload: “{\” state_l1 \ “: \” OFF \ “}” or payload: “{\” state_l1 \ “: \” ON \ “}” the voltage is always the same
Owner
Then you should show your full configuration. What pin did you configure as Output 1? Did you select the pull-up mode?
galdaka
I had everything working for a month.
topic: zigbee2mqtt / Air Wick / l1 / set
payload: “{\” trigger \ “: 1}”
It no longer works in Home Assistant.
PS: I don’t have the latest firmware on the CC2530
Owner
Hi. Are you sure that the 1ms interval is enough to get any feedback on your device?
Simon
Hi, great site and thanks for posting your hard work for all to share. I was looking in your downloads and noticed that you haven’t posted a version of coordinator for CC2530 without an amplifier. I’ve found that the Z-Stack 1.2 won’t run on my basic board and was looking for alternatives and ended up on your site. Have you ever compiled and tested 1.2 coordinator against a plain CC2530?
Owner
Hello. The coordinator firmware for a simple CC2530 is useless. Therefore I didn’t make it.
Yusuf
Thank you for this great project, I hope you continue.
I have a question, do you have detailed information about battery consumption? I am thinking of designing some products with CR2032 batteries and I am thinking of meeting the software needs from this project. (Of course I am planning a high donation for this in order to remain ethical)
Owner
Currently, the firmware does not support the power-saving mode. I collect donations for this feature. Consumption: 26 mA in the active mode (measurements) or 0.4uA in the sleep mode.
Jürgen
Thank you for your amazing work! It’s making things so easy!
I have problems when using BMP280 with CC2530.
It reports the values only 2-4 times, then it doesn’t respond anymore until i reset the device. I tried different ports (e.g. same like in your documentation) , watchdog, etc but always the same result.
Do you have a hint?
Owner
Hello. Did you try EndDevice or Router firmware?
Jürgen
Your absolutely right, thanks! The End-Device firmware works like a charm with my E18-MS1-PCB.
Is it a limitation or a bug?
Owner
I do not know :). Maybe, the router does not free resources for polling BME280 correctly.
Sergey
hello.
looking like similar problem with ACS712
doesn’t respond after same minutes in router mode and work correctly in end-device mode…
any chance to resolve that?
Owner
I’m working on this problem.
Maui
Hey guys,
when I change from routing to Endpoint, is this some kind of Power Saving?
Has anyone of you tested this?
Owner
Hi. No. The firmware does not support power saving yet.
Verydarksheep
Hi! How much coffee would it take to support power saving? 🙂
Owner
Hi! Maybe, 10 liters of coffee :).
Bennic
Great configurator! Thank you for your work.
Bought you 3 coffee 🙂
Owner
Thank you 🙂

I have connected 4 DS18B20 to port P15 on CC2530 (external pull-up) like you described with no ID per sensor. The 4 sensors are reporting values, but all on l1 in a random order.
Here is an example of one report via MQTT:
{“device_l1″:”28-CB-FE-E3-08-00-00-99″,”device_l2″:”AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF-01-02″,”device_l3″:”AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF-01-03″,”device_l4″:”AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF-01-04″,”l1″:18.875,”l2″:0,”l3″:0,”l4″:0,”l5″:26,”linkquality”:110,”temperature_l1″:18.9,”temperature_l2″:0,”temperature_l3″:0,”temperature_l4″:0,”temperature_l5″:26}
How can I get these 4 sensors to report separately on l1, l2, l3, l4 ?
Owner
You need to add D18B20 on other outputs with the same pin number and specify the device ID.
Doublet
Thnx, done it and this is how: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/diy-zigbee-4x-ds18b20-temperature-measurement/246584
Owner
Thank you! I’ve added a link to your tutorial.
Dmitry
Thank you very match for your amazing job. Hope you’ll continue and we’ll see control of addressable led one day.

Hello!
Would it be possible to use Z-Stack 3.0.x? According to this: https://github.com/Koenkk/Z-Stack-firmware/tree/master/coordinator it would support more direct children.
I already use quite a few DIY routers with your firmware and it works flawlessly. (Thanks!) One thing that I noticed is that every router has only 5 routes at maximum. I have a pretty large network and possibility to increase routes number per router is really tempting. I feel that I may lack some “bandwidth” as all my DIY routers are already at their limits.
Cheers!
Owner
Sorry, but I do not plan to use Z-Stack 3 for CC2530 and CC2531. I think ‘direct children’ are applicable for a coordinator only.
Dave
Ok, that’s fine. Thanks for such a quick reply! 🙂
I’m not sure if ‘direct children’ are applicable to coordinator only. I just can’t tell because I use ConBee with deCONZ and see only 5 routes from DIY routers, routes for sensors are simply not shown in deCONZ.
I will trust your knowledge cause I don’t have anything to back up my feeling 😉
PS I’m looking forward to PSM! And thanks for recent update with “firmware for end devices (without routing)” – that will be much useful in some places.
Dave
PS I just wanted to donate, however I can’t do so via Yandex.
It’s in Russian and I cannot change the language, and for some reason it does not accept my credit card. Please consider providing buymeacoffee.com or PayPal donation options. I will certainly back up your hard work 🙂
Owner
The page detects geolocation and shows the appropriate variant :-). Thank you for the info about buymeacoffee.com. I’ve added that button too.
Dave
That’s great, thanks!
