Aqara temperature sensor - no value updates

Add-ons Bindings
1

Hi all,

I have plugged the “Qivicon ZigBee Device” into my RPi and the OH zigbee binding finds ist immediately.
I add it as a thing via Papaer UI.

Then I seach for my “Aqara temperature sensor” via the zigbee binding and it gets recognised.
I also add it as a thing via Paper UI and immediately the channels are being offered.

I link the three channels for temperature, humidity and pressure to three items via Paper UI.

I restart the server and the three items start to show the values.

So far so good.

However after a while the sensor does no longer send updated values.
It simply stops.
Neither in events.log nor in openhab.log there is any message about something changing to OFFLINE or an error message whatsoever.

A restart of the server leaves the items in state=NULL.

Any idea what is wrong?

I already tried to change the join to INSECURE, but to no avail.

Cheers
Wolfgang

I got some Lumi/Aqara sensors just to test them.
My temperature sensor registers as “lumi.weather”.
After a week it is still working.
What I notice is Habmin -> Configuration -> Thing -> Attributes:
zigbee_datecode 20191205

My other Lumi sensors, a leak sensor and a magnet sensor have zigbee_datecode reported as 20170721 and 20161128.
And they are now marked as red in Habmin.
This may be a coincidence, but I do not think so.

oh, well, I take what I wrote about the leak and magnet sensor back.
Activating (pushing button the leak and fiddling magnet on the magnet) them mark them Green again.

Hi Nils,

I have the same datecode.
What is your zigbee controller?

I have a Bitronvideo stick.
I just got started with the zigbee-binding a week ago, so I am still very green :slight_smile:

Purchased one of these, too.
Working like a charm.
Apparently my Qivicon was not compatible.

Also trying the CC2531 zigbee2mqtt.
Also working fine.
Will compare both options when the next Aqara arrives.
