[OH2] Ikea Tradfri LED1649C5 e14 dimming bulb via zigbee2mqtt

Foreword

This tutorial was written for openHAB2. If you are using openHAB3 you may wish to make use the UI using this tutorial.

We have an Ikea Tradfri e14 400lm dimmable bulb.

Here is how I integrated into openHAB, via zigbee2mqtt and Mosquitto .

Prerequisites

  • Ensure the openHAB MQTT binding is installed (V2, not V1)
  • My Mosquitto MQTT broker is setup as per default.
  • Pair the device with zigbee2mqtt as described here .
    • Ensure that you are able to pair devices by setting permit_join to true in configuration.yaml (usually in /opt/zigbee2mqtt/data)
  • Once paired, adjust the zigbee2mqtt configuration.yaml (usually in /opt/zigbee2mqtt/data) to:

Here is my configuration.yaml - your device ID is likely to be different. I have given my device the friendly name swPorchLight :

homeassistant: false
permit_join: true
mqtt:
  base_topic: zigbee2mqtt
  server: 'mqtt://localhost'
serial:
  port: /dev/ttyACM0
  disable_led: false
advanced:
  log_level: error
  availability_timeout: 5
devices:
  '0x086bd7fffe210efc':
    friendly_name: swPorchLight
experimental:
  output: attribute

I have a separate file which just contains the bridge Thing to my Mosquitto MQTT broker:

Bridge mqtt:broker:MosquittoMqttBroker "Mosquitto MQTT Broker" [
	host="192.168.1.92",
	secure=false,
	port=1883,
	clientID="OpenHAB2"
]
