Hi,

Here is a quick howto:

  • [already done] Flash your bridge with tasmota zbbridge firmware following Sonoff Zigbee Bridge (ZBBridge) Zigbee compatibility (ignore the ZHA part)

  • Install and configure a MQTT server somewhere on your network, reachable by your bridge and openHAB. Mosquitto is a good choice, and is included on openHABian.

  • Declare your MQTT server in tasmota. In the tasmota console, you should see MQTT messages sent.

  • Configure Tasmota MQTT formatting for zigbee (in tasmota console) :

    • SetOption89 1
    • SetOption83 1
    • SetOption112 1

  • Check the information is correctly published on MQTT server. MQTT Explorer for Windows is very useful.

  • Declare your MQTT server in OpenHAB (see my setup below)

  • In OpenHAB, declare your MQTT bridge, things and channels.

  • In OpenHAB, declare your items

  • Done !
