Zigbee, Binding not creating correct channels "Switch On/Off"

Add-ons Bindings
1

I have 35 Zigbee devices on my network which include Phillips HUE, Sonoff and 3A Smart Home DE

I am attempting to add a new device from 3A Smart Home which is a 4-gang Light switch (relays not dimmers), unfortunately the Zigbee binding only creates 4 Dimmer channels.
It looks like the binding recreates the channels on each boot (so manually editing .json is out of the question)

I have been playing with openhab-cli console and the zigbee commands (there are some logs below), but I have the following question:

  1. Should the binding also add channels for a switch as there is an On_Off Cluster in the Profile
         1    : Profile     ZIGBEE_LIGHT_LINK
                 : Device Type ZLL_ON_OFF_LIGHT
                   -> BASIC
                   -> IDENTIFY
                   -> GROUPS
                   -> SCENES
                   -> ON_OFF
                   -> LEVEL_CONTROL
                   -> 0x1000
                   <- BASIC
                   <- ON_OFF

**EDIT: I just noticed that the item is actually updating with either 0 or 100
Operating the Item using the Dimmer Slider, turns it on at “1” or greater.
It only turns OFF when the slider hits “0” **

I have edited the Item and made it a Switch and now it is working as expected.
(I swear I had tried that before and it was not working)…

Because that’s not how OH works. A dimmer inherits the properties of an OnOf switch so you don’t need both. If the device supports a dimmer, then the binding provides a dimmer channel. This all looks correct, so \i’m not completely sure what the issue is at the moment?

No, but you shouldn’t need to.

I can’t see in the logs how you’re trying to control the device. Are you using a switch item or a dimmer item?

Thank you Chris,

The solution was to simply edit the Item and set it to type Switch, but I swear I had tried that before.

Thank you for your time, I have edited my question as it was not very well structured.

I learned alot about Zigbee while troubleshooting this. One thing I was never able to do was to manually “write” to a Profile/Cluster , do you know the correct syntax?

openhab> zigbee read 55137/1 0x0008 0x0

openhab> zigbee write 55137/1 0x0006 0x0 1
Attribute value write error: READ_ONLY

openhab> zigbee write 55137/1 0x0008 0x0 1
Attribute value write error: READ_ONLY

The syntax you’re using is correct. The problem is that you are trying to change a read-only attribute so you get an error.

Ahh, yes, looking at the setup of the Cluster, I see 16,17,18,19,20 are rw-

        S   16384 rw- UNSIGNED_8_BIT_INTEGER    Start Up Current Level

None of my attempts to read or write seem successfull.
Is this impossible to do from the command line or is just that I cannot get the syntax correct?

But the commands are successful -:

This is a successful transaction, but the atribute you are trying to write to is a read only attribute. Therefore the device has responded to say that you cannot write to it.

Here again the device has responded to say that it doesn’t support this attribute - it’s the device that has reported this - the command was fine.

The CLI supports this just fine - no problem.

You have the right syntax.

If you want to find out what attributes are supported, you can try the attsupported command - although it will obviously depend on weather or not the device supports that command.

I understand. I tried the attsupported but …

openhab> zigbee attsupported  55137/1 0x0008
Failed to retrieve supported attributes

I will let this go now, a big thank you for your time and assistance

cheers, Ian
