Notes #
Deprecated click event #
By default this device exposes a deprecated click
event. It’s recommended to use the action
event instead.
To disable the click
event, set legacy: false
for this device in configuration.yaml
. Example:
devices:
'0x12345678':
friendly_name: my_device
legacy: false
Pairing #
Press and hold the reset button on the device for +- 5 seconds (until the blue light starts blinking). After this the device will automatically join. If this doesn’t work, try with a single short button press.
Troubleshooting: device stops sending messages/disconnects from network #
Since Xiaomi devices do not fully comply to the Zigbee standard, it sometimes happens that they disconnect from the network. Most of the times this happens because of the following reasons:
- Device has a weak signal, you can see the signal quality in the published messages as
linkquality
. A linkquality < 20 is considered weak. - Low battery voltage, this can even happen when the battery still appears full. Try a different battery.
- The device is connected through a router which cannot deal with Xiaomi devices. This is known to happen devices from: Centralite, General Electric, Iris, Ledvance, OSRAM, Sylvania, SmartThings, Securifi.
