Setting Zigate (USB, Wifi, Pi) as a Router #173

Closed pipiche38 closed 5 years ago

pipiche38 commented 5 years ago

When setting the Device Type ( command 0x0023 ), we can use

0 = Coordinator 1 = Router 2 = Legacy Router

Could you kindly confirm that the 3 modes are possible for the Zigate ? Could also let us know what is the difference between Legacy Router and Router ?

So if I want to set a Zigate simply as a Router, I would only have to set Device Type to 1 or 2, correct ?

pipiche38 commented 5 years ago

In the case Zigate support the Router mode, it would then need a command to trigger a Device Annouced to be broadcasted to any Controler around.

ISO-B commented 5 years ago
Value Device type
0 Coordinator
1 Router
2 >= These values are converted to 1(Router). It should be end device, but it is disabled, because ZiGate would be very bad end device.
ISO-B commented 5 years ago

@fairecasoimeme can you update those values to documentation.

Hello, How can we proceed to setup the device as a router. I tried with firmware ZiGate_v30f.bin

1) on the NXP GUI, I do erase PD 2) I click on Set Type "Router" 3) ??? when I click the start scan, I have this error : 19:52:27.641 -> 01 02 10 25 02 10 02 10 25 03 19:52:27.727 <- 01 80 00 00 05 A2 02 00 00 25 00 03

Type: 0x8000 (Status) Length: 5 Status: 0x02 (Unhandled Command) SQN: 0x00 Message:

My feeling is the firware is coordinator only, to allow router mode maybe we need the "ZigbeeNodeControlBridge_JN5168_FULL_FUNC_DEVICE"

What do you think ? Do you succeed to connect a zigate in router mode to an other zigate in coordinator mode ?

Thank you.

I suspect that is not supported by ZGUi but if you use the API that should work. That is something I have in mind.

Thank you for your answer. Do you ever managed to use a zigate as a router ?

pipiche38 commented 5 years ago

@dondipietro , not yet, that is on my To-Do list. But that might be the case pretty soon (I have some spare time now as I completed the implementation of an additional feature to the Domoticz Plugin) . I'll keep you posted

pipiche38 commented 5 years ago

I just did test with ZGUI and at least the commands seems to be accepted by ZGUI and Zigate Capture

ruimarinho commented 3 years ago

@pipiche38 is this something you could do without ZGUI?

pipiche38 commented 3 years ago

@ruimarinho I suggest that you use this firmware if you want to use a ZiGate as a router ;-) https://github.com/badzz/Zigate-Router

ruimarinho commented 3 years ago

@pipiche38 I tried both binaries available but none seem targeted to JN5168. This is what I get:

❯ JennicModuleProgrammer -V 6 -P 115200 -e -f Router_NtagIcode_JN5169_DR1175.bin -s /dev/cu.usbserial-0001

I'm migrating to Z-Stack but would like to keep my ZiGate v1 around as a Router. Now that v2 is out, hopefully it won't become obsolete (cc @fairecasoimeme).

Maybe @badzz can help here too?
