Adding Zigbee router #143

Closed ALaDoffe closed 2 months ago

Hi

Thx for your great job. Is there a way to pair additional zigbee router to the coordinator in order to extend range between esp-ecu and the APS ? My APS is quite far from the esp-ecu.

Regards

In theory every node in the network should work as a repeater (if i understand it well). Sadly our system only paires with the APS devices. I know APS sell a zigbee booster you could connect to the antenna adapter of your zigbee device but if this will work?

I assume that you use the zigbee module with the CC2591 amplifier. I would say place your ESP-ECU closer to the inverters and use a wifi repeater if necessary. I am sorry, i have no other helpfull suggestions.

OK OK thx for your response. As a workaround, I changed my CC2530 antenna. The signal is now quite good (around 25%)
