Some questions about zigbee firmware #16

Closed PetrMa closed 10 months ago

Hi,

at first, thank you for your hardwork.

as I would like to test the new Zigbee firmware, I need to ask you for some details: 1) is it better to use your firmware or firmware from devbis? which one you recommend? 2) do you plan to make firmware and OTA for Z2M? If not and I´am using Z2M, it is devbis version better for me at this time? 3) is there any way how to update your firmware via Z2M manually? 4) is there any way how to migrate from your Z2M to devbis or back?

Sorry for these questions but I think I´am not only one user who is confused of these two different versions and I hope this can help other users to make decision. Thanks, regards, Petr

  1. Of your choice. Firmwares have many differences. But the common interface is retained for compatibility.
  2. I don't use z2m. I don’t know how and what works in z2m. And I do not publish beta firmware versions in general lists for automatic updates (OTA) of Zigbee devices for all users. When everything is debugged and checked, then publication is possible (To publish firmware to general lists, you need to change the manufacturer code. There is no code for DIY in Zigbee, only for corporations. Now the Telink manufacturer's code has been captured. Next it will need to be replaced.)
  3. Yes, it is possible to update the firmware in z2m manually.
  4. Yes. This has so far been implemented only with the help of my utilities and firmware via BLE. Only OTA update was used. No hard-programmers.
