ZigBee Shutter Control not working - missing RaspBee Shutter Device

---

Hey All,
I just got a Tuya/Jinvoo ZigBee curtain switch (SM-SW101-ZC) to test if I can use it for my shutters.
I was able to get it binded via Phoscon to the ConBee II stick as a lamp (discovered as ‘Window covering device’ from Heiman, model: TS0302) and afterwards also discovered by Pimatic as device.
My problem is now, that in the device list of the Raspbee devices, there is no shutter.
I took the dimmer-device and was able to read the ‘status’:
Looks like pressing on the device’s button Up = 100%, Stop button = 50% and Down button = 0% = Off. So getting values from the devices seems working.
But it doesn’t work the other way round. Pressing buttons in Pimatic, resp. moving the slider of the dimmer device only feedbacks error messages (=‘bad request’).
Has someone an idea how this can be tackled, e. g. integration of a shutter in the RaspBee plugin?
Thanks in advance for a response

The best solution is that @kosta adds this device type to the raspbee plugin.

Yes @bertreb, I meanwhile found a respective thread (with @kosta) on GitHub and also found the RaspBee thread where new devices are requested.
I will try to post the device parameters from the deCONZ gui later on GitHub…

Device request opened: https://github.com/dresden-elektronik/deconz-rest-plugin/issues/2999

I meanwhile verified, that the shutter-switch is propperly working directly from the deCONZ GUI.
So it seems at leat really ‘only’ to be an Pimatic raspbee integration-gap

Hi all, I now got the confirmation, that the shutter switch has officially been integrated in the Deconz Vers 2.05.79:

https://github.com/dresden-elektronik/deconz-rest-plugin/issues/2999

So I guess, that now an update of the raspbee plugin is needed in addition, right?

Could someone take care for this?

Is there any news to this?
I also got this Shutter controller, it only works as a switch at the moment.

Hi @theslashy, I didn’t hear anything. So same status currently for me.
I fear that most users use the Shellys to steer the shutters and thus a ZigBee device might be to exotic!? 😉

Hi @kosta, I while ago here
I just was able now to do all updates Phoscon -> 2.05.82, ConBee II firmeware -> 26650700 and last but not least also the raspbee plugin -> 0.1.7
Everything runs fine, but I’m still not able to use the above mentioned shutter steering device.
Besides the PhosconApp shows it as a light, allthough using the discovery routine for a switch, in the deconz gui it is shown correctly and also can be steerd via the gui correctly, in minimum up/down/stop.
As it works fine that way, shouldn’t it be possible to integrate it, or maybe in general a shutter device, in the list of the raspbee devices in Pimatic?
I’m not that deep in these details, but I’m wondering that everything else is availabel there (sensors, dimmers, lights, switches, etc.) but no shutter device.

So, I also upgraded my deconz conbee2 and am using this.
I would love to support if i can help somehow to support this device?!

@kosta
if it helps I would be able to send you one of the shutter controllers, I bought one more

@Pedder, I made a some adjustments to pimatic-raspbee to support a shutter. Its a fork of the pimatic-raspbee.
I can’t test it, so if you are able to install and test it, i can help to get it working.
This version uses a RaspbeeDimmer as shutter controller. But as i said i didn’t test it

I assume in time @kosta will add the Shutter functionality to his plugin.

Hi @bertreb, thanks for taking care
I just checked Github, found your fork, but couldn’t find an additional new raspbee ‘version’ there.
If you added something there, could you provide a direct link to a file or something like such?

Besides that, with regard of testing an inoffical raspbee version, I would not do that on my productive system.
Meanwhile the trouble of a respective crash would become to large here in my local user ‘community’

Thus I will order now a secound ConBee2 stick, which I anyhow planed to have it as spare at home.
As soon as I have it available here, we can start to test. A test Raspi/Pimatic is anyhow already availabe.

Pedder

I have a little conversation in the deconz github repository. It seems for it to work they will have to do a extra implementation based on the manufacturer name that has to be read with the deconz gui.
I will try to help there, but my system is headless at the moment, I will try to go on there in the next days, so maybe there will be some progress, too.

In Deconz (GUI) the device (SM-SW101-ZC) is already working. I was able to test that and see that up/stop/down in minimum works in both directions, so steering from deconz and also by the device’s buttons.
I provided all the necessary screenshoots myself on Github to get that done, a couple of months ago.

Now still the integration in Pimatic/raspbee is missing.

Ok thats funny, I have the same switch (at least by the model number) and it doesnt work on the newest deconz + firmware.

You are right i didn’t push it yet to github, but its now there.

@bertreb, found it now, thanks!
As I never did it that way before: Would I only have to exchange my current ‘device-config-schema.coffee’ (in the node-modules/pimatic-raspbee directory) by your new file? … and then for sure restart Pimatic.

@theslashy, thats wondering. Here it worked definetly after learing it by the Phoscon App as a light - as written in my last post on Github, end of September.

@Both, as written, I will order another stick and then start testing. It’s listet at am…on as 1-Day-Delivery …

Using a second Conbee stick for testing is a good idea.
The pimatic-raspbee plugin is using the official deconz api and as far as i can see you can not ruin the Deconz/Conbee setup. Its just using the in Deconz configured devices.

But there are still some things to solve like:

• supported functions: open, close, tilt, etc
• pimatic gui

The first version i made is detecting a deconz “Window covering device” or “Window covering controller” and uses the dimmer for shutter position and open/close for that function.

Oh, just FYI: They currently sell the Osram Smart+ Plugs in a package of 4 for ~40€, which is a super price
