Trying to connect the _ZigBee Dongle_ __Texas Instruments CC2531__ to the smart plug __FlexGrid FlexPlug__ there were problems.
|
|
|
|
All the tests were done with the zigbee-gateway-server console, version 3.1.0.
|
|
|
|
With permit join set to enable the smart plug join the network and is added to the device list.
|
|
|
|
The plug generates repeatedly a message of the IdentifyCluster containing an IdentifyQueryCommand and send it broadcast.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I found that the library does not explicitly manage broadcast messages, so the message is received to all endpoints (by default the program creates 3 endpoints for the dongle, with different clusters on each), but, because only endpoint 1 has the Identify Cluster, when the message reaches the other endpoints an exception is thrown. The exception let the console usable but the long message that prints on the screen is annoying, so see issue #4. This is also an efficiency issue.

Also noticed that changing the permit join parameter generates an unknown package, then a warning. Analyzing the packages I think that the unknown one is only some form of notification that the status changed, in fact the unknown frame is not generated if the join command is used without changing the status (e.g. join enable when permit join is already enabled). I don't have the certainty because the command ID of the package is not on the "Z-Stack Monitor and Test API" document.

Trying to send any command through the dongle goes on time-out.
|
|
|
|
The messages I tried to send are:
|
|
|
|
* write and read message
|
|
|
|
* on and off messages
|
|
|
|
* IdentifyCommand
|
|
|
|
* IdentifyQueryResponse |
