Sauver des données embarquées à dos d'outarde

Ou comment l'association @GEBULL, petit GUL de province, a contribué à une étude scientifique.

À la fin du mois de novembre 2021, une balise de suivi d’oiseau nous a été confiée par le Groupe Ornithologique des Deux-Sèvres. Muette depuis 4 ans sur le dos d’une outarde canepetière, perdue pour la science mais recapturée dernièrement, nous avions pour consigne d’en extraire coûte que coûte les dernières données relevées.

My #HomeLab has grown way beyond the clean and simple setup from 1.5 years ago. Time to optimize — but let’s be real, a HomeLab is never done.

Made some important and much belated progress getting my new (replacement) Home Assistant installation up and running this afternoon.

The Pi 5 with boot from NVMe has been set up for a while. Today I have:

- Installed Mosquitto on the host.
- Configured separate client credentials for Zigbee2MQTT and Home Assistant.
- Installed Zigbee2MQTT under Docker and got it talking to Mosquitto.
- Installed Home Assistant under Docker and got it talking to Mosquitto.

Then to verify everything I added four Tradfri Zigbee network routers to the system and they showed up straight away on Home Assistant

This is the breakthrough I needed to make, to be able to decommission the old service.

Mit einem #Update der #Firmware auf #FritzOS 8.02 bringt #AVM neue Funktionen für #Matter und #Zigbee auf das #FritzSmartGateway. Obendrein werden einige lästige Fehler behoben. https://winfuture.de/news,150120.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia

Умный дом. Как соединить разные технологии? Реальный опыт

Умным домом в наше время уже никого не удивишь, а если говорить об элементах умного дома, то они распространены практически повсеместно, а новые экосистемы появляются с завидной регулярностью. И тут встает вопрос, а как быть обычному рядовому пользователю? Покупать оборудование и быть привязанным к конкретной экосистеме? А если случилось так, что используются элементы нескольких разных производителей/экосистем? Куча приложений в смартфоне для управления всем этим хозяйством выглядит удручающее. Перспектива, при отключении интернета, остаться без управления или вообще неожиданно получить в своем хозяйстве неработающее устройство, которое по каким-то причинам перестали поддерживать в новой версии экосистемы, удручает еще больше. А это я еще не касаюсь вопросов безопасности.

Anyone know of a battery-powered (standalone) #zigbee light switch that works with #hiloenergie from #hydeoquebec ? Have tried the cute Sonoff SNZB-01P and Philips Hue Dimmer V1, no dice :( glad to sell/donate them in #montreal

Learning more than I'd hoped was necessary about the #HomeAssistant #zigbee device handling.

There are python add-ons called "Quirks" that let devices add sensor entities after the fact for ZHA and Z2m.

I've got a 2-channel power sensor I'm trying to add and it seems to be on the bleeding edge of supported devices.

I see dev work going on, so might be the easiest path forward is to wait a few weeks.

But hey, I learned about Quirks today, so that's a new corner of HA for me.

Signify/Hue: "Yes, we sell expensive gradient light strips and extensions. People love our stuff. It just works."

"Do they love us too much though? That's a bit unfair to other manufacturers, no?"

"You're right. What do you propose?"

"Let's make the extension connectors really flimsy and short, and the strips curl."

"Brilliant."

Proof of concept. I hacked-up the AC power cable for a simple desk fan, added crimp connectors to the wires, and plugged it into this cheap Zigbee switch. I dislike the crimping job (the gray crimps make me nervous, and the red ones are a bit too long for the switch), but functionally this circuit works and the fan can be switched on/off.

My plan is to modify various lamps around the apartment, turning them into smart lamps. I bought several cheap Zigbee switches like this one for a few dollars each (China). I chose Zigbee instead of WiFi to ensure they couldn't "phone home", and to unify my IOT stuff under one app (Home Assistant). The goal is to replace my TP-Link Kasa WiFi smart switches with Zigbee alternatives managed by Home Assistant running on a Pi4.

I'm automating stuff at the family farm using #homeassistant ; lights, smoke alarms, stove fire preventers, heaters.

It's inspiring to see so many iot devices support #ZigBee but also infuriating that 50% of the ones I've encountered has something fucky with their zigbee implementation. It's also somewhat concerning that the mains-connected zb router devices I've found will drop off immediately when the power goes out. The thought of not getting alerts about a fire in the barn if the power's out, concerns me.

I've got my eye on #matter , but I can't find compatible smoke alarms in Norway (so I can be confident they comply with local regulations, and return them if they're bad), and only limited reviews of ones available from abroad.

I see there's https://www.matteralpha.com/category/smoke-co-alarm and https://community.home-assistant.io/t/smoke-detector-with-matter-over-thread-support/810731 but idk.

Can anyone recommend a mains-powered zigbee router device with a built-in battery, that'll keep it routing for at least 1 hour if it loses power?

Alternatively, a small (max 20*10*10cm) #ups that'll power a zb router or other tiny device for 1 hour? #NUT #networkUpsTools compatibility is a big plus

Bought some cheap-ass temp/humidity Bluetooth sensors from Xiaomi, was very happy to discover that the hardware also supports Zigbee, proceeded to immediately flash the wrong firmware file and bricked the whole thing

Time to break out the JTAG

Oha, die #ShellyGen4 mit #Zigbee sind jetzt verfügbar. https://www.shelly.com/de/collections/all-products/gen4

Fehlt nur noch der #2PMGen4

I'm looking at setting up #alarmo to replace an ADT system. The software side looks easy, but I'd like a hardware recommendation for a keypad. I'd prefer #zigbee but I have a #zwave mesh too.

Right now I'm thinking of a Ring v2 for the keypad and Aquara contact sensors for the doors and windows.

#homeassistant @homeassistant

Gibt es #homeassistant kompatible (bsp. #Zigbee ) #SmartPlugs mit Schweizer #T13 Anschluss, die auch den aktuellen Stromverbrauch ausgeben? Weiss da jemand was?

Sniffing Zigbee traffic sounds complicated? In my latest guide, I show how to capture and analyze Zigbee communication using Wireshark, ember-zli, and an EFR32-based sniffer.

Learn how to decrypt packets, explore ZCL commands, and troubleshoot issues in your ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT network with confidence.

Ideal for Home Assistant power users & tinkerers!

I have a #zigbee power plug that turns off for no reason. It was a batch of 2, both with that problem, but I lost track of one.

Anyway, that is not what you want from a power plug. But I think I found a way to not let it go to waste.
I needed to battery manage my wall mounted tablet, and since it'd be turning on and off semi-regularly, the odd turning off is not a big deal.

Even a half broken device can do useful work!
