While browsing my zigbee logs and attempting to troubleshoot/reset network, I came across this inovelli switch log entry. This switch hardly gets any use, yet it is consistently sending the highest amount of messages in my logs.
Could this be partly to blame for my recent zigbee instabilities? How do I go about fixing this? I have another one of these switches in the closet for the same room and the message logs are nowhere near it.
Have you tried power cycling (air gap) it and seeing if it behaves afterwards?
Is it possible the noisy one is one of the bad initial batches? What firmware # do you have on them?
I have airgapped it, does not seem to make a difference.
Fw is 2.08
Since that switch is rarely used, can you just leave it airgapped and see if your stability issues improve?
If so, I'd say it's a candidate for replacement.
Do you have it reporting power usage? If so, try disabling this to see if it makes a difference.
As @Sebastien said, said disabling or lowering the power reports and the % change which generates a report. I think the latest firmware is 2.16 but that was causing issues. I am safely using 2.14 firmware and with a 15% power change for reports and a large interval(32000 secs) between reports.
Also please do valid your switch's MAC address is not one of the faulty ones
2.08 is as of this moment the latest official firmware... Inovelli pulled 2.14 for some issues (although I have it on all 9 of my Blues and I'm not noticing any problems), and 2.15 (or 2.16 or whatever they'll call it) should be dropping anytime now.
But if you initiate a f/w update w/in Hubitat right now, I'm not sure what it'll grab -- if they have a beta loaded up, it may grab that.
I'm not willing to try that until they do the formal new-firmware release (hopefully soon).
But yeah, as Rxich said, verify that one isn't one of the bad IEEE batches from back in the initial release - those things were devastating to a zigbee mesh.
At the risk of sounding dumb — I am going to ask… where do I find the MAC address/IEE? Is that the same thing as the “16 but address” ?
@RxRated please see this post for details:
Looks like a few of us are having similar issues with different devices...
I have 9 3A zigbee wall outlets that are sending 4-5 times the amount of messages the other devices are... I mentioned it in another thread similar to this one...
Its' the "Zigbee ID" under device details
