Help need to get zigbee4java and cc2531 working in widows 10

[Julli Mullins]

Hello!

I have tried to get zigbee4java to talk with the cc2531 but so far I have had zero success. I have done the following:

1. copied the sources from git

2. removed the android part from gradle.properties. Also changed the serial port reference to COM5

3. Imported the gradle project to eclipse

4. Flashed and verified the firmware on cc2351 module (I have tried both CC2531ZNP-Pro-Secure_Standard.hex and CC2531ZNP-Pro.hex, I didn't compile new firmware for the cc2531)

5. Connected the cc2351 to usb port (green light turns on) and ran graddle task zigbee-console-javase -> run.

Result is this

green light on cc2531 turns off and in the console following messages are printed:

I also tried to start console with different parameter

zigbee4javaConsoleArgs = COM5 23 12 false and zigbee4javaConsoleArgs = COM5 23 12 true

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong or try next?

Ps. the cc2351 is a Chinese version but at least the packet sniffer works fine with the proper firmware

[Julli Mullins]

In windows device manager the CC2351 is show as TI CC2531 LowePower RF to CDC Serial Port (COM5). So that part should be ok too.

I have a raspberry board too but I'm not sure how to test the cc2531 dongle there.

Hi

Sounds like you have selected the correct firmware file and successfully flashed it. If the packet sniffer works then the hardware should be ok. That leaves the following suspects:

1) Problem with latest zigbee4java from master branch. You can test latest release to rule that out: https://github.com/tlaukkan/zigbee4java/releases/tag/zigbee4java-2.0.2

2) Problem with Windows 10. Can anyone confirm that they are successfully using zigbee4java on Windows 10? I have been using it up to Windows 8 at the moment. If you have possibility to test with Windows 8 yourself or try with mac / linux that would help ruling this one out.

3) Finally there could be breaking changes between Z-Stack versions. What is your Z-Stack version. Mine is Z-Stack Home 1.2.2.42930.

Best regards,

Tommi

[Julli Mullins]

Thanks for your input.

I think that there is something wrong in the com between cc2531 and windows. If I keep the cc2531 connected to the laptop for while, the greed led on cc2531 turns off. Should the cc2531 behave like that?

1. No help (see log at the end of the message)

2. -

3. z-stack is Z-Stack Home 1.2.2a.44539, so it's a bit newer, so could it be that there is some changes in cc2531 firmware? Can you send me a working firmware for cc2531 (borh with and without encryption on)

It seems that first the dongel is working but really soon the com between dongle and the console is lost. Is the dongle broken? Bad firmware installed to the dongle?

Hi

I have tested on Windows 10 and zigbee4java seems to be working ok.

Br,

Hi

Some further testing revealed serial port instability with Windows 10. I have implemented alternative ZigbeeSerialPort with jSSC and switched ZigbeeConsole to use that which stabilized things. Dongle seems to be very stable now over random restarts of the application etc.

-Tommi

[timo.p.j...@gmail.com]

Interesting, I will test my dongles (2x cban cc2531 and 1xwebee cc2531)to check if this will fix my challenges. It looks also that jSSC is compatible with raspberry, so I will try to test zigbee4java on rpi too.

Tommi, my offer for free presence, temperature sensors and power switch is still valid. Drop me an email if you are interested.

Hi Timo

These will be very useful things to test, please report how the outcomes are. :)

Hello!

 

Finally found the time to test my dongles in w10 with the new z4j setup and all my dongles initializes without any errors. I can confirm that cban cc2531 and webee cc2531 dongles work with zigbee4java in w10

Next task is to make my adhoco devices work with zigbee4java. Just tested Adhoco S1 device and it joined the zigbee mesh first but after while the node was removed because no enpoints were found...

Tommi do you know that does the console.log contain all messages transmitted from and to the coordinator?

I also test an Adhoco C1 temperature sensor but results were the same plus following error.
