I’d say it’s Zigbee, but now you’ve made me question that. If it weren’t Zigbee, is there any way to integrate the Netatmo solution into LM?

I’ll find out which devices they are and post them here.

I need help with the following.
I'm trying to add and control the Aqara Roller Shade Driver E1 device.
https://www.aqara.com/eu/product/roller-shade-driver-e1

I can assign group addresses, but the device doesn't respond when I change its status.
When the device’s physical button is pressed, it returns values in the monitor section.

Device found:
Manufacturer: LUMI
Model: lumi.curtain.acn002

Device type: End device
Power source: Battery
Receive when idle: No

Is there a user-defined/manual way to add a Zigbee device (including its functions and group assignments) to the devices list even if it isn't in the list of supported devices?

For example (the device was found but I can't use its functions):

Manufacturer: LUMI
Model: lumi.motion.ac02
Firmware version: 0.0.0_0010

Device type: End device
Power source: Battery
Receive when idle: No

Endpoint 1
Profile: 260
Input clusters
- Basic (0)
- PowerCfg (1)
- Identify (3)
- ManuSpecificAqaraOpple (64704)
Output clusters
- Identify (3)
- Ota (25)
- ManuSpecificAqaraOpple (64704)

There's no option to make custom device profiles at the moment.

Many Xiaomi/Aqara devices do not follow the ZigBee standard correctly:
- Roller Shade Driver does not work without a profile because it incorrectly reports "Receive when idle: No".
- Motion Detector does not list a SsIasZone cluster which is required for such devices.

We'll add your devices in the next update but there's no guarantee that they will work with LM.

Thank you for your reply.
When will it be possible to create custom profiles? I don’t know how complicated it is, but this way, every LM user could connect any Zigbee device.

Could you please tell me which manufacturers strictly adhere to the Zigbee standard? I know there’s a list of supported devices, but I’m not sure if it’s up to date.

There are many Zigbee devices, and before I buy another one, I’d like to know for sure that it will work with LM.

Just for your information (I don’t want to compare HA and LM): I first tested all the Zigbee devices I wanted to connect to LM in Home Assistant, and they all worked there.

We've decided against allowing user-defined profiles. Most simple devices should work without a profile if the manufacturer adheres to the standard. Anything more complex usually requires modifying the app code to support non-standard features.

As for recommended devices - the only advice is to avoid Xiaomi/Aqara and TuYa devices. In worst case certain devices simply use ZigBee as data transport for their own custom protocol.

As for open-source alternatives - of course they have a wider supported device range. It's simply not viable for us to spend a lot of development time adding support for quirky ZigBee devices.
