Zigbee2MQTT with an Inswift coordinator

Zigbee2MQTT usually exposes device features in more detail than ZHA. Inswift ships both TI and Silabs radios; the difference is the adapter type.

TI (CC2652P / P7)

serial:
  port: /dev/ttyUSB0
  adapter: zstack

Silabs (MG21 / MG24)

Use ezsp or the newer ember adapter depending on your Z2M version. 115200 baud is common. Follow the firmware release notes.

ETH gateway

In network mode set port to tcp://GATEWAY_IP:PORT. A steady green LED usually means Z2M is connected.

Common issues

  • ZHA and Z2M cannot share the same coordinator
  • Permission errors: add the HA user to dialout, or map the device into the container
