Hue lamps stop working because channels cannot be initialized
yuergen opened this issue · 4 comments
Outline
I have six Hue lamps within my house that were working perfectly for the last ~two years. For some reason, that I am unable to identify, I now cannot control the lamps anymore. The reason seems to be that the zigbee-_dimmer channel fails to initialize.
I have tested this with openHAB 3.1.0, upgraded to 3.2.0M3 and then downgraded to 3.0.2 with no changes in behavior.
The ZigBee devices show zigbee_device_initialised=true and are shown as online in the Things-Settings. If I remove power from the devices and wait some time they fall back to unknown or offline.
I have also switched from a Telegesis/Qivicon ZigBee-USB-Interface to an Ember powered Smabit AV2010/10. To version control the settings I now configure the coordinator via a .things file. Please see below.
While testing, retrying and also changing the ZigBee coordinator, I reset the Lamps multiple times via a Philips remote. If I remove them, then the process of joining them via openHAB's inbox seems to work flawlessly.
I am happy to provide more details and do testing, however I need pointers on what to do.

Logs
I have used the following logging settings to gain the attached log files:
log:set DEBUG org.openhab.binding.zigbee
log:set DEBUG com.zsmartsystems.zigbee
log:set DEBUG com.zsmartsystems.zigbee.dongle.ember.internal.ash
I have saved the log file to gist: (https://gist.github.com/yuergen/d34ac1a683f5ea4633476bbccad4add7)
The issue is caused by the binding table being full - probably you need to manually clear these out - there are commands in the console to perform this function.
Thank you very much for your response and the pointer. I have searched on how to perform the binding table clear, however I did not manage to find the information.
While I tried to find the correct openhab-cli command I noticed the nodes command and the bindtable command:

The devices where the bindtable can be queried (0017880104501CD0 and 001788010452280F), can also be controlled via openHAB. The first one (0017880104501CD0) magically repaired itself. It would not take commands for about two weeks.
I will try to set the zigbee_childtimeout to 3600 seconds to test if this does allow the binding table to be cleared over time. For anybody reading this here is the corresponding .thing file entry does look like this:
Thing zigbee:coordinator_ember:013E70B9 "ZZ Zigbee Interface" [zigbee_port="/dev/ttyUSB0", zigbee_baud=57600, zigbee_flowcontrol=2, zigbee_childtimeout=3600, zigbee_concentrator=0, zigbee_meshupdateperiod=1200, zigbee_channel=11, zigbee_panid=12345, zigbee_extendedpanid="1234598765696969", zigbee_networkkey="22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 2a 2b 2c 2d 2e 2f 30 31", zigbee_powermode=1, zigbee_txpower=8, zigbee_initialise=false]
Maybe take a look at #672 which was caused by the same issue
zigbee_childtimeout won't impact the binding table - this setting is related to child devices and when they are removed from neighbour tables - it's not related to the binding table.
I'll close this. If there's any further questions, please discuss on the forum or reopen this.
