This example shows how to configure the Zigbee end device and use it as a Home Automation (HA) on/off light.
Currently, this example supports the following targets.
Supported Targets | ESP32-C6 | ESP32-H2 |
---|
- One development board (ESP32-H2 or ESP32-C6) acting as Zigbee coordinator (loaded with Zigbee_On_Off_switch example)
- A USB cable for power supply and programming
- Choose another board (ESP32-H2 or ESP32-C6) as Zigbee end device and upload the Zigbee_On_Off_Light example
Set the LED GPIO by changing the LED_PIN
definition. By default, the LED_PIN is RGB_BUILTIN
.
By default, the neoPixelWrite
function is used to control the LED. You can change it to digitalWrite to control a simple LED.

- Before Compile/Verify, select the correct board:
Tools -> Board
. - Select the End device Zigbee mode:
Tools -> Zigbee mode: Zigbee ED (end device)
- Select Partition Scheme for Zigbee:
Tools -> Partition Scheme: Zigbee 4MB with spiffs
- Select the COM port:
Tools -> Port: xxx
where thexxx
is the detected COM port.
If the End device flashed with this example is not connecting to the coordinator, erase the flash before flashing it to the board. It is recommended to do this if you did changes to the coordinator. You can do the following:
- In the Arduino IDE go to the Tools menu and set
Erase All Flash Before Sketch Upload
toEnabled
- In the sketch uncomment function
esp_zb_nvram_erase_at_start(true);
located inesp_zb_task
function.
By default, the coordinator network is open for 180s after rebooting or flashing new firmware. After that, the network is closed for adding new devices.
You can change it by editing esp_zb_bdb_open_network(180);
in esp_zb_app_signal_handler
function.
Important: Make sure you are using a good quality USB cable and that you have a reliable power source
- LED not blinking: Check the wiring connection and the IO selection.
- Programming Fail: If the programming/flash procedure fails, try reducing the serial connection speed.
- COM port not detected: Check the USB cable and the USB to Serial driver installation.
