MQTT: state and commands

Zigbee2MQTT publishes the device state to zigbee2mqtt/my_device (my_device is the name you give the device). An example message:

{
  "device_temperature": 31,
  "power": 12.4,
  "voltage": 2950,
  "current": 0.06,
  "energy": 3.21,
  "energy_tier_1": 0,
  "energy_tier_2": 0,
  "energy_tier_3": 0,
  "energy_tier_4": 0,
  "battery_life": 0,
  "tamper": false,
  "battery_low": false,
  "device_address_preset": 50000000,
  "device_measurement_preset": 128,
  "linkquality": 120
}

Send commands to zigbee2mqtt/my_device/set:

mosquitto_pub -t zigbee2mqtt/my_device/set -m '{"device_model_preset":"KASKAD-1-MT (MIRTEK)"}'

How to pair it

  1. In Zigbee2MQTT click Permit join.
  2. Put the device in pairing mode: usually a long press of the reset button (5–10 s) until the LED blinks; bulbs: switch the power off and on 5–6 times.
  3. Keep the device close to the coordinator or a router while pairing.
  4. Give it a clear name: MQTT topics and Home Assistant entities are built from it.

Exact procedure and model notes: the device page in the Zigbee2MQTT docs. No coordinator yet: coordinator picker.
