And if the current test version of the Tuya Zigbee app does not support your specific Zigbee device, you can request the developer to add support for it. Check out the first post of this thread for details on how to make such a request.
Thanks Peter for linking this version of the App. It works very well without any problems.
Thanks and best regards

The source code for your project is available, but is there a tutorial for using the raw data obtained from the device interview to use in device.js and driver.compose.js? My switches are not yet in the test version.
Switch is pretty simple
In most cases you can just add manufacturer ID alongside other switches and install manually
Also, most zigbee switches can work out of the box (on/off) with default Zigbee driver
I was able to add the devices using the project on github and putting the manufacturerName in drivers with the same functionalities. I have a 3 gang dimmer from MOES (â_TZE204_1v1dxkckâ / âTS0601â) that worked on the 2 gang tuya dimmer - but I need a 3 gang. As it is a Tuya device, it has its own protocol. The Tuya ZigBee driver has auxiliary files (tuyaHelpers.js, etc.) but this adaptation is not going smoothly for meâŠ
The 3 gang dimmer from Moes (TS0601 _Tze204_1Dxkck) works with Tuya proprietary protocol (the 0xter 0xef00 (61184 in decimal) is the Tuya Specific cluster, used for proprietary tuya communication. It does not follow the traditional zigbee pattern and requires the use of datapoints (DPIDs) to control each gang of gang of dimmer.) I configured the Dimmer 2 Gang driver and checked the debug - gang1 dp1 - on/off; DP2 Dimmer (0-1000), Gang2 - DP7 Onoff/DP8 - Dimmer (0-1000) and Gang3 - DP15 Onoff, DP16 Dimmer Level. But LIB TUYADATAPOINT.JS is configured for only 2 gangs in V1_multi_gang_dimmer_switch_data_Points. I tried to modify the code but my knowledge of JavaScript is small, and it was not successful.
Hi! Installed the test version of the app and try to add the garden irrigation controller, but I only see the devices from the official app, not all the other ones, including the garden controller. What am I doing wrong/missing?
Hi Johan,
I regret to inform you that the problem persists in v0.2.73. I hope you can find the root cause.

Hi,
Iâve ordered a simple 1 button Tuya scene switch, itâs called â1 Gang wall remoteâ in the Tuya app. When I add the button on my 2023 Homey Pro is shows up in the devices after putting the button in learning mode, however the button doesnât exit learning mode and keeps blinking. After about 5 seconds the button is reported as missing in Homey. If I repair the button from the maintenance screen, (while it is still blinking) it says itâs all okay again but 5 seconds later a red error icon appears again and the button is reported missing. By that time the learning mode times out and the button stops blinking. It stays missing in the Homey app.
Iâm using experimental version 0.2.73.
Are there more people with these âscene switchesâ that have this same problem? And more importantly, does anyone know a fix?
Thanks!
Edit: In the same shipment I also received a Tuya water leak sensor, it shows exactly the same behavior. It wonât exit the learning mode and keeps blinking. It also goes missing shortly after being added to the Homey Zigbee mesh.
I donât get your findings;
Does it stop or doesnât it stop?
You seem to draw conclusions too quick maybe.
What happens when you just add it, and then wait until the blinking stops, donât read any returned messages.
Is it now added, or isnât it?
Hi,
After the button stops blinking the device is still reported as missing.
When you open the device it says it has âleft the Zigbee networkâ.
Hi @johan_bendz @Bert_van_Hoekelen_sr could You please check this new device requests?
Thanks.
Regards.
Please read the first post. Also, most likely you can add yourself if itâs a device already supported by the app. I posted how a few posts back
Great! I managed to do it myself despite my ignorance of coding!
Iâm really happy.
Thanks for making me read it; Iâll be less stupid today.

Anyone else have had problem with their zigbee mesh? Homey seems to be doing a terrible job at it. Many of my smart switches are having a hard time connecting to homey when far away. My 10 dolar zigbee hub from tuya does a way better job. This is so frustrating. Really considering going to HA, this should be the ONE thing Homey should be good at. Maybe their signal is too strong and donât let devices conect to routers, idk. What I know is that my way cheaper device is doing a better job than a 200 dolar one
No, I donât have any problem at all. First: how did you set up your zigbee mesh? You should start with routers close by the main-device, and after that connecting non-router-devices, so the can make use of the existing network. In most cases smart switches are no router-devices, so the need an existing mesh-network.
Adding new temp hum sensor fails with beta app.
It always states that it is a unknown zigbee device.
What i am doing wrong?
Itâs most probably not supported. Tuya tends to put different IDâs in devices of exactly the same model.
Please read post nÂș 1 of this topic on how to proceed.
Not sure if thatâs the case. As far as I know, most mains powered devices act as zigbee routers.
Most (or every) âwithout neutralâ devices, and battery powered devices donât.
Yeah, followed all the âgood practicesâ for creating a zigbee mesh. All my smart switches require a neutral cable and homey shows that they are routers. Added the switches close to homey first, homey in the middle of my living room in an open space, 1.5m away from my wifi router. Donât even added a no router device yet. When I go to add my switch that is at my front door, it keeps disconecting or laggin a lot. There is a switch 3m away from it that is connected to homey and working great. Iâm sure the faulty switch itâs connecting directly to Homey, cause when I move homey to the side of the switch, it works great.
By what iâve been reading, probably Athom put a too strong zigbee antena on homey, ofuscating the signal from the switches close by. But zigbee is a 2way signal, so if the switch donât have a matching powerful antena, it wonât be able to send signal. But this last part is just a theory of mine.
Also when I disconect all the switches and connect them to my Tuya Hub it works flawless. Will try to reset my zigbee network today, but iâm not putting much hope in it. Will stick to the tuya hub untill I can migrate to HA. Homey is looking more and more to be a joke device for me, sadly.
