No one any idea how to get my iCasa remote to work? (see my post just above this one) @Gruijter perhaps? šŸ˜‰ ---

No need to say sorry. Very thankfull that you looked into it! šŸ‘šŸ» My thoughts were such, because I checked at the ā€œsupported devicesā€ pages of Zigbee2mqtt, I see a lot of devices using ā€œaction\_groupā€. Isnā€™t it possible to read "action\_group\_ from mqtt as well and make it avalable as a variable? ---

I guess i could do that. Your flows would be complex though, since you need to combine info from 2 variables that are not triggered simultaneous. ---

I donā€™t know anything about the Homey app, so just ignore me if Iā€™m talking nonsense, but wouldnā€™t this work: WHEN device is turned on AND action group equals ā€¦ THEN So add a condition card for `action_group` (or at least a token containing the group the action was sent to, so you can use a regular Logic card to test equality). ---

I had recently a situation where my SLZB-06 coordinator started having buffer full issues resulting in that it didnā€™t report anything to Zigbee2MQTT server. Now I didnā€™t check, if there is any MQTT messages, but was wondering if the bridge card ā€™`Msgs/minute became less than`ā€™ could have been used to trigger on such event? This would help in triggering a power cycle the coordinator (restart was not enough). ---

Which looks like a floor value for the past week anyway. Will need to do some monitoring on that. There is a zigbee dev firmware update for SLZB to address the buffer full problem, but that version may require to re-pair all 84 devices. Need to wait for a stable version for that. ---

That is a lot of messages by the way. What is your log level set at. Level ā€˜Infoā€™ should give the best results. ---

Any chance to get Z2M scene support in a further release. Some background why I am looking forward to it. I moved all my Hue Lamps to Z2M and use Biforst as Hue Emulator [GitHub - chrivers/bifrost: Hue Bridge Emulator](https://github.com/chrivers/bifrost) The Hue App is still my primary frontend. With Bifrost as Hue emulator I have support for all original features (including effects, entertainment area in testing, just Dynamic Scenes need to be implemented) without a hue bridge in background. Everything is done through Biforst and Z2M Creating a Group/ Room scene in the Hue App (including the originals of the app) they are written in z2m scenes of the group/room. This makes the original Hue scenes universally available through z2m So it would be great if the Hue Scenes can be used in Homey, too via Z2M Scenes. This will eliminate the need of the Homey Hue (API) App but will include all features of it within the flows ---

Since the last update youā€™re able to set payloads in groups. That way you can also store and recall scenes using the following payload: {ā€œscene\_recallā€: 100} {ā€œscene\_storeā€: 100} The number e.g. 100 in this case is the number of the scene you want to either store or recall. If you want to store a scene with a number that doesnā€™t exists, it creates a scene with that number. I hope this helps šŸ™‚ ---

I have a SMLIGHT SLZB-06 ethernet/Zigbee device. I want to extend my zigbee signal from my homey to another building via ethernet. I have set up the device to act as a zigbee router and it is on the same network as my homey. In my homey pro I have installed the app - Zigbee2MQTT. I am trying to connect to the SLZB-06 device via the app, but without success. Do I need to install an MQTT client or Broker to make it work.
