The SMLIGHT SLZB integrationIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] allows users to monitor and manage their SLZB-06x devices directly from within Home Assistant and to directly access many of the features found in the SMLIGHT web UI. You can also use these in your automations.

Prerequisites

You need a supported SLZB-06 adapter.

This integration has been tested with the following devices:

Core firmware on your SLZB-06x device must be v2.3.6 or newer. If you have an older v2.x.x version, you can update from within Home Assistant. If you have v0.9.9, update using the SMLIGHT web flasher before installing this integration.

Configuration

To add the SMLIGHT SLZB device to your Home Assistant instance, use this My button:

SMLIGHT SLZB can be auto-discovered by Home Assistant. If an instance was found, it will be shown as Discovered. You can then set it up right away.

Manual configuration steps

  • Browse to your Home Assistant instance.

  • Go to Settings > Devices & Services.

  • In the bottom right corner, select the Add Integration button.

  • From the list, select SMLIGHT SLZB.

  • Follow the instructions on screen to complete the setup.

Sensors

The following sensors will be created:

  • Core temperature - Temperature of core ESP32
  • Zigbee temperature - Temperature of Zigbee CC2652 or EFR32 chip
  • Core uptime - Uptime of Core device
  • Zigbee uptime - Uptime of Zigbee connection to ZHA/Z2M
  • RAM usage - Monitor RAM Usage
  • FS usage - Monitor filesystem usage
  • Connection mode - Connection mode - Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or USB
  • Ethernet - Ethernet connection status
  • Internet - Internet connection status
  • VPN - WireGuard VPN client connection status
  • Wi-Fi - Wi-Fi connection status
  • Firmware channel - Channel for updates, stable, or development firmware or currently installed firmware.
  • Zigbee type - Current mode of Zigbee chip. Coordinator, router, or Thread. Only works with official firmware installed via OTA in SMLIGHT web UI.

Buttons

The following buttons will be created:

  • Core restart - Restart core ESP32
  • Zigbee restart - Restart Zigbee CCCC2652 or EFR32 chip
  • Zigbee flash mode - Trigger the Zigbee chip into bootloader flash mode so it can be flashed. It is possible to flash Zigbee firmware over a network socket once this is activated.
  • Reconnect Zigbee router - Place the router into pairing mode to join a new Zigbee network. This is only created if the SLZB-06x device is in Zibgee router mode.

Switches

The following switches will be created:

  • Auto Zigbee update - This allows the core firmware on SLZB-06x to manage Zigbee firmware updates and it will automatically install updates when they are released.
  • Disable LEDs - Disable all LEDs on the SLZB-06x device.
  • LED night mode - Enables night mode, which turns off the LEDs overnight, based on the times set in SLZB-06x web UI.
  • Enable VPN - Enable WireGuard VPN client (requires configuration via the SMLIGHT web UI).

Updates

The following update entities will be created:

  • Core firmware - Core firmware updates of SLZB-06x firmware
  • Zigbee firmware - Firmware updates of Zigbee chip

The updates offered in Home Assistant will match your currently installed firmware. This is based on the firmware channel (dev, release) and for Zigbee also on the firmware type (coordinator, router, Thread). If you wish to switch channels, install the different firmware type in the SMLIGHT web UI. You will get notifications when new firmware updates are available to install.
