Arduino-esp32 Zigbee example: switch end device

[Antonia-place]

Hello,
I am new into Zigbee network and I want to create a mini-network using ESP32-C6 as end devices and an Linux machine with Zigbee2Mqtt and Node-Red as coordinator and display.
I found the examples from here, and I used until now the temperature sensor and light lamp: https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/tree/master/libraries/ESP32/examples/Zigbee
Now, I want to add another esp32-c6 acting like an end device switch but I don't know how to do that. I start to modify the temperature sensor example without any results.
This is my work until now:
Zigbee_switch_05.zip
In the ESP32 Zigbee example forled I see an similar example but is set as coordinator and this is not good for my network, because I need an switch as end device.
Could you, please, help me to solve this issue regarding to an zigbee switch example end device?
Thank you,
Mihai

Hello @Antonia-place,

I am not sure about your question.

BTW. Our implementation of Zigbee library is in progress here: #10265

@P-R-O-C-H-Y can provide more details

Hello @VojtechBartoska ,
My question is related to the modification of switch example toi act as an end device only, because i want to use it with Zigbee2Mqtt and Node-Red on a Linux Machine.
I tried to do this but I see that all examples uses FreeRTOS and is not clear for me what shlud modify there.

Thank you,
Mihai

Hi @Antonia-place, the examples in libraries/ESP32/examples/Zigbee are always made in pairs so they can run on 2 ESP32s devices as standalone zigbee network. Thats why on/off light example is set to be an end device and switch as coordinator.

For sure you can edit the Zigbee_Light_Switch example to act as end device or router.

Just to inform you those examples will be removed soon, as there is a Zigbee library pending PR #10265 with its own examples, that may be a lot easier to use. You can take a look there.

About your case right know, I assume to use the on/off light + on/off switch example, extract the Zigbee initialisation part of the end device one and replace it in the switch example.

Hello @P-R-O-C-H-Y P_R,
I tested the examples Light_Bulb and Light_Switch, both flashed on ESP32-V3, with succes. Moreover, I connected the Light_bulb to Zigbee2Matt and I was able to send the On/Off state from Node-Red. Now, I want to modify the Light_Switch to act as an end device, to connect it to Zigbee2mqtt, but I can do that because I am not shure how to properly modify the example from coordinator to end-device. In the first topic I attached my modifications for this.
I tryed to change only the ESP_ZB_ZED_CONFIG, ZIGBEE_MODE_ED (from the very begining of the code) and add ED_AGING_TIMEOUT and ED_KEEP_ALIVE in /* Zigbee configuration */ se ction; the code compile with succes, in arduino console i see the respons from the press on-board button; in Zigbee2mqtt I "see" the device but no modification of status button is present.
Could you, please, give me some hints what should I modify to achive the transformation from coordinator to end device, for the Light_Switch Example? I mean explicitly which lines to modify/add and where?

Thank you,
Mihai
