Schneider Wiser: how to set up

How to prepare the plugin for Schneider Wiser devices. See Schneider Wiser for the devices and their protocol notes.

Which Wiser are you using?

Schneider has two Wiser families, which need a different setup:

Family Devices (Zigbee models) IEEE starts with
Legacy Wiser Thermostat EH-ZB-RTS, radiator valve EH-ZB-VACT, actuators EH-ZB-HACT / EH-ZB-LMACT, smart plugs EH-ZB-SPD / EH-ZB-SPD-V2, energy meter EH-ZB-BMS 00124b
Wiser Home and other recent Schneider devices Thermostat CCTFR6400 (Wiser2-Thermostat), radiator valve CCTFR6100 (iTRV), micromodules (PUCK…), shutter switches, socket outlets… 588e81 and others

The recent devices are standard Zigbee 3.0 devices: pair them as usual (see Add a new device). If the Wiser Home thermostat doesn’t talk to the plugin, enable the Wiser2 setting (see below).

The legacy Wiser devices only work on a network with a specific extended PAN ID, and with the settings below.

Settings for legacy Wiser

All these settings are in the WebUI Settings page, with Advanced settings switched on (see WebUI Settings).

Setting Section Value Why
enableSchneiderWiser Pairing settings on The plugin asks the legacy Wiser devices for their model during pairing.
Wiser Zigpy CIE specific configuration (zigpy coordinators) on Adds the endpoint 0x0b the legacy Wiser devices talk to. Needs a plugin restart.
extendedPANID Coordinator settings xxxx484504015e10 The legacy Wiser devices only join a network whose extended PAN ID ends with 484504015e10. Replace xxxx with any 4 hexadecimal digits, for example 2141484504015e10.

For a Wiser Home thermostat (CCTFR6400) that doesn’t communicate, enable Wiser2 in Zigpy CIE specific configuration instead: it adds the endpoint 0x03 used by these devices.

The extended PAN ID requires a new network

The extended PAN ID is only applied when the coordinator forms a new network. Changing it erases the network: all the devices already paired must be paired again, whatever their brand. The other brands (Ikea, Philips, Xiaomi, Tuya…) work fine on a network with a Wiser extended PAN ID, so if you plan to use legacy Wiser devices, set it before pairing anything.

  1. Set extendedPANID (and the other settings above) and click Validate.
  2. Turn the autoRestore setting off (Zigpy CIE specific configuration, advanced): otherwise the plugin restores the last coordinator backup, with the old extended PAN ID, instead of forming a new network.
  3. Form a new network: in Domoticz, Setup > Hardware, select the plugin hardware, set Initialize Coordinator to True and click Update (see Plugin settings; if the network isn’t formed, see Form a network with a zigpy coordinator).
  4. The plugin forms the network, then sets Initialize Coordinator back to False and restarts by itself; check it in the hardware list, and set it back yourself if needed.
  5. Pair the devices, then turn autoRestore back on.

Channel

The legacy Wiser devices were tested on channels 11, 15 and 25. See Change the Zigbee channel.

Device parameters

Some Wiser devices have device parameters (room number, lock, open-window detection, shutter travel time…): see Device parameters.
