Cheap Smoke Detector doesn't show up in Phoscon (manufacturer _TZE284_rccxox8p, product TS0601)

[Volki]

It signals it successfully paired to my ConBee II, but it’s not visible in Phoscon (all up to date)
Is there a way to make it show up in Phoscon?

I just bought it from China for less than 10€, would be nice if it worked. Especially the the battery-level display, since the alarm usually goes off at 03h in the morning when it runs out of battery.

Sorry if I missed the obvious, its my first post here.
Edit: added version of ConBee
Edit2: added DeviceRequest in GitHub

The solution is available on GitHub, click here

Manufacturer: unknown
Model Identifier: unknown
I think that’s what’s preventing it from being associated with a DFF.
I’m no expert, but it seems logical to me.
I think the DDF should be created.

You need to click read and click the button on the device.

Despite seeing the sensor in Phoscon, it is not useful at all. It just displays under sensors, but can not trigger any action. All benefit I have is reading it’s battery state, when I’m proactively searching for it.

I was hoping that I could use it like “turn all lights on” or “ring an alarm” when it detects smoke, just like it is possible with the motion sensors using an automation.

Am I missing the obvious here?

Deconz is not the same thing than Phoscon, ATM you are on Deconz.

@Volki

but can not trigger any action

Yes, it’s because it’s Tuya, you can use the tuya cluster, but will be not easy for you.

Your device is a clone “_TZE200_m9skfctm” = “_TZE200_rccxox8p” = “_TZE284_rccxox8p”.

So you can start using this DDF deconz-rest-plugin/devices/tuya/_TZE200_TS0601_smoke_detector.json at master · dresden-elektronik/deconz-rest-plugin · GitHub

Just add your model.

But you will not have support for siren in this one.
If I m right it’s possible now to create support for warning device using DDF for tuya siren, but I don’t found sample.

[Volki]

Thx, I’m aware of this, but since the device is mentioned here.
Where would be the right place to discuss its use in Phoscon?

What do you mean by “Just add your model”?
I understood its already mentioned in this DDF (“_TZE284_rccxox8p” and “TS0601”).

It would be OK if I was able to turn lights or switches on in case of an alarm as an automation.

Ha yes effectively, so this device need to be supported, you are sure for modelID and Manufacture name for your device ?
Because on you capture values are “Unknow”.

What is your deconz version ?

[Volki]

deconz version is 2.31.2

My smoke detector is recognized by deconz and shows up in phoscon now. Mimiix provided me the DDF file on github, as I mentioned above.

My problem now is, that the device still is not of much use now. It cant be used in automations etc.
