Help with the LIDL gateway (Tuya + HomeKit version) #470

Hi,

I recently bought a LIDL gateway, the latest model with HomeKit support and usb-c socket (zigggi3hlcctmait).
I've integrated it in https://eu.iot.tuya.com/cloud and got local key for it.

I've tried this code:

#!/usr/bin/env python3


import tinytuya


def main():
    tinytuya.set_debug(True)

    gw = tinytuya.Device(
        "xxxxxxxx",
        address="XXX.YYY.ZZZ.WWW",
        local_key="xxxxxxxx",
        version=3.5,
    )

    print(gw.status())


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

But I only got that:
{'Error': 'Check device key or version', 'Err': '914', 'Payload': None}

Does someone have experience with this LIDL gateway and tinytuya?

Many thanks in advance and kind regards,

fsutter

This is good and proves the local key and other data is correct. I wonder if your gateway just doesn't respond to either status() or subdev_query() requests? If you know the Device ID and CID of a paired device then you could try polling it instead with

#!/usr/bin/env python3


import tinytuya


def main():
    tinytuya.set_debug(True)

    gw = tinytuya.Device(
        "xxxxxxxx",
        address="XXX.YYY.ZZZ.WWW",
        local_key="xxxxxxxx",
        version=3.5,
        persist=True,
    )

    zigbee1 = tinytuya.Device( 'eb14...w', cid='0011223344556601', parent=gw )

    print(zigbee1.s…

What does python3 -m tinytuya scan return for it?

Oh yeah, a lot of gateways do not respond to gw.status() requests, you'll need to either call .status() on a sub-device or request a list of sub-devices from the gateway with gw.subdev_query().

Hi,
I tested with this code:

#!/usr/bin/env python3


import tinytuya


def main():
    tinytuya.set_debug(True)

    gw = tinytuya.Device(
        "xxxxxxxx",
        address="XXX.YYY.ZZZ.WWW",
        local_key="xxxxxxxx",
        version=3.5,
    )

    print(gw.subdev_query())


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

But same result:
{'Error': 'Check device key or version', 'Err': '914', 'Payload': None}

Do you need the debug trace?

The end goal is to read the values (temp and humidity from a nous sensor which is connected to the gateway.
I suppose that I have to go through the gateway, right?

Thanks

Yep. There's no other way to talk to Zigbee/BLE sensors.

Double-check that the device id, local key, and IP address are correct; I've seen copy/paste errors cause problems before. If they're good then I'm going to need to see a debug log.

I've checked and double-checked multiple times.

Here is the log of the subdev_query command:

This is good and proves the local key and other data is correct. I wonder if your gateway just doesn't respond to either status() or subdev_query() requests? If you know the Device ID and CID of a paired device then you could try polling it instead with

#!/usr/bin/env python3


import tinytuya


def main():
    tinytuya.set_debug(True)

    gw = tinytuya.Device(
        "xxxxxxxx",
        address="XXX.YYY.ZZZ.WWW",
        local_key="xxxxxxxx",
        version=3.5,
        persist=True,
    )

    zigbee1 = tinytuya.Device( 'eb14...w', cid='0011223344556601', parent=gw )

    print(zigbee1.status())

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

The above also sets persistent as it's a good idea unless you're only sending 1 command every now and then.

How to I know the cid value for a paired device ?
Thanks

I found it, it is node_id 🧐

It works now!

What is the purpose of the persist parameter ?

Thanks

Without it, TinyTuya connects, performs a 3-way handshake to negotiate the session key, sends 1 command, and then immediately disconnects. Adding persist=True tells it to keep the connection open so it can send more commands without needing to handshake again and also allows it to receive asynchronous temperature/state/status updates. A device will close the connection if it hasn't received anything in ~20 seconds, so you also need to send heartbeats every ~15 seconds or so if you want to keep it open.
