Cause
The SED-TRH-G-5045 is a Zigbee pro sleepy end device.
Resolution
Any Zigbee router within the system can function as a repeater to extend the radio communication. The router should be positioned within the radio range of the sensor and within the range of the RPx or another router.
If a Zigbee device is powered by mains, it typically operates as a router. While there are currently no SE products designed solely with "repeater capability," several SE products possess router capabilities in addition to other capabilities,
- SE8000 SpaceLogic room controller
- Wiser plug CCTFR6500
- Wiser Power Micromodule CCTFR6730
- Wiser Room Thermostat with display CCTFR6400 or CCTFR6401.
We have not officially tested any 3rd party Zigbee routers, however the IKEA TRÅDFRI repeater is known to work effectively.
