i purchased assortment of sensors company , have been having little success in getting them communicate software. sent note manufacturer asking compatibility , told devices use 'proprietary zigbee'.
what mean? use different command set? information encrypted somehow?
if "zigbee certified" or have zigbee logo on packaging, have implement standard zigbee protocols, including zcl (zigbee cluster library) , zdo/zdp (zigbee device object/profile) on endpoint 0.
their product include manufacturer-specific clusters undocumented commands.
if they're using zcl, standard zdo discovery should still work , allow enumerate endpoints , clusters don't have manufacturer-specific bit set. if know 16-bit manufacturer id they're using, can discover attributes well, , display values (you won't know though).
you should consider reading zcl specification @ zigbee.org, may understand how zigbee devices communicate each other. explains manufacturer-specific extensions standard.
