Unsolicited command 0x19

[dbdbdb]

Hi

The conbee device serial protocol sometime send an unsolicited command 0x19 that is not documented in

https://deconz.dresden-elektronik.de/raspbian/deCONZ-Serial-Protocol-en_1.21.pdf

Anyone that know what it is?

That's a Zigbee Green Power (ZGP) raw data indication frame

CMD_GP_DATA_INDICATION = 0x19

The frame is formatted identical to the ZGP specification (just a raw copy).
If it is helpful here is the C++ code how it is processed:

Note: Often the same frame is received 3 times this needs to be filtered by the application.

bool GpDataIndication::readFromStream(QDataStream &stream)
{
    Q_D(GpDataIndication);

    if (stream.atEnd()) { return false; }
    stream >> d->nwkFrameControl;

    // check frame type
    quint8 frameType = d->nwkFrameControl & 0x03;

    if ((frameType != GP_NwkDataFrame) &&
        (frameType != GP_NwkMaintenanceFrame))
    {
        return false;
    }

    // check green power protocol version
    if (((d->nwkFrameControl >> 2)& 0x03) != GP_NwkProtocolVersion)
    {
        return false;
    }

    // extended frame control
    if (d->nwkFrameControl & GP_NwkFrameControlExtensionFlag)
    {
        if (stream.atEnd()) { return false; }
        stream >> d->nwkExtFrameControl.byte;
    }
    else
    {
        d->nwkExtFrameControl.byte = 0;
    }

    // check supported application IDs
    switch (d->nwkExtFrameControl.bits.applicationId)
    {
    case 0: // 0b000 (GP)
    case 2: // 0b010 (GP)
    case 1: // 0b001 (LPED)
        break;

    default:
        return false;
    }

    // GPD SrcID field
    if ((frameType == GP_NwkDataFrame) && (d->nwkExtFrameControl.bits.applicationId == 0))
    {
        if (stream.atEnd()) { return false; }
        stream >> d->gpdSrcId;
    }
    else if ((frameType == GP_NwkMaintenanceFrame) && (d->nwkFrameControl & GP_NwkFrameControlExtensionFlag) && (d->nwkExtFrameControl.bits.applicationId == 0))
    {
        if (stream.atEnd()) { return false; }
        stream >> d->gpdSrcId;
    }
    else
    {
        d->gpdSrcId = 0; // unspecified
    }

    // frame counter filed
    // The presence and length of the Security frame counter field is dependent on the value of ApplicationID
    // and SecurityLevel (see A.1.4.1.3).
    d->frameCounter = 0;
    if (d->nwkFrameControl & GP_NwkFrameControlExtensionFlag)
    {
        switch (d->nwkExtFrameControl.bits.applicationId)
        {
        case 0: // 0b000 (GP)
        case 2: // 0b010 (GP)
        {
            switch (d->nwkExtFrameControl.bits.securityLevel)
            {
            case 0: // 0b00 No security
            case 1: // 0b01 1LSB of frame counter and short (2B) MIC only
                break;

            case 2: // 0b10 Full (4B) frame counter and full (4B) MIC only
            case 3: // 0b11 Encryption & full (4B) frame counter and full (4B) MIC
            {

                stream >> d->frameCounter;
            }
                break;

            break;

        case 1: // 0b001 (LPED)
            break;

        default:
            break;
        }
    }

    d->gpdCommandPayload.clear();

    switch (d->nwkExtFrameControl.bits.applicationId)

Thanks a lot Manuel. I really appreciate your work! I've been using the serial protocol for a couple of years and it has been working great for me. Time for me to read up on the ZGP specification that I've mostly managed to avoid so far! :-)

Do you want to keep the issue open? In case you want to update the documentation I mean.

[manup]

Yes lets keep it open until this is completed in the docs.
