Xiaomi Mi Smart Plug

Installation on the ZipaTile/ZipaBox:

We have already had 2 controllers where this plug has been successfully added. So we move on to the next one and this is the ZipaTile with Zigbee controller. Xiaomi products sometimes give problems with this hub. So I'm not very hopeful that this will work. We will of course try.

We login to the ZipaTile through the web interface and go to our devices. We then click on the "add device" and click on Zigbee because the plug supports this protocol.

To start adding on the plug we have to hold the button on the top for 5 seconds. The LED on the front will first light up red and then flash blue. The ZipaTile indicates that the plug has been found, but unfortunately I cannot operate it and I see in the configuration that the correct type has not been found. I can't change this either and because of this the plug cannot be used.
