I am having the sam problem: I have a pst02-A sensor. I can get the temperature, illuminance and battery life without a problem. But no motion and no contact. I have tried numerous things, with and without .map files. Same thing, no luck. Any pointer you can share? In the event.log the same thing happens. Nothing about motion and contact.
Hi,
I also do not receive updates from the PST02A :it shows temperature and lux correctly and the status of the door sensor but it doesn’t update the status of the door when I open or close it.
Ok, I figured it out. This is for PST-02A (aka Zipato Multisensor Quad PH-PSM02.EU)
In order to get motion and door reports bit 4 of parameter 7 needs to be set to 1 (“Using sensor binary report”)
By default parameter 7 has bit 2 set (“PIR super sensitivity mode”) so setting bit 4 is like this:
However, I also wanted to receive an OFF event when the PIR was no longer detecting motion (can also be done programmatically in OpenHab and probably save battery life)
So I also set bit 1 in parameter 7, giving me a value of ‘22’
I also set the temperature scale to Celsius (bit 3 of parameter 5 set) so parameter 5 has a value of ‘8’)
I have increased the PIR sensitivity to 90 but I find it to miss on motion detection sometimes (anyone else with this problem?).
The thermometer seems to be awfully inaccurate, reporting over four degrees above the real temperature.
These are the items that work with the setup described above:
Number Temp "Temp. [%.1f C]" {zwave="12:0:command=SENSOR_MULTILEVEL,sensor_type=1"}
Number Lux "Light [%.0f Lux]" {zwave="12:0:command=SENSOR_MULTILEVEL,sensor_type=3"}
Contact Motion "Motion [%s]" {zwave="12:0:command=SENSOR_BINARY,sensor_type=12,respond_to_basic=true"}
Contact Door "Door state [%s]" {zwave="12:0:command=SENSOR_BINARY,sensor_type=10,respond_to_basic=true"}
Number Battery "Battery [%s %%]" {zwave="12:0:command=BATTERY"}
Guys, is it possible to get the Lux value at a specific time point as this Philio posts sensor values when the window/door opens/closes only. Is there any kind of setting like e.g. “send sensor data when Lux > 50”
Normally a sensor is configured to send data periodically, or when something changes, so it depends on the sensor. You should consult the manual to see how to configure the parameters. You will likely need to set an association group with the controller so that the controller becomes the destination for the reports, but the reporting interval etc will be down to device configuration.
Philio Reports brightness and temperature every time there is movement or door change.
Also you can enable cyclic reports. It is obviously shown in the screenshot from tomekz28.
Thanks for your hints, guys, but it seems I can´t use this feature, as one “tick” equals 30 minutes.
I would like to get the illumination values at a certain time point to either enable lights in the floor or disable them.
Is there a way to get them manually or by a request?
Ok, just realized that the tick size of 30 can be amended. This might help, but I´m still interested in getting values manually or the sensor itself should send a signal if a certain value has been reached.
Not really. A battery device sleeps most of the time, so you can’t talk to it when it’s asleep. You could set the wakeup really small, and then this would work, but your battery would be dead very quickly.
Hi, I have encountered a problem and hope you can help me. Thank you very much!
I also used Aeon Labs z-stick gen5 z-wave controller and a door sensor. In terminal I can see Node 2 sensor reporting 0 or 255 ad the door sensor is tripped. But in the demo site I see “Front Door” don’t indicate if the door is open or closed. Below is Dwhat I put in demo.items:
Contact Door "Front Door [%s]" (FF_office) {zwave="2:command=sensor_binary,sensor_type=10,respond_to_basic=true"}
