Fibaro FGMS-001 in habmin reported as FGMS001 TLDR: sensor is reporting motion Protocol: zwave Channel reported: binary sensor (don’t use for motion) temperature seismic intensity luminance motion alarm (use for motion) tamper alarm battery level general alarm Discovery in openHAB: I could not get this sensor to be recognized, it showed as unknown device and ultimately required a new snapshot version of the binding to be recognized. At least one post in link indicates it should have worked in 2.4 version binding here is link: > [@\[SOLVED\]Get Fibaro FGMS-001 motion sensor to initialize](https://community.openhab.org/t/solved-get-fibaro-fgms-001-motion-sensor-to-initialize/66260/17): > > If anyone has read my [post](https://community.openhab.org/t/fibaro-motion-sensor-not-recognized/63595/26) from yesterday, you could have known this already. Battery type CR123A not cheap More details: This motion sensor is now reporting motion in openHAB. It was tricky to get recognized and took waking it up a couple times to finally start reporting but it is working. Will add more as I learn Golf ball shaped sensor with cat eye LED no magnetic mount, just a little clip it snaps in to that can be screwed to something --- _[View the full topic](https://community.openhab.org/t/openhab-friendly-motion-sensor-suggestions/63067)._
