I don’t think the new model is working. I forget exactly why now - if I remember correctly it’s not a motion sensor - it’s a switch and it’s designed more to communicate directly to lights rather than as part of a security system which is how motion sensors are normally defined.
Thanks @chris - that helps.
I will make sure to return the devices to Ikea accordingly and look for alternative motion sensors.
Maybe a good idea to make a remark about this in https://www.openhab.org/addons/bindings/zigbee/#devices indicating the limitations?
Yes, I agree, unfortunately the list of supported devices is a bit ad-hoc, and very incomplete. I also don’t test all devices myself, so I’m not really 100% sure of the status as it relies on others to provide updates which seldom happens.
I may look at coming up with some sort of simple database similar to the ZWave database where we can try and capture this sort of information in a more constructive way.
I’m sure it is possible - it is just a matter of time as always . I forget the issue now - it’s not a big problem, but it just doesn’t work like a standard motion sensor (as per ZigBee standards) but is presumably designed to work within the Ikea system in a different way.
