    Aeon Multisensor 6 - no motion

    Just purchased the Aeon Multisensor 6 and successfully added it to HS3, creating the root Sensor plus 7 children. However, despite showing Motion as one of them, I cannot get the sensor to show motion to HS3. I've upgraded to the latest sensor firmware 1.6 (1.06 on Aeotec web site), but this has not changed. Any suggestions on how to get motion activities to show up in HS3 show I can start controlling some lighting actions? Running latest Zwave plugin and latest HS3.

    Have you confirmed that HomeSeer is associated on Association Group 1?

      Yes it is. And VERY occasionally it will report motion to HS3....maybe once every couple of hours, in a room where motion is happening fairly constantly.

        Have you tried adjusting Parameter 6 to increase the sensitivity?

          I think Homeseer broke it in the latest version (3.0.27.i know... Internal Testing Only). Mine worked in earlier release but with that I don't get any motion detection at all.

            Running 3.0.0.199; have set parameter 6 to 64 to try, but does not change characteristics unfortunately.

              That's the HS3 version, I talked about the Z-wave-plugin version.

                I believe 64 is the default. Try a higher number (up to 127).

                  I have attached the parameter sheet Christopher sent me. I don't see parameter 6 for sensitivity, but parameter 4 is.

                  Did you get some different information?

                    Hi Randy,

                    This is the manual I have which does not even reference parameter 4. I'm waiting for mine to show up so can't actually test it myself yet.

                    Cheers

                      Typical Aeon I sent an email to Christopher Cheng asking for clarification. I don't have mine yet either. I'll have some Monday.

                        Try http://www.pepper1.net/zwavedb/devices

                        Parameter 4 1 byte is set to 0 by default. Motion disabled.

                        Set Parameter 4 to range 1 to 5 (max sensitivity)

                        Seems a daft default value when it is advertised as a multimotion.

                        Hope that helps

                          I now have one of these, updated the firmware and included into HS3 without problem. Motion worked straight out of the box. Parameter 4 was set to 5 by default, as it says in the manual posted earlier in this thread. I needed to set a reasonable reporting time interval before the climate sensors started updating. Mine is on USB power.
                          So far so good.

                            Thanks for the insight folks. How do you know parameter 4 is set to 5? I know how to use events to set parameters but have yet to figure out how to retrieve them. I feel like Homeseer is amazing but lacks the Z-wave network info you can get from the razberry. I've found the /ZwaveConfig page, but feel like there must be some other pages of detailed info that I am just missing.

                            Thanks again.

                              Interesting I have the same problem, I assumed was an issue with my zwave range. It would report all the other values, i.e. temperature, humidity and etc. but occasionally the motion. Thanks for creating a thread for it.
