In HS2, I use the device status of an OS sensor (THGN122) to determine whether or not I'm home (a little odd, I know, but I find it more reliable than bluetooth, for example). If the status of the sensor is ON I'm home; if there is a communication failure, the status is OFF and HS2 knows I'm not home.
In HS3, the same sensor is shown as not supporting status (Supports Status = False), I've tried using the "Invalid or error state" of an event to determine if the sensor is in range, but that doesn't seem to get triggered by a communication failure.
Is this a limitation of the new RFXCOM HS3 plugin? Does anyone know of another way to detect a communication failure in an event?
Thanks,
Marc
P.S. I'm using an RFXtrx433 transceiver.
