Aeotec multisensor 6 ZW100 - help

[basti4k (Sebastian)]

I bought the new aeotec multisensor 6 and he work good in HA.

I still have a few questions and do not understand everything:

1. What are the best settings for LIVE broadcasts? (No battery, only USB)
2. I do not know where the sensor indicates the movements?
3. What is home_security_motion_detected and home_security_tampering_cover_removed
4. The binary_sensor.eingang_zw100_multisensor_1_sensor <- I have switched on myself, is that okay?

Here my ZW100 Config:

are the settings correct?

HA Output:

My basic idea is as follows:
I enter the room “hallway” and the “motion detector” from ZW100 goes on. Then I can have a light switched on. After 3 minutes the light goes off.
When I walk through the room “hallway” again, the light goes on again.

Does such an idea work with the sensor?

Reduce On time to something low (I use 10 seconds). This defines how long the motion sensor will show ‘on’ if it detects motion, so currently it will change to ‘on’, once motion is detected and after 240 seconds it will go to ‘off’. This means that if you would reenter the room within those 4 minutes, it would not detect a new motion.

Change Command Options to Binary Sensor Report or whatever it’s called exactly. Then you’ll get an entity in Hone Assistant binary_sensor.xxx, which will show on/off when there is motion/no motion.

Tampering cover rwmoved is a sensor that shows if someone removed the backplate of the Multisensor as far as I know.

Very nice!

Wuhu, it works like this Config! Perfect! Thanks!

Ah okay.

Is the Awake Timeout 255 fine? What is here the default?

Thanks!

Don’t know anything about this sorry.

okay thanks!

i open the backplate, but the sensor say: safe

[Burningstone]

Just tested myself, it’s not about the cover being removed, but rather the sensor being moved or someone fiddling around with the sensor physically. I turned mine around a bit and changed the angle and then it detected tamper.

ah okay, thanks.

the binary_sensor.eingang_zw100_multisensor_1_sensor on/off works now good.
