Aeotec Multisensor Gen 5 - Motion sensor drained the batteries

Configuration Z-Wave

Hi all,

warning z-wave newbie.

Could somebody share their Aeotec ZW074 MultiSensor Gen5 configuration. I was having problems getting the motion sensor working and followed some examples provided on this forum and then eventually got it to work by following this topic. Aeotec Multisensor 6 - polling doesn’t works properly.

But the dam batteries drained in 2 days.

OZWCP - Multisensor configuration:

  1. Command Options set to - Binary Senor Reporting
  2. Wake up 10 minutes on power on - set to yes and value to 10.
    all other values are default.

And this is my automation:(works perfectly with my Hue Sensor)

   alias: Porch Motion Light on
   trigger:
   - platform: state
     entity_id: binary_sensor.aeotec_zw074_multisensor_gen5_sensor_4_0
     to: 'on'
   condition:
   - condition: time
     after: '16:00:00'
     before: '06:00:00'
   action:
     service: script.turn_on
     entity_id: script.porch_timed_light

Thanks in advance

It did for me also when i used VeraEdge. Today I have them all powered with USB cable.
I think it was because of i pulled the device to often.
