Worked for me too. Many thanks.
Has anyone else had a problem with 0.92.2?
For my checklist:
- I retrieved the
binary_sensor.pyanddlink.pyfrom the Feb 23 post by @postlund. - I placed both in
\home\homeassistant\.homeassistant\custom_components\dlink_motion_sensor. - I added an empty file named
__init__.pyin thedlink_motion_sensorfolder. - I have this in my config:
# Binary Sensors
binary_sensor:
# Ring
- platform: ring
# D-Link Motion Sensor
- platform: dlink_motion_sensor
name: Motion Sensor
host: !secret motion_sensor_host
password: !secret motion_sensor_password
# Ping
- platform: ping
host: !secret ping_host
count: 2
scan_interval: 5
When I comment out or remove the motion sensor in the config, everything is fine. When I add it back I receive 500 Internal Server Error Server got itself in trouble. My guess is that thereās an issue with the component; since the config worked before. Do I need some sort of boilerplate in the __init__.py?
Where do you see the internal server error? You should have a stacktrace somewhere, wonāt be possible to debug without it.

Here we go. I thought for a moment after looking at this that maybe the detectorās IP address had changed. But no, it is still the same.
OMG! never mindā¦
Dang!
I use the save link as in github. Of course that saved the whole html page not just the fileā¦ sorry /facepalm
Yeah, you did 
Hi there, just a quick message to convey my thanks. Iāve been using home assistant as an end user for about a year now, but I havenāt got much programming skills, so this is just my way of contributing I guess. Your custom integration for the motion sensor works very well and was very usefull in my home situation!
Just summarizing for other people who would be interested: Put the two files from github in the config folder under ācustom_components/dlink_motion_sensorā. Then add an empty file called "__init__.py" to the same folder, otherwise it wonāt work. Then reboot HA. Lastly, add this to the configuration.yaml:
binary_sensor:
- platform: dlink_motion_sensor
name: Some sensor
host: dlink_motion_sensor_ip_address
password: !secret motion_sensor_password
The password should be the pin code that comes with the sensor.

If you use Hassio reboot system, not only HA. (menu: Hassio -> System -> Reboot). Iāve spent hours to solve this issue :).
Not working on 94.4 for anyone else?
It works in 0.94.4 as before.

Nevermind got it working. Just needed a power cycle
Iām now finding that after every HA restart or update i need to power cycle the motion sensor for it to work again
Iām still stuck at this error. On 0.95 here.
āIntegration dlink_motion_sensor not found when trying to verify its binary_sensor platform.ā
Thank you for the summary, this was really helpful. However I have one question, is there a way of retrieving the pin code if you cannot remember it? 
I do have the sensor setup in the dlink app and IFTTT if that helps me?
Itās on the back of the sensor. At least on the two units I have.

Thank you very much, the plug did have the pin!
Hi,
I noticed today at 12:03 pm a sensor triggered and 12:09 pm another sensor triggered in home assistant, as we arenāt home right now I thought thatās strange but then I checked the Dlink app for both of these sensors and it shows these times but they show up as yesterday the 20th and none triggered today. Strange as these 2 sensors only triggered once today at these 2 times. Bit of a coincidence.
Could this be a bug in the code? At first I thought maybe I was reading the home assistant log incorrectly but I was not mistaken.
Does anyone know if this has happened to them, I wonder if it has something to do with it being just after 12.
is anybody still using this with Home Assistant 0.105.3?
I pulled down the 3 files from GitHub, tried different folders but then gives me error after the add to the configuration.yaml
in which path you guys have the 3 files? is it still compatible with 0.105.3?
thanks
I use it and it works.
where did you put the 3 file .py?
