Eva Motion Sensor (HSE2927E) and Zigbee2MQTT. How should it work?

Configuration Zigbee
1

Not using any HUB. Based on zigbee2mgqq and mosquitto broker.

Zigbee2MQTT found the sensor once it was powered up. The sensor reports this when Zigbee2MQTT is started:

topic: zigbee2mqtt/0x847127fffeea2f89
Qos: 0
message content: {“battery_low”:false,“illuminance”:null,“illuminance_lux”:null,“linkquality”:255,“occupancy”:false,“tamper”:false,“temperature”:null}

But after that it is complete silent. The sensor blinks red, indicating movement. But it does not report anything. Should it not send data about temp, light and other stuff from time to time?
Anybody using this sensor?
The config file is very simple:
homeassistant: true
permit_join: true
mqtt:
base_topic: zigbee2mqtt
server: mqtt://localhost:1883
serial:
port: /dev/ttyACM0
devices:
‘0xa4c1384f303fa952’:
friendly_name: ‘0xa4c1384f303fa952’
‘0x847127fffeea2f89’:
friendly_name: ‘0x847127fffeea2f89’
frontend: true

Should there be more info in the config file, perhaps?

Thanks

What do you see in the z2m UI in relation to this device? What do you see in the ha UI?

Well, there is a simple user interface in the zigbeeToMqtt showing me the device as normal. And I see under “Exposes” that there is no relevant data coming in. I have no ha (home assistant?) UI. I’m using Mosquitto broker to read data or a Java program that connects to the broker. Works ok for the other sensors I have. But the motion sensor is silent, just blinking to me, in red. Have a feeling that the sensor need to be kicked somewhere, just don’t know how. Or that my config file for zigbee needs some more parameters.

If you aren’t using ha, then this isn’t really the place for support. Try the support channels listed in zigbee2mqtt.io

But also see here Getting started | Zigbee2MQTT

I don’t see your network key, and your configuration is not properly indented.

Ok, I’ll try zigbee2mqtt support and forum. Thank you for the interest.
