Thanks Tom,

I can’t get the binary sensor to change from basic set. OpenZ-Wave log reports
‘Invalid Index Set on ValueList
… Warning, ValueList returned a NULL value for GetValueListSelection: Current power mode’.
I tried it on an off binary sensor & one on.

Aeotec Multisensor 6 has 9 ‘entities’:

Binary on/off. Basic set or binary sensor report
Alarm level. 0 (zero)
Alarm type 0
Burglar. 0,3,8
Luminance. 000000.0
Humidity. 00.0
Source node Id 0
Temperature. 00.0
Ultraviolet. 0.0

From other posts, Alarm Type, Alarm Level and Source node id do nothing - they are always zero value.

Merry Christmas!

So you saw the state of the binary sensor change from off to on & back when you trigger/untrigger the device?

A Xmas miracle! The binary sensor report stuck overnight. It works now.

There is a disconnect sometimes however as the burglar sensor correctly reports movement but the binary sensor doesn’t go to ‘on’ from ‘off’.

Thanks Tom & Finity.
