Had some little problems but looks like i’m getting there, thanks!
Edit: I try to add it as a device in HA but i get the error: Unable to connect to the ESPHome device. Please verify that the device’s YAML configuration contains an api section.
I changed the encryption key to one generated by the ESP Home website.
I can ga to the ‘website’ of the LD2450 and can see al the data
Edit 2: Didn’t do anything but now it’s working.
I am receiving fluctuating data. For example, Target 1 y constantly fluctuates from 243 mm to -28.123 mm and then back to 1022 mm. The same thing happens with Target 1 speed, which goes from -2.00 ms to 302 ms, for example.
On the map, I occasionally see a zone light up or target 1 around 0 mm, which is the location of the sensor.
In the HLink app, I do see 1 or 2 targets in the space as expected.
What could be causing this?
If i set the axis below zero i can see person 1 (sensor?) and person 2 and 3…
I also noticed this. The Apollo R PRO-1 uses the LD2450 and they mount it “upside down” if this manual is to believed. Thinking of flipping all of mine over and seeing if it otherwise affects usability.
Hi all,
I just dug up an LD2450 I had laying around and never used. What’s the latest/best esphome config to everyone is using for it?
I have been messing around with a couple of the LD2450 sensors for the better part of a week now. The issue that I am having is with ZONEs. I have flash a probably 5 or 6 different yamls none of which give me the desired result. Which is occupancy of zones. The latest yaml that I tried is straight off the esphome webpage. I can setup zone in the HLK Radar Tool app on my phone. Those numbers are being transferred over into HA. However my big issue is that when I go to setup an automation. Can setup an automation for presence detection but NOT in any particular zone. Is there an easy way to resolve this? My yaml is below.

Hi, you need to do that via entity > numeric_state; you can’t select the zones through the device.
alias: Presence Whatever
description: ""
triggers:
- trigger: state
entity_id:
- sensor.presence_01_zone_1_all_target_count
for:
hours: 0
minutes: 0
seconds: 2
conditions: []
actions:
- if:
- condition: numeric_state
entity_id: sensor.presence_01_zone_1_all_target_count
above: 0
then:
- action: light.turn_on
metadata: {}
target:
device_id: ....
data:
transition: 1
else:
- action: light.turn_off
metadata: {}
target:
device_id: ....
data:
transition: 1
mode: single
I hope that helps.
Sort of but where do I add entities. I am assuming I need to go into the HA config?
