Issue with Hue Motion Sensor and Deconz Zigbee Stick in ZHA – Long “No Motion” Detection Time

[DieserSven]

Hi everyone,

I’m using a Philips Hue Motion Sensor with a Deconz Zigbee Stick and ZHA in Home Assistant. Motion detection works very quickly, but there’s a problem when it comes to detecting “no motion.” Even after I leave the room, it can take up to 5 minutes before the sensor reports no movement.

Is this a known issue? Is there any way to reduce the delay? I would appreciate any insights or possible workarounds!

Thanks in advance!

I’ve never tried this, but you could see if it works…

Go to the device page, click the three dots next to “Reconfigure”, and “Manage Zigbee Device”

Select the Occupancy Sensing cluster

Select the pir_o_to_u_delay attribute

You should be able to enter a new value in seconds and save it by clicking on Write Attribute. Then restart HA.
