adding the line - uart.write: “saveConfig” , is when it fails
If I use it like bellow, works, and visiting the page of the esp, the value changes, but I think it actually writes the value, is just for show.

- platform: template

set_action:

- uart.write: !lambda int cm = (int)ceil(x / 15.0);
std::string cms = "detRangeCfg -1 0 " + to_string(cm);
return std::vector<unsigned char>(cms.begin(), cms.end());
- delay: 1s
- switch.turn_on: mmwave_sensor
removing the line bellow, no error.
- uart.write: "saveCfg 0x45670123 0xCDEF89AB 0x956128C6 0xDF54AC89"
Pretty old code. Without saving the changes, a reboot of the mmWave will revert to saved values.
Try, - uart.write: "saveConfig"
with the - uart.write: “saveConfig” it doesnt boot. I did found anothe code, I guess I have ti adapt it to mine

You are the only report of this symptom, suspect you have a wonky ESP('s).
Without saving the setting the sensor will revert on any sensor reboot. Dunno why you are re-inventing the wheel.
i, m not trying to reinvent the wheel, just understand why the ESP8266 will stop working after few flashes. Like I said, with a new esp8266 works fine, until eventually dies again. I already have 2 boards, with the same problem
Have you tried two ESP32’s? Have you tried two different brand of ESP8266’s? Are the ones you have from the same manufacturing batch? Have you reverted to an ESPHome version before recent changes to saving PSRAM? Have you tried different power supplies?
Removing saveConfig is not the end solution here. It is mandatory to ensure the setting the “ESP tells you is in use” is the “setting the sensor has saved which ensures it is actually in use.”
esp32 works fine, I have few boards, and no problem in any, the esp8266 I tries D1 mini V4 usb c, d1 mini v3 usb C and a regular d1 mini mini usb. On the regular one I removed the shield and it have a ESP8266EX, some sort of bios chip, a crystal, few resistors, and few capacitors, cant see any branding. They from Ali express, from different sellers. maybe I should get better boards.
I can only vouch for running this on ESP32’s so your mileage will definitely vary.
Nice to read that you got it to work. But it is not clear to me how. You write “switched off the LED” like it’s obvious but how did you switch it off?
(I have my TX → RX and RX → TX right)
Thank you. Got it working. changing the logger to level: none, works, with all the numbers and sensors. If the logger is none will the uart values are still written to the 8266?
I see it now, ha.

UART0.
Where have u seen discussion that the upcoming Aqara is using a sensor from Acconeer? About the angel, It is 65 in horizontal and 53 in vertical. So if it is an a121, then it might be 2 sensors?
That 3d printed case looks like exactly the kind of thing I’m looking for. Would you be willing to share the source for it?
It has a few issues I was going to fix but never got around to it as I designed a new one with different parts instead. Do you want to install it in the wall? It’s a tight fit to get it acually installed is the main issue but it does work. I uploaded the files here: Printables

Hello,
I have a seeedstudio Human Static Presence Module Lite ( MR24HPC1 ) and was trying to use this code but i cannot compile it because i’m missing the radar.h library, can you help me on where to find this ?
Thank you in advance.
This might have what you need:
Has anyone tried to add a PIR sensor to the mmwave sensor while using the seeed xaio esp32-C3? I programmed one in and it works great. . . .only everything else quite working. Any thoughts? The board isn’t programmed as the correct board, but the pinouts work exactly as I hooked it up and point to the correct pins. I got most of the code from here: XIAO ESP32C3 accesses Home Assistant via ESPHome service | Seeed Studio Wiki . The binary sensor code I got from here: GPIO Binary Sensor — ESPHome . Before I input the Binary Sensor code and got the PIR sensor working all other mmwave sensor info worked in Home Assistant. Since adding the Binary Sensor, none of it works and shows as Unavailable. My yaml code below:
