Monoprice Z-Wave PIR Motion Sensor not updating Node Configuration

Configuration Z-Wave
1

Hey Everyone,

I need some help with the Monoprice Z-Wave PIR Motion sensor 10769 (Vision ZP3102), trying to update the Sensitivity and Re-Trigger Wait Time using the Node Configuration Options. Each time I save it seems to go back to default values. I read somewhere about the sensor needing to be awake, but I switch the motion sensor state to on and that did not work either. I also tried changing the values in the zwcfg_0xcf38d5e4.xml file and no luck either. The logs show no errors. Any ideas?

Logs:

Triggering the motion sensor does not wake up the device. Check the device’s user manual for the proper wake up procedure. For example, this version of the ZP3012 says you’re supposed to remove the back cover. Another version says remove the front cover. Sometimes you have to press a button.

Hey Freshcoast,

Thank you for the tip, I tried it last night and it worked. You were correct, you have to take off the back cover. FYI for anyone else you have a limited time to send the command code to the device once you take off the back cover also It took a couple of times. I don’t know why but it did.

Thanks again

David

It’s usually easier if you set the value first, then wake it up the device. While the device is sleeping, OZW will queue up and commands, and once it wakes it will send all the queued commands.

Thanks I will try that, I still need to make one more sensitive.

What value would I use to set re-triggering time of 15 min? Currently, the motion entity has a byte re-trigger value of 3. Would it be 900-256 = 644? I am confused.

You would set it to 15.
