Problem with ZW100 MultiSensor 6

Hello

I am having some problems with the Aeotec ZW100 MultiSensor 6
It’s added normal to my z-wave network (Z-Stick Gen5) together with a nano dimmer and a wallmote that are all working fine.
The MultiSensor seams to be working but i can’t get the motion sensing to work, i have tried basic set and binary sensor report.
Either way the problem is all the same, in home assistant the burglar sensor constantly changes between 0 and 8 (binary sensor on and off) several times per minute even when no one is in the room.
I have tried to change
Other values like temperature and light seams normal to me.
am i missing something here, does it have to be added securely? or is there som other setting i need to change

Running hassio 0.77.3 on a raspberry pi 3

Same problem here, only humidity, UV, temp and lux give me values in hassio 0.76.2.

Alarm level/type has always been 0 and Burglar has never changed from 3

Would be nice to get the motion detection working since I’ve got my sensor aimed at my entrance-door

Mine was switching from 0 and 8 several times per minute.
Must have been a faulty unit, got a replacement sensor and not it’s working like a charm.

Looks like i was celebrating to soon.

Here it started acting strange again, triggering on motion all the time even when the room is empty.

But now it’s back to normal again, triggering only when some one enters the room.
Any one els having this kind of behaviour?

Did you add in secure mode?

have you solved the problem? I also have this problem with my multisensor 6…

You need to use the binary sensor to detect motion. The burglar sensor detects tampering I think. Also, make sure the firmware is up to date.

Unfortunately no, since I didn’t buy the sensor to use it as an alarm I haven’t put much effort into it, sorry

The burglar sensor detects both tampering and motion. I have used mine without changing to binary for almost 2 years now. Value 3 is for tampering and 8 for motion.

But the last 3-4 days after a restart of hass.io I have trouble making one of them to work. The one is reporting fine but the other one is almost like is dead. I have already remove the node and added again but it didn’t help. Except having problem with the one of the multisensors, it seems that z-wave is a little bit unstable for me the last month. It could be the hass.io but it could be also that the sensor that is not working properly that is causing problems in my z-wave network. Any ideas?
