Xiaomi Human / Body / Motion Sensor - Timeout

Configuration

thank you for the solution, but I’m getting the following error. the hassapi module, is it something that is exclusive to hassio\supervisor? I’m running HA as docker without supervisor component,

This is an AppDaemon app that is available in HACS. It is not a HA integration or custom component and can not be loaded as such.

See https://hacs.xyz/ and https://appdaemon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/INSTALL.html to install AppDaemon. Then you can install this app from the HA Community Store.

Looking to buy some of these and do the hardware mod. Do they work with HA 0.114.4 and ZHA?

I plan on just doing a Node-Red flow to set the state of the sensor from on to off in order to allow the sensor to update the state again after 5 seconds.

413

Yes, they do. I’m using ZHA with a RaspBee II ZigBee shield: No issues

Hi All,

I have set up Appdaemon 4 and set up appdaemon_aqara_motion_sensors integration.
Working with ZHA and tasmotized Sonoff ZigBee bridge.
Sensor is till on for 2 minutes.
Anyone having this working?
Am I missing something?

Thanks.

415

so there’s no way to fix the initial python script?

416

@syssi Is there going to be an update on this. I am still on 0.111 just for this.

417

Hi all,

what is the best way to reset the value to occupancy = no with hassio and node red? i dont find a good solution for me, can you give me a description of the solution?

Thank you

best regards

Mathias

do I have to insert the sd card to my pc to do this ? I have the sd card to my rpi3 and used file editor to find this folder but i couldnt find it

419

I don’t think you’ll be able to do this from the SD card. How did you install Home Assistant? Are you using HassIO?

420

I am using raspberry pi and with etcher i installed home assistant. but i dont understand where or how to find binary_seneor/xiaomi.py

421

@Ody - It certainly sounds like you’re using HassIO/HassOS/Home Assistant OS or maybe it’s just called “Home Assistant” nowadays (too many names for the same thing :frowning:). Unfortunately I’ve never used that particular installation method myself and so I’m not sure how you’d go about accessing the application files.

This said, this page might help you: https://www.home-assistant.io/hassio/haos_common_tasks/

Failing that, hopefully someone else that reads this can help.

Hello everyone,

I have read the different solutions proposed, but if I understand correctly none is stable until now.

Am I right ? Or can I try one of the proposed solutions?

Thx

423

does this work (newest update of HA) 2020_12_1

424

Yes it does
To be clear this is all that I’m doing.
1- Hardware modification
2- Automation script

426

which automation script are you referring to?

427

Yep it still works perfectly for me. The sensors are much faster at clearing after being triggered

428

which automation script are you referring to?

alias: 'Xiaomi Aqara Motion Sensors duration fix'
trigger:
  - platform: homeassistant
    event: start
action:
  - service: deconz.configure
    data:
      entity: binary_sensor.aqara_motion1
      field: "/config"
      data: {"duration": 5}
  - service: deconz.configure
    data:
      entity: binary_sensor.aqara_motion2
      field: "/config"
      data: {"duration": 5}

HW mode and the above automation script works for all my aqara motion sensors.
(Latest HA on Raspberry 3B. Conbee II latest FW)
Unfortunately light sensor seems to update only when motion is triggered. Adding sensor.lightlevel to the script doesn’t help.
What is your experience with light sensor? Any solution to get light level more frequently ?

430

Sorry, I don’t bother using light sensor, I don’t have a need, but if anyone knows, I’d love to know in case in the future I find a need.
