I’m not sure what to say, other than the motion sensor is working for me. It’s the Burgular
sensor that reports motion, and it reports in an on/off fashion. From what I gather, a value of 0
means no motion, and a value of anything else means motion. For me, it seems that the burglar
sensor sets to a value of 8
when motion is detected, though I’m not sure why it changes to 8. I figured it would be a 0
for no motion, and 1
for motion, but whatever.
So I just created a sensor that looks like this:
- platform: template
sensors:
kitchen_motion:
friendly_name: 'Motion Detected?'
value_template: >-
{%- if is_state("sensor.multisensor_kitchen_burglar_8", "0") -%}
No
{%- else -%}
Yes
{%- endif -%}
And all works as expected. Again, I am using open zwave control panel and I see the value hop from 0 to 8 when motion is detected, and my sensor has been working great for at least a week now.
