  1. Yes, it is a sectional garage door and I have it mounted to the back of the top panel. The door is currently closed and it is reporting nothing. Neither open or closed. Battery is 27%, which is surprising as the sensor is only 30 days new.
  2. I am trying out a Zooz tilt sensor to determine if a garage door is open or not. It appears to be working part of the time. In particular, it works when the door is open or closed for a longer period of time. But if the door is opened (it reports properly) and then shut within a few minutes, the sensor continues to show open. I think I have the settings correct, but who knows. I find the Zooz documentation, particularly as it relates to use within the Eisy rather lacking.

    Looks like that is the problem. I understand the issue but seems like the email provider could allow specified exceptions. A text is usually a better notification process than email.

    That got me most of the way there. Was it the time out change 1000-8000 or the FROM? I thought the FROM was optional. The email notification worked. I included phone#@vtext.com and received a permanent error message in my email for that. What works for text message?

    I've done all of that, multiple times. Using both Default checked and inputting the email settings. When testing, I get an SMTP error code 1 or 18 depending on the settings.

    I have Notifications Plug-in. I get notifications on UD Mobile. But how do I send a message (email and/or text) from the UDI interface? I don't see anywhere where I can select use Notifications.

    Converted over to the Eisy. My notification email and text are gone. I use an Exchange account, a comcast email account and xFinity for phone. I can't figure out how to get any of it to test working. I tried the comcast with the following settings: smtp.comcast.net, MyUserName, MyPassword, Ports 995, 587, 465 I think. TLS on and off. Xfinity is not listed in the text message list. Tried the Comcast...nothing. Not sure what to do next.
  8. Nice of them to give one so much time. Sounds like it is going to have to go up and down a few times to get things adjusted. I was thinking of putting a temp sensor in my attic. If I have to retrieve it to reset something, that now seems like a bad plan.
  9. Which brings up the question, exactly what is linking mode? Do I need to take it down, remove the back and use that back button? If so, pretty poor design.
  10. Still figuring it out. Zooz says its range is 30 feet. I'm seeing motion at closer to 40 feet. That will be a problem for me if I can't adjust the angle or sensitivity enough to tone it down. I have it pointed all the way down. Might have to build a wedge mount. I wish it had a range adjustment. Tried setting some parameters but can't tell if they are getting reset. I have the Event Viewer on and when I query a parameter, I see the get, but not a result. Same with sending a parameter. See a send, but not sure it is taking it. I like the design and quality. Not many outdoor motion detectors that are quality. I tried the Insteon, which is probably indoors, but the mounting on that thing looks like it was designed by a five-year-old.
  11. In the interest of full disclosure, I figured out the problem and I sincerely hope my mea culpa helps someone else. It helps everything work better if you put the Zwave antenna on the Zwave side of the Eisy ZMatter Add-on. This was hard to write.
  12. Here is what I have: An Eisy, the ZMatter Board and the ZSE70. I do not have a Zwave hub. I thought that is what the ZMatter Board would do (mesh network hub). Maybe I have that wrong. If all I need to add is the ZAC38 to make it work, I'm fine. Frankly, I'm confused why there is not an asterisk with the ZMatter Board page that indicates the LR is non-functional as part of an Eisy system. The distance from the Eisy to the motion sensor will be less than 30 feet and one wall. Otherwise, it maybe makes sense to return the UD device and maybe work on a different solution. If that is the option, I need to know who makes a good quality outdoor motion sensor that will work with the Eisy. I'm just trying to figure out the best thing to do without dropping money chasing something that does not work.
  13. Says that page does not exist when I click on it. If I were to add the below: Zooz 800 Series Z-Wave Plus Range Extender and Signal Repeater ZAC38 Would that make the system work. Eisy - ZMatter Board - Motion Sensor? Not sure I understand how the Repeater works with the Eisy but the sensor will not.
  14. Our Long Range (LR) Certified Z-Wave+ ZMatter USB is the answer! Am I to understand that the LR Certified USB does long range but the Eisy I am plugging it into does not? Isn't that a little misleading?
  15. I've been running Insteon devices for years with an Isy and now Eisy. All I want to do is add a motion detector to the front of my garage. Tried the Insteon Product. Junk at best. Needs to be battery as no power available. I invested in the Eisy Zwave device, says it supports long range. I invested in a Zooz ZSE70. I got it to connect once, but I'm not sure it was all there and not sure it actually was talking. Even in the same room it won't recognize the motion detector. I'm perfectly willing to toss the Zooz and send back the Zwave device if someone has a working solution to my effort. Any help appreciated. The Eisy and Zwave add-on were all purchased and installed in the last few weeks.
