I purchased my ISY a few months ago and am still pretty green.  Currently my network consists of a couple of dimmers and a Schlage lock.

I'd like to get a multi-sensor to monitor the temperatures at night in my son's room and was drawn to the Fibaro product.  Is this product compatible with the z-wave ISY?

 

The Fibaro has 4 functions - temperature, motion, light, and acceleration.  I'd probably only be interested in using the first 3 for this project.  If anyone can confirm or deny that the ISY can read these functions, that'd be appreciated.  Or if there's a way I can verify device compatibility on my own (short of buying and trying), I'm all ears.

 

Additionally, if there's a better sensor (Aeon Labs?) or solution out there, I'm open to suggestions.

 

Thanks!

I don't have the Fibaro motion sensor and am interested in hearing how this is working with ISY.

 

But I do have a Fibaro door/window sensor and am having some problems. Hopefully the Fibaro motion sensor is a newer design and works better than the door sensor. The problem I'm currently investigating is that it never wakes up so Heal Z-Wave Network and Repair Links never have a chance to run on the sensor. Apparently it's going to wake up about 6 months from now if the following installation log entries are correct:

Anyway, two Z-Wave temperature/humidity devices I have and would recommend are:

 

1. Aeotec Multisensor 6 ZW100-A: motion, temperature, humidity, light, UV, vibration. Only limitation to be aware for you is when it's battery-powered temperature/humidity will be reported once per hour - if USB-powered it can report as often as you want.

 

2. Everspring ST814 Temperature/Humidity Sensor. Doesn't have motion and light and is larger than the Aeotec Multisensor 6 but will report temperature and humidity as often as you want on battery power.

Hi Casey,

 

It should work. This said, it's best to wait for our multi-channel support.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

The fibaro motion sensor does work with the ISY. The ISY is not able to configure all of it's configurable options but the basic control is there. 

Have you seen the Aeon MultiSensor 6? I am pretty sure its compatible with ISY right now.
