Motion Sensor stops sensing

I have a 2420M motion sensor, which for some reason the sensor stops working after a day or so. I changed the battery, and moved it closer to an access point to test, same results. If I remove the battery, and leave it out for a few minutes, then reinstall it, the sensor works for some time...

 

Any ideas as to why?

What is the voltage on the battery you remove?

Don't really know, twice I replaced with new battery... I'll get a voltmeter and check...

 

That said, the old way of sticking your tongue on the 9 volt battery technique indicated battery is full :D

Hi Burak,

 

I think this is related to your post where the PLM does not hear events, right?

 

With kind regards,

Michel

My thought was the battery was being drained. But I guess that's not the case.

Michel,

 

I doubt it because this problem actually started before the PLM problem, however I am not able confirm this until I get the PLM back online...

What firmware version is on the sticker inside the battery compartment?

I saw on the Smarthome Forum someone got a replacement with 1.1, Mine are 1.0Bs. Though no data on what was changed.

I'll check tonight.

After changing the PLM, and moving the MS to a test location, the unit has not repeated the problems I previously had. I'll move the unit to original location tonight to see if it happens again...
