burakk Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 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? Burak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, the old way of sticking your tongue on the 9 volt battery technique indicated battery is full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Kohanim Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hi Burak, I think this is related to your post where the PLM does not hear events, right?

With kind regards, Michel 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...

Brian H Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burakk Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 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... Burak Hi Burak, I think this is related to your post where the PLM does not hear events, right?
