AEOTec Multisensor 6


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello, I recently added the Z-wave module to my ISY Device. With z-wave added, I put the Aeotec Multi-sensor on my home automation system. It's working and provides temperature as well as other measurements. I set up a program to email me if the temperature hit a specific point. However, it's not doing that. It shows the temperature is below my threshold (69' F) in the dashboard, but no notifications.

Baby Room Low Temp - [ID 0014][Parent 0001]

If
        Status  'ZW 004 Baby Multilevel Sensor' <= 69° F
 
Then


        Send Notification to 'Jason's Cell' content 'Baby Room Low Temp'
 
Else
   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
 

Any advice?

Are you sure your email is properly configured. If you highlight the email and click on test do you get a test email?

Also make sure there are no blank fields in your email notification. both the subject field and the body of the email bust be populated

Also keep in mind that if the multisensor is battery operated it only updates on a time schedule, not when the temperature changes.

Yes, the test works. I've had it setup for weeks, no alerts. However, I had nothing in the body. I just added body content as well, so hopefully that will fix it. Whats the frequency it runs? Hourly?

Are you seeing the temp change in the display?  Are the updates being sent in F and not C?  My ZWave multi sensor is flakey to say the least.  Sometimes the motion updates almost instantly and other times it can take 30 seconds or so for it to turn on the lights. 

Make another program that checks ambient light and try running that with lights off and on to see if you get notifications?

 I'm not sure what the update interval is but I think it's hourly or longer to prolong battery life. It should be listed in the manual.

If you're running from AC power you can change the update interval, via the configuration options, to update more frequently.
