Kentinada Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I was getting a low battery indicator on a motion sensor which didn’t surprise me since the motion sensor is outdoors and the battery is a year old. I changed the battery but I’m still getting the Low Battery alert. How do I reset that? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment
markv58 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 It will reset on its own, give it time to send a heartbeat, could be several hours. Link to comment

The original MS doesn't have a heartbeat. and the lowBatt sgnal is only sent once. I have seen reports to use a query of the MS in an ISY program to clear that past indication. ISY only indicates the last thing it was told by the device. Link to comment
Kentinada Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 It's the original MS. And I replaced it a couple days ago and am still getting the occasional low battery message from a program I have running that looks for the low battery indicator. Link to comment

Query the low battery node, that should reset it. Link to comment

From what I have heard (somewhere ), the manual query doesn't do it. I don't know why there there would be (or could be) a difference between program Queries and manual queries. The MS doesn't respond to manual queries anyway. Of course putting it into linking mode may help. Link to comment
jca001 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 You select the Low Battery node and then query. It does not really try to query the MS, it just updates the status to OFF. Link to comment
Kentinada Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 OK I just did that and it went from ON to OFF. Hopefully that clears it up. Thanks! Link to comment
