Motion Sensor II is not sensing occupancy

Featured Replies

Posted

I just added an Insteon Motion Sensor II to my home -- it is managed by ISY 994i.  The motion sensor is supposed to turn on the lights when there is motion and after 30 seconds of timeout, it is supposed to turn off the lights in a room.  The light turns on upon motion in the room.  However, the light turns off in 30 seconds even though the room is occupied and there is motion.  Insteon manual suggests to set the motion sensor in "Occupancy mode" using Insteon hub.  I don't use Insteon hub.  My ISY admin console does not have this setting for occupancy mode.  How can I have the motion sensor keep the lights on when the room is occupied.

1. What version of ISY are you using? The "full" features of the MSII are only available with ISY 5.x

2. Most of us use the Motion Sensors to trigger lights-On but then have ISY control lights off. Please post the program(s) that you are using with your MS.

3. Please see this thread as some of the later discussions may relate to what you are seeing:
