Z-Wave Motion Sensor Stuck On

Featured Replies

Posted

I have a Z-wave outdoor motion sensor that seems to be stuck on.  I tried doing a query in the Admin Console but nothing changes.  Also the top level display for sensor that using shows the battery level shows nothing.  Battery dead?  See screen shot.

Does the motion sensor blink when you walk by it

Hey,

I have 6 Aeotec Multi Sensor 6.  2 of them lock up on average 2 times a year.  Not critical devices and are plugged into the wall using USB cube.  Only turns on the garage lights when activated, but also shuts them off.  Doesn't shut them off when it's locked up though.  I have 2 Band-Aids for that though:

1) To reset the device, I would cycle power on the device.  Need to wait at least 15 minutes before powering it back on.  This fixes it 'till the next time.  This can usually also be accomplished by disabling/enabling the device with a 15 minute time difference like cycling power method.  Better though because you can do this remotely.

2)  It seems the Motion Sensor Node is the part of the sensor that locks up and the "Status" section of the sensor follows the motion sensor, but rather doesn't lock up when the motion part locks up.  So by using the "Status" section of the device instead of the Motion Sensor Node, fixes the problem at least until I can reset it.

I still use both of them, but use programs to make sure I don't use the nodes that lock up (Motion Sensor Node).  

Oh yea, I also use a few "malfunction" programs to let me know that they locked up.

Hope this can help.
