Aeotec Sensor Finding/Setting Parameters

Featured Replies

Posted

Hi -

I have the Aeotec sensor working as expected on my EISY to trigger events based on temperature. I would like to make changes to the parameters of the device and found this manual that describes parameters and values. For example, I have no need for LUX or Motion sensors and I'd like to shut them off to save battery life. 

One the EISY, I see a place to change these parameters but having two problems using it (see image1.jpg).

  • I am having trouble locating a manual with all the parameters. I found the parameter for a similar device from Aeotec (https://www.benext.eu/static/manual/aeotec/multisensor-6-ZW100-C.pdf), but my device is a 3-way sensor (TriSensor (ZWA005).
  • Not sure how to push to device.  I figured this out, use HW button on device to wake and then set Wake-Up to Keep Awake on console.
  • When I set the device to Wake and choose "Set Parameters", I see the comms in the event window, but status of Motion Detector doesn't change. Suspect I'm using wrong parameter or value.

P.S., I'm creating two separate posts for two issues to keep things organized.   Second problem (program logic issue) solved.

P.S.2, I added screenshot of the manual I found and linked above.

That explains that. :-)

I will look for instructions from the Aeotec side.  You don’t happen to know how those parameters are set from within the device, do you? They mention. The “configuration command class” but I’m not sure how that is implemented.  

Here's an example If you want to partially disable the light sensor (see attached screen shot example)Screenshot2025-03-02154729.thumb.jpg.98f64e64880f3072a6abf161619e3b5d.jpg:

Put the sensor into the lnking mode

In your EISY on the tri-sensor device window:

Set parameter number to 24 

Set parameter value to 32767

Set byte size to 2

Then click on set configuration

 

I use the Zooz temperature and humidity sensors. They're small and compatible with the EISY
