Ir Sensor

[lupinve]

hi, i'm testing again Vimar IR sensor for check presence of someone on the room.
https://www.vimar.com/en/int/catalog/product/index/code/20485

at the moment it is not working correctly because once the sensor is detected the presence of someone is always on

i have found this playod when i try of on/off the sensor:

I guess the iR Sensor is listed as a normal light switch currently in HA?
If you trigger the sensor from the web server, does it automatically go back to the "off" state?

[lupinve]

Yes, in HA is like a normal light In the web server the sensor goes ON at the first detection but then always stays ON . could it be a problem of sensor detection by the web server? Thanks Matteo Il sab 24 ott 2020, 04:51 Andi <[email protected]> ha scritto:

Is this the normal behavior on the web server? So that it stays on?
Maybe thss device has some extra attributes that I do not handle at the moment. I'll add some debug code as soon as I have time.

[lupinve]

It's not a correct behavior , in the web server the sensor should turn off if it does not detect movement

@lupinve : I added some debugging code for entities having " IR " in it's names. please set your logging settings to debug and let me know the outcome.

see: https://github.com/h4de5/home-assistant-vimar#troubleshooting

besides of this - if there are no new attributes, then I am afraid I can't fix this using the integration. you may need to setup an automation that resets the state to off as soon as it detects a turn on. The problem will be, that the integration may not read out any short interactions with the motion sensor - because it does only read out states every 6-8 seconds. so any movement that is shorter than this, may be overseen.

this is one of the reasons why I do not really want to tap into the SAI/alarm systems thing at the moment.

hi,
this is my logging

Thanks

As i thought. It just has an on/off state. As i said, i am afraid i can't fix that :(
Try out an automation that unsets the switch as soon as it is activated.

[lupinve]

Ok thanks, i will try out an automation

Hi, the ir switch works fine with turn off automatically.

if it can help you with the integration, I will pass you another type of interface that I used before between vimar and HA.
