Motion Sensor Updates #9

Open jaket91-1 opened 4 years ago

jaket91-1 commented 4 years ago

Firstly thanks so much for this plugin, it's great! I can see that the motion sensors are presented to Homekit through Homebridge along with the door contacts, but whilst the door contacts do reflect the door being open/closed, my motion sensors never update to reflect there being motion. Is this a known issue or is something not working right? Thanks again

I’ve used this plugin for a couple of years now, and have never seen Motion Sensors through Homebridge. Not sure how you’ve configured it?

Hi,

Oops, yes - looks like I’ve raised an issue on the wrong plugin, should have actually been yalesyncalarm, apologies. I literally just installed yalesyncalarm as per the instructions and it walked me through adding each of the motion sensors and contacts as accessories.

From: https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-yalesyncalarm

“ Features Exposes the alarm system as a Home.app security system. You can set it to "Home", "Away", "Night" and "Off" modes. Yale alarms only have 3 modes. So both "Home" and "Night" will "part-arm" the system. Contact and motion sensors are exposed in Home.app “

Ah! Cool! Hadn’t realised someone had managed to expose the sensors! I’ve installed it, and as you say, I’m also not getting motion sensor alerts, only door contact ones.
