Motion sensors connected via JA-116H sometimes yield DEVICE_PACKET_TYPE_BATTERY packets

[leo-b]

My (non-bus) motion sensors that are connected via JA-116H yield packets of type DEVICE_PACKET_TYPE_BATTERY when motion is detected:

2022-07-05 08:54:29 ERROR (ThreadPoolExecutor-2_0) [custom_components.jablotron100] Unknown state packet (device 26): 5508a4d28006d0d6a838 022-07-05 08:54:38 ERROR (ThreadPoolExecutor-2_0) [custom_components.jablotron100] Unknown state packet (device 24): 5508a4ca000660d72839 2022-07-05 08:54:40 ERROR (ThreadPoolExecutor-2_0) [custom_components.jablotron100] Unknown state packet (device 25): 5508a4cc400680d74839

However, the state change is correctly registered by home assistant:

Analyzing the packets shows that the error is thrown here because the packet type is DEVICE_PACKET_TYPE_BATTERY:

/opt/homeassistant/bin/python3.9
>>> from jablotron100 import jablotron, const
>>> import binascii
>>> sh= '5508a4c8000640d70839'
>>> sb = binascii.unhexlify(sh)
>>> jablotron.Jablotron._convert_jablotron_device_state_to_state(sb, 24)
'on'
>>> jablotron.Jablotron._bytes_to_binary(sb[2:3])                       
'10100100'
>>> packet_state_binary = _
>>> jablotron.Jablotron.binary_to_int(packet_state_binary[5:])
4
>>> packet_type = _
>>> packet_type == const.DEVICE_PACKET_TYPE_BATTERY
True

I’m sorry I don’t understand.

Sorry. I accidently submitted the issue while still typing the description. :-) I have now updated the text.

[kukulich]

Do the sensors have battery or not?

[leo-b]

No. They are old-style wired IR sensors with 12V power and NO/NC contacts. Power and signal lines are connected to this expansion card https://www.jablotron.com/underwood/download/pdf/en/JA-116H.pdf

@leo-b Can you enable the debug and sabotage the device 24? You can try to open it or something similar. It should log packets that may help.

Should be resolved in https://github.com/kukulich/home-assistant-jablotron100/releases/tag/3.14.0

Confirmed. Thanks!
