4 in 1 parameter for adjusting reporting time

Hi @kkossev - wondering if you got further with adding this reporting time parameter to your 4 in 1 driver? I have the sensor in my bathroom. I’d like to turn on real time reporting when it is triggered my motion. Then I’ll use the humidity reading to turn on and off the fan when someone has a shower. Right now temp/humidity/Lum only update every 5 minutes which is too slow for this application…

Cheers,
Rob

Hi Rob,

I started working on the Tiya 4-in-1 reporting time period and the good news is that I managed to configure it to report every 10 seconds! :champagne:

The next steps for T/H reporting are 1 minute, 2, minutes, etc..

Hope to have the time to finish a new version ready for testing in the next few days.

Fantastic stuff! Interesting as the manual says you can only configure it in 5 min intervals but if you set it to 0 then it’s “real time”. Look forward to trying out your new code and thanks for all your efforts!

Wondering if reporting time parameter is scheduled to make it into the next version of your driver Krassimir?

I will try this evening, there were too many other interesting, but detracting activities lately .. : (

Hi @robevansaus ,

You can try "Tuya Multi Sensor 4 In 1" version 1.3.2 ( update from the dev. branch link ).

The default setting is 5 minutes reporting interval.

Hi @kkossev - this works well. It would be good to be able to change the reporting time parameter from a rule so I could alter it to the 10 second interval only when presence is detected.

Cheers,
Rob

Thank you for the report, Rob!

Sure, I will add the reporting time as a dynamically changeable parameter in the next driver update.

Hi Rob,

The dynamic change of the 4-in-1 Tuya reporting time was added into the latest driver version, can you try it?

Will update and try it out. Thanks!

Hi @kkossev - I installed the latest driver and I see the reportingTime4in1 parameter under SetPar. Question - do you know how to set this new parameter from a rule? I tried to use a custom action for the Motion sensor device but I’m not sure I can set the value as SetPar has multiple different attributes and the Rule only appears to let me set a value or String for SetPar. So I can set SetPar to “reportingTime4in1” but I can’t seem to set the value of that. Seems like I would be able set it it if it was on its own as an attribute rather than under SetPar?

Here’s the warning log of me trying to set it from a rule to 5 minute updates:
[warn]/logs#)EnsuiteMulti setPar: parameter reportingTime4in1,5 must be one of these : [--- Select ---, reportingTime4in1, radarSensitivity, detectionDelay, fadingTime, minimumDistance, maximumDistance]

Rob

You need to define 2 parameters of a type String - the first one is the parameter to change (reportingTime4in1) and the second one is the reporting interval as a minutes number (or 0 for 10 seconds period)

In the logs :

'....setting ...' means the RM5 command was validated and has been sent to the device.

The second log line : 'reporting time interval is 7 minutes' is the acknowledgment received from the device itself.

Fantasic. Thanks for the help. I’ll give that a go.

Cheers,
Rob

@kkossev works great! Thanks again!
