Aqara FP1 and P1 motion sensors

Interestingly, some of my RTCGQ11LM are reporting the battery regularly, but some of them - not!
Thank you for the report, will check it.

  1. Aqara kitchen sensor (RTCGQ11LM) seems to have stopped working last night; powerSource reading unknown (was reading battery previously), and battery percentage not available since pairing.

Summary



Thanks

I think that the issue with the Aqara/ kitchen sensor is a typical scenario where an old-generation Aqara (Xiaomi) sensor falls off the Zigbee network and does not automatically reconnect.

Pair it again to HE, but do it on-place, where the motion sensor final position will be. Then check the ZIgbee routing table 10 minutes later - does it communicate directly to the hub or via repeater?

Thanks, I had actually paired it again yesterday afternoon.
It took several attempts to pair it with all data fields populated.
And, when it finally did, it was picked as a "device" driver and not the P1 drivers for some reason.
Note: the battery level did not show initially after successful pairing, but is showing now at 78% although a new battery was recently fitted.

Also, I've just remotely viewed the child and route info, but the kitchen sensor route table entry is not available, not sure if it needs to be in use or something?

Routing table

But the good news is that the sensor seems to be working well now, thanks.

Thank you all who gave your vote on the poll.

I will start creating new threads individually for each different type of Aqara motion/presence sensor, probably starting with the old models. Once done and the new threads are linked to this one, I can ask for closing it.

New forum thread for the older models Xiaomi/Aqara motion sensors : - [RELEASE] Aqara / Xiaomi Motion Sensors driver

Both of my FP1s went offline this weekend (about 13 hours apart). They were working just fine until this happened.


and

I'm trying to reset and re-pair them, but holding down the button for 5s (or even 10s) doesn't seem to get it back into pairing mode. When I plug them in the blue LED blinks for an instant, but it never blinks when I hold the button down to reset them no matter how long I hold it.

I'm going to leave them off power for 10 minutes then try this:

Is there something else I should try?

One of my units wouldn't even pair - I would get a brief led flash and that was it. I think the trick may be to hold down for 10 secs then for 5 and timing is important.

I hope you have better luck, I eventually ended up throwing my unit away :rage:. My other FP1 in our powder room is still working fine though. :crossed_fingers:

Just to be clear - that's press and hold for 10s, release and then press and hold for 5s, correct? How long to have it released in the middle?

I'm trying this, and still not getting any response from either of my previously working FP1s. The LED doesn't light and they aren't re-pairing. The LED only briefly flashes when I first plug them in.

I can't tell you how long I futzed with it - other FP1 (I have 4) seemed to pair with little or no issues. In my case I am now almost certain it was a manufacturing defect. The FP1s appear to be well built so not sure what was going on :man_shrugging:

are they all on the same hub and what model of hubs?

I have 2 in operation now - C7 with updated firmware.

edit: also have tested on an rpi with UZB-7 and an install of HA. Both platforms work well..

edit2: ARGHHHHHH!!!!

Apologies @NoWon, have C7 / Z-Wave on the brain apparently it's a C5 on CH 13. With HA it was using a Sonoff ZB3 stick (the older one) CH 20.

I recently received 3 of them. All of them paired easily with my C-7 on channel 20. However, one of them will not reset to motion/presence inactive/not present no matter what I have tried so far (re-pairing, resetting, adjusting settings, moving the sensor, etc). Any ideas?

Happened to me as well in one of my 3 units.
Took it off the network rejoined and it worked again.
I did read that people are complaining about this in other forums as well

So, I've found a pairing method that reliably worked for four devices with me about 15 ft from the hub.

  1. Put HE into pairing mode.
  2. Power up FP1.
  3. Press the button on the back.
  4. Should see it pair. Go through the prompts to name the device and assign to a room.
  5. Wait about 30 seconds (do nothing with the device page/device pairing/nothing).
  6. Put HE back into pairing mode.
  7. Press the button on the back of the FP1 (just a regular press).
  8. Should get the prompt showing a "previously paired device".

At that point, everything should populate for the device over the next 30 seconds or so. This worked flawlessly after having several fits with the first two I added and trying to reset the device holding the button on the back.

I wanted to see about viability of getting one of these on a battery pack when I'm not having to recharge it every day. The obvious first question is...how much power do these things consume. The apparent answer is "very little."

I tried plugging the wall adapter into a Kasa plug with energy monitoring enabled. No reading. Hooked up a multimeter directly to the prongs of the adapter and got a reading of 0.001 A. I then just tried hooking it into a battery pack I have laying around. Apparently it's not pulling enough for the battery pack to realize anything is even connected. It does initially and I see the device data update in HE, but then the battery pack turns off. Maybe I'll just hot wire in 4 AAs and see what happens.

As agreed, now we have new, individual forum threads for the different types of Aqara motion and presence sensors :

I will ask @bobbyD to close this thread now, hope the OP doesn't mind.

Thank you, everyone, who helped and participated in the beta testing of this driver!

I'm trying to use notification for "motion active for at least 1 minute" but the 30 second reset to inactive is preventing it from triggering. Is there a way to only let the device report inactive and not the driver?
Obv I can enter 90 seconds or something in there, but I really want to know how long it stays active. (I'm actually using this in my vehicle for overnight security as we park in a shared lot off the alley behind our houses. Crazy as it is, I actually get great connection and fast response!)

If you set the motionActiveTimer preference to zero, it should effectively disable the auto-reset.
