Sonoff Door sensor status change not received

Hi @hdebruin ,

The final version of the driver is not fully ready yet, but as it happens very often - I switched to working on another interesting project ... :slight_smile: ... so I am publishing the update now, even if it is semi-baked at the moment.

Please download the Tuya Zigbee Contact Sensor++ driver latest development branch version (1.1.2, 2023/10/20 12:46 PM) from the link in the second post of the driver thread. (this is a direct download link)

  1. Change the driver manually, then from the Preferences section, enable the 'Advanced Options' and hit Save.
  2. Configure the Battery Reporting interval to be 2 hours, for example.
  3. Enable the new "Poll Contact Status" option
  4. Hit Save.
  5. VERY IMPORTANT AND OBLIGATORY - pair the SONOFF sensor again to your HE hub.

The preferences should look like this:

Pairing again to the hub is needed because SONOFF battery-powered devices are extremely 'sleepy', so changing the configuration/reporting parameters is best done during the re-pairing process.

Let me know if the driver works with your setup first. A screenshot of the 'State Variables' after open/close tests will be useful. Press the F5 button on the browser to refresh the web page before making a screenshot.
