ZEN16 800LR sensor status not updating

Its not an issue, it is SmartStart working as intended.
You have to remove or disable in SS for that to not happen. Or you could have just left it to re-pair by itself (the power cycle may not be needed).

You will need to remove all the ghost nodes, see section 3: How To Remove Ghosts using hub tools or a UZB Stick

I am pretty sure if you just switch the setting to contact sensor and pair again it will work as intended. Or are you saying you already tried that? Your reply above was not very clear?

Couldn't get what?
