Just added a ZSE40. Downloaded the advanced driver from the Hubitat Package manager and selected that driver. On the dashboard it will show motion if you pick Motion as the template. But Multi Sensor, Temperature, Humidity or Illuminance all display either a ? (multi sensor) or Unknown. Am I missing something? I have clicked forceRefresh and fullConfigure from the Device page.
I also tried selecting Attribute and picking temp, humidity, illuminance, battery and motion and only battery and motion work.
Of course so sooner than I post that and now they are working, well not multi sensor but the various parameters. Only seeing 0 or 100 for illuminance though. I'll keep fooling with it.
This is meant for things like the SmartThings Multisensor, which have the contact sensor capability (arguably their main feature) and happen to support a few more, so that's what the "?" is telling you you're missing--so it won't really work for a multifearured motion sensor, at least not unless it does contact too.
Thanks. Sadly the illuminance on this really seems to be poor. I either get 100 with a light blub pointed right at it or 0. Guess I'll try to return it as I got it for the lux portion.
Yeah, illuminance is weird on that sensor to start with--it doesn't do lux like most but rather percent (of what? Who knows, the relatively small maximum the sensor can read, I guess), and it's really only good for telling whether it's "bright enough" or what degree of "slightly less bright." Depending on what driver you're using, some try to scale it to lux for consistency, but you're still stuck with the limited gamut regardless.
Yes the ZSE40 has a terrible lux sensor, its primary function was meant to be motion. The ZSE11 is more normal for lux as it reports actual lux values but the motion sensor is a little slower to respond.
I always hear great things about the Hue Zigbee sensor on here. Little more expensive though, as all Hue products are. Not sure how some of the other brands stack up against the Zooz.
I have several of these. I use them for motion sensing, sometimes for humidity, and occasionally for temperature (They are mounted at the ceiling, so they always read hotter than where the humans are. ) The illuminance sensor is useless. At most it can tell if it sees light or not.
