Hi,
I have a neo coolcam motion sensor, it only updates the lux value when motion is detected. Is it possible to get it work that the lux value is getting updated without motion?
The following settings should do the trick I guess, but it is not working.
7. Illumination reporting interval 180 sec
9. Illumination report threshold: 25 lux
Any ideas?

Re: Neo coolcam motion sensor lux update
This works for me:
Code: Select all
1. Sensitivity Level Setting: 12 (actual: 12)
2. On/Off Duration: 30 (second) (actual: 30)
3. Basic Set Level: 255 (actual: 255)
4. PIR Detecting Function Enabled/Disabled: Enable
5. Ambient Illumination Lux Level: 100 (lux) (actual: 100)
6. Re-trigger Interval Setting: 8 (second) (actual: 8)
7. Light Sensor Polling Interval: 180 (second) (actual: 180)
8. Lux Level Function Enable: Enable
9. Ambient illumination Lux Level Report: 5 (lux) (actual: 5)
10. Led Blink Enable: Enable
2000. Wake-up Interval: 43200 (Seconds) (actual: 43200)

Re: Neo coolcam motion sensor lux update
I installed two of these yesterday. I am looking for more or less the same thing, but the settings don't get changed.
I can update the settings very often, but they revert back to the original settings time and again!
It is also a pity that the ON time is no longer than 10 minutes.

Re: Neo coolcam motion sensor lux update
Just before before you change the settings in Domoticz you should wakeup the device manually.

Re: Neo coolcam motion sensor lux update
The other way around works as well: change the settings and then wake up the device. Waking up these devices is done by pressing the inclusion button once

Re: Neo coolcam motion sensor lux update
And to add to it, I have set mine to every 5 minutes report the lux and both Neo Coolcam multi sensor I currently have in use do that just fine.

Re: Neo coolcam motion sensor lux update
Take care that newer device (the one using a magnet) have 2 versions... with the same device ID: Neo did it "the Chinese way" again!
One have a temperature sensor, the other do not!
A hack was done in newer device xml configuration file to be able to configure both versions that should have had different device IDs (thus able to have their own dedicated xml config file): Carefully read the text, as some parameters apply to one version only.
This new config file is not included in current stable and must be replaced manually from current OZW github one. Domoticz must be stopped and PIR device node data (and only this node data) must be erased from ozw node cache file before restart for new configuration items being used by Domoticz.

Re: Neo coolcam motion sensor lux update
Hmmm... nice stuff
I have the ones with temperature sensor.
But good thing you point this out
