deConz node not connecting to controller

Not sure where else to put this...

I have a Trädfri motion sensor that was working fine with Conbee, deConz and Domoticz. Today all of a sudden the node is not connected to the controller in deConz on my host.

How can I reconnect a node like this?

Only this one ?
Strange, ikea device don't leave the network ..., no battery problem ?
It have stopped working too ?

To reconnect it, just go in phoscon, take "add new sensor" / "ikea" and you will see the procedure for the motion detection device.

You will not loose your setting in domoticz.

Was a battery issue. Adding it as a new one automatically deleted the old one in Phoscon. And in Domoticz everything is up and running as well.

Thanks again for your support!

Yep, if you haven't issue on a previous entry, never delete the old one.

- There is some issue but the new one can take exactly the same name than the previous one.
- The new one overwrite the previous one. You can have only 1 device with the same Mac adress.
- It can help for integration, some information can be re-used (like for tuya stuff)
- On domoticz side, the plugin use only the mac address, so in case of problem , just restart the plugin and it will find again all your device integrated in domoticz even with different name or ID in deconz (all will be invisible)
