Behavior of last seen from philips hue motion

Can somebody explain what is happening?
I have a Philips hue outdoor motion sensor connected to my Zigate. I wanted to write a script with dzvents that turns the lights off after 5 min no motion. But if i use devices.lastupdate the devices.lastupdate resets after 4 minutes, even when there is no motion. Sometimes the device announces himself again after 4 min. I watched the log from last night, and a couple times the counter got to 5 of 9 min. But most of the time it only get till 4 min.
The cooldown for the motion sensor is 5 min. So if i write a script with lights off after 4 and we stay outside longer then that the lights go out for a minute, before motion is detected again.
Mayby i can get creative with a variable, but i like to know why it is behaving like this.

When looking for help here on a script related issue, please always include both the complete script (obscure any sensitive stuff) and the loglines.
Thx

The script is working fine, it only shows what is happening with the device last update status. I think it is more a zigate or device related.
But for the one who wants to know:
Code: Select all
return {
on = {
timer = {
'every 1 minutes'
}
},
execute = function(dz, timer)
local Tuinverlichting = dz.groups('Tuinverlichting')
local Buitensensor = dz.devices('Buitensensor')
print('Buitensensor updated ' .. Buitensensor.lastUpdate.minutesAgo .. ' minutes ago')
if Buitensensor.lastUpdate.minutesAgo >= 4 and (Tuinverlichting.state == 'On' or Tuinverlichting.state == 'Mixed') then
Tuinverlichting.switchOff()
print('Tuinverlichting is switched off')
else
print('Tuinverlichting state is ' .. Tuinverlichting.state)
end
end
}

Thx for sharing.
Could it be that the motion sensor reacts to the light?
Most motion sensors change state when motion is detected AND they change state after the set timeout period. In domoticz this will update the lastUpdate field in both cases.

I will check the log again tomorrow. It can make the difference between day and night maybe that is the way he does that..

It seems like at night time the sensor get updates every 5 min or longer. Too bad i can use that value.

here is a different approach
use the dzVent data function to detect the last switch on.
i wrote this script to detect the absence of movement, but you should get the general idea.

Maybe I am overlooking something but to solve the gardenlight/ motion issue of @RezaRose it should be possible to just code it like below.
assuming the initial state is that the garden lights are On / Mixed.
Code: Select all
return
{
on =
{
devices =
{
'Buitensensor',
},
},
logging =
{
level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
marker = 'motion',
},
execute = function(dz, item)
local lights = dz.groups('Tuinverlichting')
local timeout = 300 -- timeout in seconds
if item.active and lights.state ~= 'Off' then
lights.switchOff().afterSec(timeout) -- this is also an implicit cancelQueuedCommands() for this device
end
end
}

I have tried your version. With .afterMinutes. It does not work properly because it only activates when the sensor is detecting motion.
Maybe i can fix it with a variable that update +1 when te timer get on 4 min or above. And if the variable gets on 2 the lights go off. So that is between 5 or 8 min then. And that is fine.

OK.
Below version will also be triggered when the group is switched.
Code: Select all
return
{
on =
{
devices =
{
'Buitensensor',
},
groups =
{
'Tuinverlichting',
},
},
logging =
{
level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
marker = 'motion',
},
execute = function(dz, item)
local lights = dz.groups('Tuinverlichting')
local sensor = dz.devices('Buitensensor')
local timeout = 300 -- timeout in seconds
if item.state ~= 'Off' and lights.state ~= 'Off' then
lights.switchOff().afterSec(timeout) -- this is also an implicit cancelQueuedCommands() for this device
end
end
}
