1.0.918 ZIR000 configuration help

I’m trying to configure the motion sensor in my bedroom to turn the light on and keep the light on while it detects motion.

And then I would like the light to turn off within 30 seconds after I leave the bedroom…

I can only get the light to turn off after two minutes and no sooner. Is there a limitation in the sensor that will keep the lights on for a minimum of two minutes?

Who’s got the answer? Who gets a cookie?

HSM100 has a lower bound of 1min on the timeout variable, perhaps the ZIR is similar? is the ZIR timeout set by a variable?

Yes, variable 18. How do I get at it?

click “custom zwave settings” under the ZIR in the zwave devices menu, then if u scroll all the way to the bottom of the page it will let you put in a variable # and a setting.

my guess is it is going to be a 1 byte dec setting that can be set 1-255 just like the HSM100

dont forget to “configure node right now” after you set the variable, make sure to manually wake up your battery powered sensor before the configure too or it will fail

Do I have to hit the “Add configuration setting” button?

yes, quite a process just to change 1 measly setting isn’t it? could be worse though, we could have no way to change the variables at all…

trying to get in a glass half full mood, haha

Me too. At least MCV could provide us with some decent documentation. I feel like I’m digging through trash cans to get the information I need! ???

Its all in the wiki, but looking through that can be equated to digging… and its a lot of reading.
