Hello, is there a possibility to deactivate a motion sensor by pressing a button on a dimmer switch? Your app itself can do this but i did not find it as a function/action… Eure App an sich kann das jedoch habe ich es nicht als funktion/aktion gefunden… Example: Corridor A motion sensor is insta…

This feature will be added in the next update. Version 1.18.0 on Android and 1.12.0 on iOS. It should be available within a few days, beta testers will receive the update earlier. It is called “toggle sensor” and you can switch on or off a motion sensor. Let me know if you have any questions or su…

Hi, First of all, good job for the work done on this app I really appreciate it! I have the same need, I’m building a home-made alarm system composed by a motion sensor and a 120db siren connected to a smart plug. When the sensor detects something the smart plus is actived and the siren works for…

That is a super interesting use case @Sed95 :slight_smile: I would really appreciate the same feature, to activate/deactivate a particular motion sensor as an assignable action. My case is far more mundane. I have a motion sensor in my bedroom, to provide a bit of guiding nightlight if one of us g…

If you are interrested in the use case with the alarm please not that I replaced the Hue Smart Plug by an Amazon Smart plug, the Hue one automatically starts enabled after 2 power shut downs whereas the Amazon plug in this case stays disabled. @Thomas Any idea when you will implement the feature? b…

[image] Sed95: @Thomas Any idea when you will implement the feature? by the way is it currently technically doable ? It is definitely possible on a Hue bridge. I just need to find some time to add this to the app. There are lots of feature requests so it can take some time.

Ok good news if it is doable, good luck and thanks again for your work !

No problem, i support you a little :slight_smile: https://IP/api/APIKEY/sensors/79/config {“on”:true} {“on”:false}

Hi, not sure to understand, we can use this code somewhere in the app to setup the disable action on the dimmer action ?

No, but this is how to control A Sensor with an api request. Meanwhile i have create A temp Button with this request in A 3rd Part Software (mediola) to have a not Good but working solution. If Thomas create an function in Essentials it would be work much better. This Post was A funny “we want this…

I would also love this functionality! There’s another scenario for me, too: I do have one motion sensor in my hall way and i want it to turn hall way AND kitchen on with nightlight (no door there) and when i stay in the kitchen (sensor doesn’t see me) i want to turn the lights brighter by dimmer sw…

Hi @Thomas , great news! May I know if it will be possible to add several “toggle sensor” actions for different sensors in the same group of button actions? For example to do this scenario : when I press “I” button switch on 2 sensors and when I press “O” switch off the 2 sensors? Another questio…
