VZM32-SN How do I get this switch to report occupancy correctly? When I walk up to it it turns the light on and the log reports occupancy detected turns the lights on 31 sec ago. Even tho it just happened. I leave the room and 30 sec latter it turns off. I’d like to increase that time. Is it one of these(screenshot) I’ve tried a number of these but nothing seems to do it. Wished this setting was easier to find.
I assume you’re using ZHA? You’d have to wait for someone more familiar with ZHA than me to get specific information.
I know with Z2M, it is labeled MmWaveHoldTime, even though in the documentation I believe it is called mmWave Time Out (parameter 114) with a default value of 10 (1 second per). That 10 seconds, along with the 15 seconds from the MmWaveStayLife (parameter 108; with incorrect range either in documentation or Z2M) with a default value of 300 (50ms per), that ends up around 25 seconds or so.
Even with all this, the Occupancy “Sensor” in HA remains reading “Detected” while the light is on, even if there is no occupancy and it is just waiting for the Hold Time to elapse.
You could always change the MmWaveControlWiredDevice (aka Parameter 110 - Light On Presence Behavior) to disabled and allow HA to control the lights via automation using the dimmer’s Occupancy sensor and a timer helper, but you’d probably end up introducing a bit of extra delay when turning the lights on, but haven’t tested this to measure if there is additional delay.
Side note, I wish all of the parameter names would match across the documentation and as shown in the integrations.
