Aeotic MultiSensor 6 motion does not pick up motion unless right under it

[kcampbell]

My Multisensor 6 paired really quick and it does see the motion but not from any distance. I have it mounted in my ceiling (10’) and it will detect motion only from a very limited distance. I have tried to set the sensitivity from max to min but still the same. I have rotated it a full 360 and it will see somewhat further in one direction but not too far. Also the temp and humidity sensor aren’t very accurate. Is there any way to “adjust” it?

What DTH are you using? There are options in the device to modify the sensitivity of the motion sensing. Here’s one if you’re looking:

[RELEASE] Aeon Multisensor 6 (Advanced)

I know there already is some community code for this device, but I had to add my little twist to it. Some time ago I got pretty frustrated with the configuration and battery life on this device. I went about heavily optimizing this handler to make things simpler and squeeze some extra juice out of this device. I am not sure by how much, but these settings should make a difference in battery life. It has been sitting in my IDE collecting dust but wanted to make it available in case some are interested. It has some remnants of the official handler as well as so thanks to @Robert_Vandervoort and others that have worked on it. This device has 3 different firmware versions that act a little differently which made writing code for this thing a beast, but I think I have everything working for 1.…
