Great new Xiaomi Aqara Sensor with illuminance detection

Xiaomi released a new sensor with light intensity detection:

It works great except I cannot make the intensity to be detected by ST.
Anyone has a custom DH out there?

Would be also interested in this!

Ive orderd two of them, hope someone makes a DH. god i love the xiaomi products, dirt cheap and good products.

I have this exact one and cannot add it to my ST hub. Is there a Device Handler for this one?

Are u adding it correctly? Mine is working except the luminosity part

Yes, I am adding it correctly
I think. I am not sure how I could add it incorrectly? I “Add a Thing” and it never shows up. I am assuming I need a DH. I tried the DH for the original Xiaomi human body sensor, but still nothing. Do you have a DH for the Aqara Human Body Sensor?

Have u clicked several times in the device button to put it in pair mode?

Have you found an answer to this?

My Aqara sensors were able to be added much easier than the older non-aqara Xiaomi sensors. With the add thing function on, hold the button for 5 seconds, wait 5, then press the button for 2 seconds. Might take a few goes but it does work. If it fails, the ‘catchall’ method will work.

I am using the aqara motion sensor DTH by bspranger/Xiaomi on Github - the light intensity is reported in percentage. I Haven’t got it working with the light controller app as it expects a lux reading


I have just got 2 of these as I was interested in using the lux capability as well.
I have them paired and can see the light intensity being shown as a percentage.
Also when trying to add them to webCoRE they do not show up in the illumination sensor category.
I’ve also noticed in the bspranger DH that there is no capability for illumination so this is probably why.

Has anybody got these working as a lux sensor?
If so, how are they performing and what did you do to get them working.

Additional note. I see that light % only reports when there is motion. Is this correct?
TIA.

Correct. Only when motion triggers we get an updated lux value.
I have it working in WebCore


When you say you have it working in webCoRE, is this for light measurement or motion?

light measurement

I manage to add it as an illuminance sensor


I am using this DH:

  • the device does not appear to acccept the configureReporting command for illuminance.
  • Based on original DH by Eric Maycock 2015
  • modified 29/12/2016 a4refillpad
  • Added fingerprinting
  • Added heartbeat/lastcheckin for monitoring
  • Added battery and refresh
  • Motion background colours consistent with latest DH
  • Fixed max battery percentage to be 100%
  • Added Last update to main tile
  • Added last motion tile
  • Heartdeat icon plus improved localisation of date
  • removed non working tiles and changed layout and incorporated latest colours
  • added experimental health check as worked out by rolled54.Why

Thanks for this but do you have the link where you got it from as it would be easier to copy in in.

Sorry but don’t


Looks like this code from @ArstenA:
https://github.com/bspranger/Xiaomi/blob/master/devicetypes/a4refillpad/xiaomi-aqara-motion-sensor.src/xiaomi-aqara-motion-sensor.groovy

This is the one that i already have.
There is no illuminence capability in this one. That I can see anyway.

Hi @Sergio_Ferreira
Is there anyway you can post the cost in the same way that @jymbob posted his?
While I really appreciate your help, I’m afraid I cannot copy and paste the code with the way you have posted it.
Thanks.

are you sure you’ve got the latest version? I’ve got illuminance here, and I’m pretty sure that’s the DTH I’m using


If you look at the code you have posted, there is no capability for Illuminance. (Under line 37).
If you look at the code that @Sergio_Ferreira posted you will see that there is and also there are additional fingerprint profileId’s in lines 43,44.
I can copy those in to the existing code easy enough but it is going through all the code to find the differences that is the problem.
Someone obviously wrote the code for the new DH but I just need to know who so that I can hopefully find it on github.
