2020 Hue Motion Sensor Activation Timeout / Delay / Inactivity / Timer
Hello,
because there seems to be NO solution online anywhere, I am going to post this question in english,
so others can get help in the future.
I am going crazy over this.
Scenario: I have a motion sensor and a smart button in the same room.
- I enter the room and the motion sensor fires – lights turn on.
- I exit the room and press the smart button – lights turn off.
- I forgot something in the room and enter it again within 10 seconds – lights stay off.
- I move around for XXX amount of minutes – lights stay off.
- I exit the room and wait 10 seconds.
- I enter the room and the motion sensor fires – lights turn on.
It seems like there is a 10 second delay after the motion sensor firing, in which the state of „motion detected“ and „motion undetected“ is locked can not change, therefore the motion sensor does not fire again.
I tried HueDynamic but the motion sensor function „Reset motion timout if lights are switched off“ does not work.
I tried all4hue but can't find the appropriate setting (I tried to do it with timers, variables and so on, but no satisfying result).
I tried HueEssentials.. Alexa.. The original Hue app…
Nothing works.
Anyone has a working solution to my specified problem?
This is a mandatory.
Thanks and greetings, Chris.

Have the same problem. The timeout is pretty anoying and nit mentioned in the settings. Would be nice to change/disable that.
