I have a problem...

Have a Fibaro Door/window Sensor with temperature connected to my ZipaBox


Today I saw that the battery level for it was down to 32% (was only weeks since installed)


When I look in the Events Panel for the device I see that it for some reason CONSTANTLY switches OPEN/CLOSE (see picture)

Ofcourse that is the reason the battery is drained!


But what can I do to stop it???!!!


Can I turn off the door sensor in it... I can live without it for some time.

But I very much need that readings from the temperature sensor!!!!


I have 400km car trip to manualy fix it, so how to stop this battery drain remotly?


What can I do???

I was thinking that the battery should live for a year or two.

Strange! I do have the same sensor wo this problem.

Sometimes i have experienced multipel open states But not

continuously like yours. Did this start now after firmware update?


Have you tried to re-apply the descriptors?

Solved! (for this time)


First tried re-apply... didn't help :-/


Then changed the configuration from NORMAL_CLOSED to NORMAL_OPEN and did a SYNC, then it stoped! :-)


Changed back to NORMAL_CLOSED, and the problem is gone.

(at least not flooding events)


Must have been that sensor that got some (in swedish) "tuppjuck"


I have the new firmware, but this must have been something in the Fibaro sensor, don't think it is Zipatos fault!
