Setting report interval luminance 3in1 sensor

Need Answer

Hi, I would like to use a luminance sensor to control my garden lights.I want to use the zipato 3in1 multisensor. Only the interval of the light output too low once every six hours. As mentioned in the manual, I tried the value amended by config option 12, but without the desired result.When I look in the manual, it says something about config option 20, only I can find anywhere.Can anyone tell me what I do wrong?the strange thing is, that the thempratuur settings are at the same values. and here it is every 10/15 minutes reported all status

Weslop, there are two settings that you can change in order to make your sensor be more sensitive to light changes, first is the LUMINANCE TRIGGER, this tells the sensor how big the luminance change need to be in order to report to the controller, as far as I see in the image 99 lux is a sensitive setting.


Second setting is luminance report interval, this is how often you want the sensor to report luminance to the controller, regardless of the sensor measurements, this is quite long for your application, you are telling the sensor to report every 50 hours, setting units are 30 minutes interval so 100*30=3000/60=50.


Remember you need to wake up your device in order for it to read new configuration from the controller, otherwise you will not see behaviour changes after config update. See the manual for more information about "wake up" procedure.
