Tuya PIR sensor does not report motion state #58634

guidohaesen · 2021-10-28T19:38:57Z

The problem

Hello hard working devs and testers,

I installed Home Assistant 2021.11.0b0 today, and specially for the Tuya integration.
I deleted V2 and started over with the build in integration. And i must say, AWESOME.

But, there is always a but :-) the PIR sensors doesn’t update. It doesn’t release detected status. The door sensors works as it should.

Next test: Tuya Water Cooker 😀

What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?

Home Assistant 2021.11.0b0

What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?

You can help us with this issue by providing some information about your device.

To do that, please follow the next steps:

Login into https://iot.tuya.com/cloud/
Go to the "Cloud" tab in the left menu bar
Click on the Project Name/Description that you are using for your Home Assistant instance.
Once on that page, click on the "Devices" tab.
Find this device in that list and click on the "Debug Device" link. A new window will open with information about the device.

From this debugger, we can get some information that can be useful. From the "Basic Information" tab, please provide:

Product Name*
Product Category

Next, click on the "Device Debugging" tag. Once on that tab, you will find a small link called "JSON Editing", click on that link. It will now show a text field called JSON_EDITOR with some code in it. It looks something like this:

Copy and share that code from that text field into this issue.

Additional, the model of the device as shown in Home Assistant might be helpful too!
Thanks already 👍

That will help a lot! Thanks already!

Meh ok, that is odd, the debugger not debugging is not going to help us I guess...

Could you enable debug logging for the Tuya integration?

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/logger

logger:
  homeassistant.components.tuya: debug

And see if you get any debug logs when the device triggers motion.

guidohaesen · 2021-10-28T20:39:10Z

Only i can see in the log is that the battery is sending data:
2021-10-28 22:29:27 DEBUG (Thread-4) [homeassistant.components.tuya] Received update for device 20401777500291cf8fd5: {'pir': 'pir', 'battery_state': 'high'}

noting about the movement status. or should i look elsewhere?

frenck · 2021-10-28T20:46:17Z

There is no state indeed, so it cannot reflect the state in Home Assistant either.

I'll try the Action tomorrow, see if I can get my hand on one / if they are in stock again.

guidohaesen · 2021-10-28T20:55:55Z

Action doesn;t sell them anymore, On Bol.com you can find the same sensors with a diffrent name: Calex.
Or i can send you one of mine sensors, so you can test.

OK. i'll unpair and pair again a pir sensor in tuya app, see if that is a solution.
Strange thing is that the sensors work under Tuya V2,
Have a great night.

frenck · 2021-10-28T21:00:19Z

Strange thing is that the sensors work under Tuya V2,

That is interesting!

frenck · 2021-10-28T21:02:52Z

Aah I see, the implemented a "fake" PIR.

https://github.com/tuya/tuya-home-assistant/blob/tuya-v2-backup/custom_components/tuya_v2/binary_sensor.py#L291-L297

        if self._code == DPCODE_PIR:
            pir_range = json.loads(
                self.tuya_device.status_range.get(DPCODE_PIR, {}).values
            ).get("range")
            if len(pir_range) == 1 and self.tuya_device.status[DPCODE_PIR] == "pir":
                timer = Timer(10, lambda: self.reset_pir())
                timer.start()

Hmmm not sure yet how to handle that, ideally this becomes an event

Do you also get a debug log when there isn't movement anymore?

guidohaesen · 2021-10-29T04:49:30Z

Morning,
no nothing.
The logs shows only the battery status. every x minutes.
No motions on the pirs only movements on the cameras, thats new :-)

2021-10-28 23:15:01 DEBUG (Thread-4) [homeassistant.components.tuya] Received update for device 038880662462ab13f717: {'pir': 'pir', 'battery_state': 'middle'}

If i check logs in iot tuya, i see at the same time a movement instead of battery nfo, see image.

frenck · 2021-10-29T08:50:25Z

Got a PR opened for a suggested fix in #58673

guidohaesen · 2021-10-29T10:45:30Z

Hey Frenck,
i see the word FIX :-)
Can i test someting for you or should i wait till next release?
Groetjes Guido

frenck · 2021-10-29T12:41:58Z

Let's see if it gets approved, if so, it will probably be in one of the next beta's for you to test out.
I've been able to test it.

frenck · 2021-10-30T14:24:34Z

The solution isn't accepted by the reviewers, therefore it won't be fixed.

guidohaesen · 2021-10-30T14:57:20Z

I saw it. too bad.
So i need to buy different sensors or go back to V2?
Thanks for the work you did.

frenck · 2021-11-09T18:03:06Z

@antoweb As you can read above, the reason why was already clear. No additional logs or debugs are needed.

JeeWee65 · 2021-12-18T10:56:18Z

I have the same issue but not constant. The motion sensor works fine right after I reload the Tuya integration. At some point in time it seems to stop reporting motion to home assistant (or home assistant stops receiving), not clear yet what breaks the communication.

I don't tamper a lot but when I do I immediately get an home assistant notification (because of an automation i made) so it seems to be limited to reporting motion.

So I reload the Tuya integration from time to time. In the mean time I use a trick to get motion reported (in my case only if the sun is down); in the Smartlife app I have a simple automation that turns on a light if motion is detected. In home assistant I have an automation that detects this light being on and then turns on a boolean that stands for 'motion detected'. Another automation checks for a difference in time between motion sensor last_updated en boolean_motion last_updated and lets me know I have to reload. I don't do this automatically (yet) because it triggers an tampering critical notification which could get me worried without reason.

MatheGeek · 2021-12-21T21:48:32Z

@JeeWee65 Same issue here. I notice it since version 2021.12.2. It was working well before. The status is always reported in SmartLife App. If I restart HA (or the integration) it will work correctly for approx. an hour or two. Then the PIR sensor statis is no longer received by Home Assistant.

I have updated HA to the newest version and verified issue with LSC PIR Sensors. Nothing changed. Issue is still not fixed. Showing "Detected" status all the time after first detection.

I just installed the Tuya PIR sensors and have the same problem!

Are there any known working Zigbee PIR sensors? The one on the bottom of my stairs works, but not the top.

igorsantos07 · 2023-11-23T01:53:06Z

@DaleJP have you checked the Black Adder Zigbee database?

Hello, having the same problem with the infamous PIR from SLC ( ACTION).
I've set up a routine using Alexa to turn on led strip when motion is detected on the LSC PIR.
Somehow, using alexa, it works fine : Each time the red dot turn on on the PIR, the led strip turns on...but it takes around 3 sec to work, which is not satisfying.
Minimum delay shown between 2 detection is 55 sec????
I don't know how I can get any log to see how alexa managed to overpass this issue. Let me know what can I do to help.

I've recently upgraded from Hass core 2024.1.6 to 2024.6.3 and this Tuya Zigbee PIR sensor is working fine:
Hass name: Motion Sensor (lf56vpxj)
IOT Product Category: pir
https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/1005006246106212.html

Also this Smart Led Night Light PIR is working fine:
Hass name: Colorful PIR Night Light (lgekqfxdabipm3tn)
IOT Product Category: gyd
https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/1005005552778201.html

However this Zigbee PIR sensors works only with "set_state.py" workaround:
Hass name: PIR motion sensor (IDkXwcvanigdiTj3)
IOT Product Category: qt
https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/1005006269725092.html

This WIFi PIR and Light sensor also working only with "set_state.py" workaround:
Hass name: Multifunctional infrared detector (lokl35ptqxauik7x)
IOT Product Category: pir
https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/1005005394587182.html

DonKracho · 2024-07-27T10:23:26Z

As mentioned several times. his is a bug of the WiFi PIR device itself and won't fix. The manufacturer has to fix it but doesn't react for years because it is working in the Tuya apps. But just write an automation wich resets the state to 'undetected' with a few seconds delay on HA Startup and when triggered (sunset for paranoja) and the WiFi PIR will work fine. 'set_state' is a python script. May be there is a more elegant way nowdays.

`alias: PIR Carport set state normal
description: ""
trigger:

platform: state
entity_id:
- binary_sensor.pir_sensor_carport_bewegung
  to: "on"
  for:
  hours: 0
  minutes: 0
  seconds: 15
  from: "off"
platform: homeassistant
event: start
platform: sun
event: sunset
offset: 0
condition: []
action:
service: python_script.set_state
data_template:
entity_id: binary_sensor.pir_sensor_carport_bewegung
state: "off"
mode: single
