Yes, that was the wrong order.  
And although the banner appears “Will be saved at the next automatic WakeUp…” my experience is that this will not happen.

Changes of parameters on battery-powered Z-Wave devices must always be saved in this order:

1. wake up device
2. save changes

Hi

Since v3.8 I have 11 Aeotec multisensor 6 devices, all of which are reporting motion sensor alarms and not cancelling by themselves, despite various sensitivity settings.

The false alarm state survives a homey reboot

How can I help further diagnose a bug?

Hi there

I am just testing some ddor sensors. Today I wanted to connect the Aeotec door/window sensor 7 Pro. App Version 3.8.6. After three or four tries at least sensor was found.Before installing I always test if sensor is working correctly…but nothing is happening. Seems that the contact function is not working. Battery status is shown. But no function on sensor open or closed. Attached a screen shot from Homey developer.

 ![Aeotec](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/a/7a0101d292a154ae2daeade2f03a927357fb7570.png)

This is how it looks in the App

 ![Aetoec2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/6/d62f7bde66876a443933764b7328a85d0262401c.png)

Node 3 (Fibaro door sensor) is working correctly…

Any idea anyone?

Thanks

Sure but Aeotec’s advice is how to set the cancellation time. I know how to do that. It’s set to 60 seconds. The firmware hasn’t changed since the problem has presented itself. Only thing that has changed is the Homey Aeotec App (v3.8). How can it be diagnosed what about that version is not happy with my devices?

</div>

According the change log of the Homey Aeotec App ([Link](https://aeotec.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/6000245694)), the last change regarding the MS 6 (ZW100) was done in v3.2.0 (added Russian ID device). But at version v3.8.0/3.8.1 there were made general fixes for Homey Firmware Version v7.4.1. I don’t know if changes have been made that could possibly affect the behavior of the MS 6.

Some suggestions:

- exclude/include a MS6
- check if there is a new firmware for the MS 6 → update ([Link](https://aeotec.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/6000036562-how-to-update-multisensor-6-z-wave-firmware-))
- contact Aeotec, as they are also responsible for the Homey App development

If you have no possibility to update the firmware of the MS 6, then I could provide you with an Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5

Btw, the Aeotec Homey App v3.8.0 was already released on the 3rd of June 2022. Did you update the app just a few weeks ago?

MS6 or MS7?  
Battery or current powered?

Some time ago I had the MS6 in use (battery operated). I didn’t pay attention to the reporting interval for humidity, but the lux value was updated only every 60 minutes with the default settings. After I reduced the “WakeUp Interval” to 240 seconds, Lux values were sent every 4 minutes (please have a look at this [topic](https://community.homey.app/t/aeotec-multisensor-6-messintervall/33435/1) (sorry, only in German language)). However, this significantly increased the battery consumption.  
Some time later I powered the MS6 via USB cable. I can’t remember at what interval the values were transmitted, but I would say they were in a “normal” range. In addition, the interval also depends on the device settings.  
But I have no experience with the MS7 so far, sorry.

Do you still have problems with the multisensor? I have a multisensor 6 connected to power with usb. But I have problems with it sending motion events. The rgb led on the sensor is green long time before homey gets any motion events. What might be wrong?

FYI, if someone would be looking for water leak sensor for inspection concrete shaft for house water connection, with a cast iron cover, with extension, so far ZWAVE sensor Water Sensor 7 Pro - [Water Sensor 7 Pro – Aeotec](https://aeotec.com/products/aeotec-water-sensor-7-pro/) - works very well. In that shaft, I don’t get wifi nor LTE signal, so I was worried if anything would work, so tried with ZWAVE from Aeotec and seems to be good one 😉
