Aha, sorry for my lack of knowledge, I’m quite new to this 🙂 Is there any other way to connect to Smartmi Airpurifier P1?

Extremely keen on this one, I have 12 of these all working on an Aqara E1 Hub, and would be FANTASTIC to have them under Homey.

My B1 curtain motors seem to be controlled in reverse. (ie. the open command on homey closes the curtains, while the close command opens them). Is this normal?

Hi there !

Glad to hear you didn’t abandon the Aqara app.

For me MOST IMPORTANT is the support of the Aqara FP1 (Motion/)Presence Sensor !!  
Please! Will buy you also some extra beers. 😉  
(Even more if you could speed it up).

My 1st one will be shipping end of August from AlieExpress.  
So then I could (beta) test it for you.

[![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/f/cfc8704ab0bbdcb8d73436985d42e0a82c7377f8.jpeg "Indoor Presence Sensing with Aqara FP1, PIR Motion sensors and Home Assistant") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0zUWrDumHM)

I need it because still when asleep/in bed or watchin TV with very less movement My Homey still triggers flows like “Not home” or (not) sleeping. 🤨

And also the new P1 motion sensor will complete the gap😎

Exactly same issue here. Both with aqara movement sensors and with temperature sensors. They stop reporting/updating after some time. Sometimes after a few hours (after adding) sometimes after a few days. Aqara Light sensor works perfect

My Aqara motion sensors stop releasing rhe alarm state in Homey after a while  
Could this be a problem of the Aqara Homey app? Running the latest version here.

They seem to continue to work, as I can see the light intensity values change. But the alarm state for movement isn’t released at all after time.

 ![Screenshot_20220731-202541_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/0/60d373ac48b7c4be5279b5451f573494d085e78e.jpeg)

Readding the se sor didn’t help, as didn’t removing the sensor and add it as a new one.  
A new battery and a Homey PtP was no problem solver as well.  
My Zigbee network has always been stable and reliable, but I expect no problems there, because the light intensity keeps updating correctly.

I had the exact same with a same sensor a month ago, but considered it broken at that moment. ☹

What could I do about this? Anyone having the same problems?

What light sensors do you have? Mi Light detection?

Regarding the other sensors, is it light detection that doesn’t work, or do they not work at all?

Yep, thats the one. The light sensor works perfect. Updates frequently.

The temp/hum/pressure sensor works after install but does not update frequently, mainly temp is slow and stops after while. I am now testing the newest app version (experimental) to see wether it improved.

On aqara motion/occ sensor, same story but then on motion.

Thanks for great information!  
I just picked up my first Aqara temp-sensor and a P1. Can I connect the sensor to Homey without an Aqara hub? I know the P1 doesn’t work yet.

</div>

Yep. No aqara hub needed, just the aqara&xiaomi app (zigbee) on homey.

Latest update: with the new app version (still in beta/experimental) the temp sensor keeps on updating (24hrs now). Will try aqara motion sensor too again.

Hi  
Would it be possible to add lux value as a parameter from Xiaomi light sensor so it can be used in flows (eg over/under lx value do this…). From what I can see only battery status was available in flows.

Thank you for your reply. Didn’t know that there is a difference if you have it in the first statement or in the second (AND-statement). I will just move them around and have it first. Thank you!

I don’t have the device myself and know from experience that adding an Aqara device based on interview data will not yield a working and lasting implementation. I can only rely on capturing the communication between the device and the Aqara hub…
