They should work as generic Zigbee Lights because this was already with Homey firmware v7.1 implemented ([Source](https://homey.app/en-us/news/whats-new-in-homey-v7-1/)). So in general no special app is needed. If you check the first post of this topic for the ID’s, you will recognize that these (I guess) new ID’s not supported by the app yet. But in the first post it’s also described what has to be done if you want to request a new device to be added to the app. So please follow this instruction. ---

Hi I have Hue Outdoor Occupancy Sensor (SML004) connected to my Homey Pro (2016-2019). The Outdoor Occupancy Sensor is not connected via hue bridge. It works as I want with flows and detects movement as expected. When I try to adjust settings, such as “min report interval for lux” of the Outdoor Occupancy Sensor in the Homey Pro i get the error message “invalid\_setting\_type”. Can I do anything to fix this? Should I add the sensor to the hue bridge first and after that to the Homey Pro? ![1000016549](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/5/8/58b6ee4caa2eb754216584f0bcb7fd416c3bcda2.jpeg) ---

Hi, The contact sensor seems defective. I can add it, but it doesn’t recognize if it make contact or not and can’t find any battery info either. Is this a known issue, or not? ---

It seems the Hue contact sensor does not work with Homey. I can install it using the Philips Hue without bridge app , but it does not show any data. Any idea about the root cause ? ---

> [@s73nm](#): > > The sensor was paired approximately 2m from working Zigbee devices that function as a router, Can you repeat the pairing / repair in close distance of Homey, if that will improve anything ? Even if close distance of Zigbee router, it’s not automatically 100% ensured it’s used by the device, even the probability shall be significant. Also which contact sensor do you mean - please go to [Homey Developer Tools](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/zigbee) and copy Manufacturer and ModelID ---

Thanks for your response. This is for the Hue Contact Sensor: - Manufacturer: Signify Netherlands B.V. - ModelID: SOC001 Tried both a repair as well as a remove + add new device in close proximity of the HP23 (\< 1m). Unfortunately no change. ---

i had a philips hue bridge with a single wall switch and two hue lamps and the switch controlled one or the other lamp separately using the dual channel of the switch. Now i have migrated everything to the Homey pro (without the philips bridge) but i can’t find how to make the dual channel of the hue switch work! does anyone know how? ---

Shorting the 2nd input on the physical device (with a switch) does not trigger the 2nd virtual module in your app anymore, but now wrongly triggers 1st module instead. Grateful for fixing this asap, as likely I am not the only unable to use the 2nd switch anymore. Thanks very much! ---

Hi, i’m new to homey and have a strange issue regarding the Hue Wall Switch: After adding the device using this app, everything worked perfectly. After one or two days, every press of the switch is suddenly sent 3 times to homey. So I press the rocker button once and the switch sends 3 presses. First I thought there is a problem with the button, but it also happens when i connect the two wires of the switch manually, without the button attached. I already tried re-adding the switch numerous times, sometimes it helps again for a few days, sometimes the triple press is right after re-adding the device. Any ideas what could cause this?
