Hi @MarcoRuiter

For me only temperature and lux are updating (and very accurate).  
Also settings are saved now (after pressing 3times on the button)

However: Homey is (still) not responding to movement.  
BTW: The PIR is flashing once on detecting movement.

Am i doing something wrong ? ( I removed the PIR and the old app first; now on version 2.1.7)

Did you remove the pir completely from homey and when you added it again did it come into homey as a pir v3 ?

No,  
I have choosen the V2. (The box also says ‘V2’)  
The V3 has another coupling protocol. When i hold the button for 10 seconds there is no response (also no white flashing led)

Oh and if tried any setting changes before it’s always good to give the pir a reset 2 default .

After you removed it from homey hold the pair button for I think it was around 15 seconds then it turns red completely and when it starts blinking you can let it go

After that do a new pair

I have removed the sensor and also remove v2.1.6 of the app. I then installed the new app (v2.1.7) and re-paired the pir. So far I have not seen that the sensor has reported movement. The red light on the pir flashes once when I am in the area. However no movement is reported to Homey. The temperature and lux seems to work ok. What I still do not understand is the parameter setting. This sensor has a parameter (10) ‘Ambient Temperature Differential Report’ . Why is this not visible in the app. I have switched off the led in the app, but that does not give any result. I have the feeling there is an inconsistency between the parameters defined in the ass as compared with those supported in the sensor.

Or a mistake in type numbers ?  
As far as i know there is no V3 version of the PIR.  
Problem started when there where 2 versions of the V2: one with SKU: NEO\_PD02Z (the old one) and one with SKU: NEO\_PD03Z (the new one, but still the Z-wave PLus V2)

Not sure if I should select V2 or V3 in the new app. I have selected V3. I will re-try after a full reset of the sensor.

I cannot pair with the V3 at all.

You can choose whatever you want it does not matter . Homey will select whatever it needs . You can even select fibaro pir and homey will add it as the correct neo.

It’s important for me to know . How does it show up with the default name . V1 V2 or v3

If it still shows up as V2 then neo also changed something in the V2 firmwares which I can correct . I received the new v3 and the box also showed V2 . But I only corrected the firmware changes for the v3 . Maybee the V2 also needs that .

@MarcoRuiter I have reset the sensor and added it as V2 and it shows in Homey also as V2. Earlier I added it as V3 and indeed it showed also as V2. I will give it some time now.
