Hello ! I’va got a problem with a new Fibaro FGMS-001. It look like when the tamper mode turned on, it blinks every colors quickly (normal) but after that the fibaro is still switch colors slowly (+ tamper/motion stay active and eat battery to the end…). This is my second fibaro FGMS-001 and I don’t have this problem with the first one… Any ideas ? Thanks, Julien ---

I removed and readded the sensor. Still stuck in tamper alert. Using latest Homey beta firmware and latest beta fibaro app. ---

Thank you @Jamie, I’ll take a look this evening ! But I don’t see they talking about non stop switching color (like when we reset fibaro motion sensor devise). ---

@Julien_Moors I’m sorry I misunderstood, your right its unrelated. ---

Is it the Z-wave plus version you are using? I can’t seem to get Homey to read the current status from my two Fibaro sensors (z-wave plus) 😔 ---

Hello @MS84, When I say “It works great” I mean the motion detection works: ![23](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/e/e7719506c5d8e205f92095d8667adf571e73f59b.png) **BUT** Temperature, Luminance and battery reports are sh\*t ! Here are reporting since yesterday 8pm (when I installed the FGMS).It looks like the report delay is completely random ! (I’m not at home since this morning that’s why there is no Motion Alarm) ![33](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/2/2f3c583c9aab9b28d9424e7025bc81a1928b63f2.png) I hope one day I’ll be able to use and trust temperature reports to control my radiator valves but as you see now, I can’t get useful information… ---

Hello Julien, About this Fibaro motion sensor … since 2018, is it always the same problem ? I would like to use one outside for temperature and luminance … Thanks for your help. Bruno ---
