No motion detection on pir v4 in homey. It reports humidity, lux, temp etc. But motion not. Been searching, found little, some threads in dutch. The pir v4 signals with the led that it detects motion, but never in homey. Any clues?

Stumbled upon your question here while looking for similar info regarding my PIR 4 sensors. Motion reporting is fine, but most of mine just refuse to report lux levels. They report them sometimes, it seems totally random. Extremely annoying. Did you ever find a solution for your problems?

Same here, everything works except lux, it works only when the lux amount changes radically. In the advance setting you can change the threshold value - its on 20lux as default. But trying to change to lower value but it shows an error message

That’s odd, I have no problem setting it lower than 20.

I just found some kind of solution for my problem. There is a setting to recalibrate the lux values. The default is something like 5360, but I’ve set it to 25000 and suddenly I get a lot more lux updates.

Go to the homey devtools page, select zwave on the option on the left, and find the PIR node numbers.  
Scroll a bit down, find the “Send raw data” option. Enter ,99,2,25000 and click send.  
99 is the parameter number, 2 indicates a 2 bit entry, 25000 is the calibration number.  
My sensors are on usb power, so I did not have to wake them up to receive the update. If you are using batteries I’m not sure how to wake the sensors up.

I just realise that I don’t have the same settings you seem to have on the screenshot. I don’t have any illumination settings?!
