Hi, I have 2 Hue Outdoor sensors. When I installed the first one about 1 year ago, everything was working well. Now that I installed a second Hue Outdoor sensor, the motion part is working as expected, but I do not see the temperature and luminance values on the device. When looking in the develop tools of Homey ([Homey Developer Tools](https://tools.developer.homey.app/devices)), I see the following: - measure\_temperature = null - measure\_luminance = null I have tried the following: - removing the sensor from Homey and adding it again. - Removing the sensor from the Hue app and adding it again I have checked in the Hue app (through the Hue Lab) and there I can see that the sensor is passing on a value for the temperature as well as for the luminance, so I guess there is nothing wrong with the sensor. Any ideas? Kind regards Patrick ---

Take the beta app: > **[Philips Hue, without the bridge](https://homey.app/de-de/app/com.philips.hue.zigbee/Philips-Hue,-without-the-bridge/)** > > Smart light — your way. ---

But I have 2 Hue bridges where my (approximately) 100 lights and accessories are attached on. Would it really make sense to go through a beta app without the Hue bridges? And why is one of the outdoor sensors showing the temperature and luminance, but the other one not? This seems strange to me. ---

In this case it makes of course no sense to use the _ **Philips Hue, without the bridge** _ app. So my suggestion is to contact Athom. ---

Thank you. I will reach out to them. ---

> [@Patrick\_Hendrickx](#): > > And why is one of the outdoor sensors showing the temperature and luminance, but the other one not? I know philips has updated their motion sensors. (It was [mentioned](https://community.homey.app/t/new-philips-hue-outdoor-motion-sensor-not-showing-up-in-homey/57583/8) at several posts in the forum too) That update might affect what it shows. (In the beginning they could not pair at all) Search for [“hue motion outdoor” and sort on “latest”](https://community.homey.app/search?q=Hue%20motion%20outdoor%20order%3Alatest) If I rember well there was also some kind of fix by interviewing the sensor via the [developers](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/zigbee) page ---

Thank you FKey. I have contacted Athom and they have replied that it is a known issue they hope to fix in the next release of the Hue App. At this moment, I am able to use the motion sensor and I will figure out a way to find the temperature using another temperature sensor I have in my garden, so no harm done. Thank you all for your support. This is very much appreciated. Patrick ---

I have the exact same problem, and my other Hue sensor (that one is the indoor version) works fine. Also the Hue sync box is irresponsive 100% of the time on Homey. ---

Same thing here. Indoor works fine. Outdoor only registers movement. Whilst in the Apple HomeKit temp, movement and illuminance is shown? It is irritating because now I cannot create a flow which sets the brightness of outside lights according the lux values. Hope for a solution in naar future. ---

Hi all, It seems to be solved now, the Hue Outdoor sensors are reporting temperature, motion and luminance. It has most probably been fixed by the Athom development team. Patrick
