Hi has anyone a homeyscript to set alarmstatus to false with curl or whatever. since I want to integrate the sensors to homey directly and not over the hue bridge. hope someone can do that for the community, or a script already exists? problem: if the sensors are connected directly to homey, than the sensors getting offline in state motion detected hours/days ago. quick fix restart homey every 2 hours. this is kind of a bullshit fix since over a year. would like to set a counter, if the counter reaches 0 trigger script to set alarm status to false. hope someone can help and post his script or his experience? regards adem ---

Homeyscript does not have enough permissions to change other app’s values, so you would have to find another workaround. ---

Try to raise the min interval to about 10s, like @mapulu proposed here. [https://github.com/sebbebebbe/com.philips.hue.zigbee/issues/148](https://github.com/sebbebebbe/com.philips.hue.zigbee/issues/148) ---

This was my idea since I changed it it works much better on Homey. May not work for all better but can’t do harm to try. ---

@mapulu You don’t feel like having a look if it’s possible to turn that annoying red LED off btw? Hehe. Like I suggested here. [https://github.com/sebbebebbe/com.philips.hue.zigbee/issues/151](https://github.com/sebbebebbe/com.philips.hue.zigbee/issues/151) Obviously someone solved it for zigbee2mqtt by sending a response message to the sensor. ---

thx for the prompt replies do I have to install a specific commit? and how to install this 😕 regarding homeyscript and permissions, create a token on Philips hue bridge, curl it to ifttt or directly to sensor. even not a good workaround but would work I guess?!? ---

No, you can change that under the advanced settings for the device. ---

fixed my issues like here > [@Homey Zigbee - limit of 20 battery powered devices](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-zigbee-limit-of-20-battery-powered-devices/14232/21): > > i use Philips hue bridge for all Philips motion sensors, dresden elektronik strips. for the rest of motion sensors, innr lamps and hue lamps, I use homey. each room has now. min. 3 sensors. first time, that this works how it should slight_smile maybe there is a better working solution? but it works for me slight_smile I’m working with count downs start and adjust flow:
