Neo CoolCam Motion Sensor v3

Installation on the Vera Plus/Edge:

We are also going to install this sensor on the Vera. You can start adding by logging in and going to the "devices". Then click on "add device" and search for the sensor. I see the sensor in the list and click on it. After some steps, the controller will go into learning mode. You now need to detach the back of the sensor and pull the tab away from the battery. To start adding I press the button above the battery 3x in quick succession.

The LED will flash briefly 5 times to indicate that the addition was successful. I see a motion sensor, lux meter and light meter at the "devices". You have to do the configuration yourself (see further on in this article).

Installation screens:

Configuration:

Operation:

In case of movement, the sensor will send a status to the controller and the LED of the sensor will light up red. We also get a light measurement and temperature measurement. You can determine how often it comes in during the configuration.

Example scene:

We create as a scene: if there is movement, and the lux value is lower than 5, then the lamp may be switched on.
