I just added one of these to my home for the specific intention of closing my living room blind if it gets too bright to help protect rugs and furniture from UV damage. Trying to figure out if I should set my event to trigger off of the UV sensor or the lumens sensor and what value. Any suggestions?

UV is 1-11, I think the danger zone is 3 and up.

For lumens, you'll have to watch your specific space and see what values it gives and figure out what is the right amount for your specific space. It's just a personal preference.

I'm running 1.3.3301.
I want to get the motion detector to trigger an event but no luck with the trigger running.
The Log shows the sensor is working (Updated Status of X Sensor (Z-Wave Devices) from 0 to 100 and back to 0).
The Event config is Trigger-> Device Changes Status->Device = the sensor's name X->Property Changes-> motion detected.
After configuring and saving, the GUI shows the "Event Triggers" =X. Nothing about property changes/motion detected.
For the device itself, the config has Type=Other; Humidity Sensor, Luminosity Sensor, Motion Sensor, Temperature Sensor, UV Sensor and Vibration Sensor check boxes marked.

Is this a bug, and if not, what should the config be?

Hey Tommy, can you double check that the MultiSensor has "Motion Sensor" checked on the Edit Device screen? I think that is the reason that trigger wasn't working.
