Motion detection about homebridge-mqtt HOT 3 CLOSED

@sergejey It should work.

How did you add the accessory? this way?

topic: homebridge/to/add
payload: {"name":"MotionSensor1","service_name":"Motion 1","service":"MotionSensor"}

btw. you don't need the service by homebridge/to/set:

{"name":"MotionSensor1","service_name":"Motion 1","characteristic":"MotionDetected","value":true}

@cflurin , it works but it works strange for some reason -- it does not update the status on the phone in real-time (like it does for the switch for example). So I can set MotionDetected status but it takes a while when I got it updated on the phone. Did you see anything like that? Thanks anyway!

Strange! It updates immediately on my iPhone.

Are you using a public mqtt-broker?
iOS device?
homebridge hardware, Raspberry PI?

My Layout:

• Homebridge on a RPi3
• mosquitto broker on a RPi2 in the same LAN
• EVE and Home app on an iPhone 6.
