KS200M Motion/Light Sensor API access for Automation Systems
KS200M Motion/Light Sensor API access for Automation Systems
API access to the Light and Motion sensors, & the ability to enable and disable the motion trigger light-on feature.
I am not alone with this request. WE would like to propose API access to the MOTION and LIGHT sensors so that systems like Home Assistant can utilize these extra sensors for our triggers. Also, an API call that enables and mutes the hardware motion sensor which triggers the light to turn on or off, when motion is detected. (Example: still provide motion sensor data, but do not trigger the light when motion is detected, for when the feature is enabled)
I have read forum after forum of people looking for these features, but nobody has this ability. You have the perfect combination of a switch, motion sensor, and light sensor built into an inexpensive switch. And if all it takes is a firmware update to expose these sensors locally, you could create the most perfect switch ever!
With Home Assistant, we want to see data from these extra sensors to help trigger routines. Your switches would sell like hotcakes! I mean make a dimmer switch with all these same sensors, (even throw in temperature and humidity), and you would be unstoppable!
But for now, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, update the firmware to expose these extra sensors, thanks! :)

API Access should ALWAYS be provided. Full Stop. Closing any Tech just tells the community buying the Tech you don't like us. Don't do that.
I have a house with 30 switches. Was going to outfit the entire house with these.
Not anymore.
