Hello fellow Shelly-enthousiasts,
I recently purchased a Shelly BLU Motion sensor to capture motion in my house and send it to an existing MQTT server.
Since the sensor only operates with Bluetooth, I bought the BLU Gateway along with it.
I followed the setup instructions:
- BLU Gateway is connected to my WiFi and the Shelly Smart Control App
- BLU Motion is also connected to Shelly Smart Control App
- I don't get confirmation on how the BLU Motion is connected, but I'm assuming it's through the gateway (Bluetooth on my phone is not on)
- I can see motion detection, light level etc for the Motion sensor in the Smart Control App
- The gateway has a connection with my MQTT server and is logging status messages
I was expecting to see messages appear from the BLU Motion on my MQTT server as well, but this is not the case.
What needs to happen for the BLU Motion updates to be relayed over MQTT? Do I need a script for that?
I was expecting this to work out-of-the-box but unfortunately it's not the case.
Thomas
