At some point in 2024 I bought an Aqara FP2 human presence sensor to try and automate the lights in my main open-plan living space. I have been running the installation for nearly a year, now have plans for the future and want to take this opportunity to do a quick write-up on how I have things configured, and how they have been working.
The room
Firstly, a little introduction to the space that I’m playing with…
It’s a kitchen, dinning, living space, with a main single entrance door, as well as large opening bifold doors to the back (both highlighted with red lines). The main flow of people in and out is indicated by the orange arrow on the right, which comes through the main single entrance door.
