How to get a table of all motion sensors' device ID (Fibaro and Non-Fibaro)

[chaicka 195]

Hi,

 

I have been using the 1st two lines below to get a list/table of Fibaro (e.g. FGMS001v1) and non-Fibaro motion sensors (e.g. ZW100). Recently, I have added a newer Fibaro Motion Sensor (FGMS001v2 - Zwave Plus) and that will result in having a 3rd line below.

• Is there an easier way to pull a list of all motion sensors in a HC2?
• Can the 'baseType' be use in the 'fibaro:getDevicesId' LUA API?

 

@Fibaro, why is it that motion sensors from different manufacturers are having so many different 'type' or 'baseType'? Is it not possible to unify them as a common 'baseType' so it makes it easier to create scenes or scripts that need to lookup or poll all devices of the same type?

Some uniformity is always nice

With the different types of Motion Sensors, getting the Device IDs require three different LUA command as shown below.

Next, how to merge all three together into a single table?

 

Below is how to merge two into a single table. But with a third variant, how to merge into a single table?

Slightly off topic...but it be really nice if Fibaro could update their online library of LUA functions when they are released.

The only information available on fibaro:getDevicesId() is in the firmware release notes in these forums.
