Contact sensor magnet status switched around

[praemon]

Hi all. So I’ve been using this integration without issue for a while now (thanks to all the contributors!). I’ve since updated to 2.2.1 and noticed the magnet status has switched around on all my contact sensors (DS-PDMCS-EG2-WE(B)). ie. Closed doors show the magnet as “off” while open doors show as “on”. This has resulted in all linked automations failing.

Before I try uninstall and reinstall everything, is there anyway to reset the statuses so they get corrected? Or is this now the “correct” status for the magnet open/close status?

Thanks!

So currently the magnet sensor was completely broken because it was for certain systems not respecting the value at all.

It is based on PRESENCE so it is might not good. And might should be based on type SAFETY.
But in all cases even SAFETY type says "off" = safe. And I think that is correct.

With PRESENCE - "On means home, Off means away." Which for this case does not mean much sense.

The logic even previously was even now it is magnet_open_status directly returned from Hikvision.
So open magnet = true. Closed = false.

I might will change the "type" to SAFETY. But the value will be according the documentation.

• "ON" = open
• "OFF" = closed

Fixed type to match the documentation and released v2.2.2

Hi, is it normal that my magnetic contact only show a status (online) sensor now? See picture:

With version 2.1.6 I had an extra sensor that got disabled with the 2.2.1 and 2.2.2. See picture of latest version before deleting the configuration and reloading:

I am using the old ax panel (not the pro).
