I have this wired Matter Zigbee Gateway : [https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006233423263.html?spm=a2g0o.order\_list.order\_list\_main.134.531a1802enAL3H](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006233423263.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.134.531a1802enAL3H).  
To this gateway I connected this Luminance Motion sensor: [https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006156805435.html?spm=a2g0o.order\_list.order\_list\_main.23.531a1802enAL3H](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006156805435.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.23.531a1802enAL3H).  
In Smart Life App this look like this:

This wired Matter gateway i have connected to iHost firmware 2.4.3.  
It look like this:

My question for you is:  
**What do I need to do to see and manage the Luminance Motion sensor connected to the wired Matter gateway in iHost?**

I was connected Luminance sensor directly to iHost but I could not change any settings on sensor, special Light Sense Interval time, which is by default set to 60 minutes. In Smart Life App this interval time it could be set as man wish.  
That is why I was tray with wired matter zigbee gateway.  
My goal is to set Luminance time interval in Smart Life App and use Luminance value in iHost scenes.

Hi Steni,

Unfortunately, ihost currently does not support feature of Light Sense Interval.  
So it’s unlikely to use Luminance value of this PIR sensor for scene setting in ihost.

If I connect this PIR sensor directly to iHost, I can use Luminance value in iHost scenes. Problem is that Luminance value refresh if there is movement or after movement (default value is set to 10 seconds). If there is no movement Luminance value refresh every 60 minutes (this is default settings, in Smart Life App it could be changed, minimum is 1 minute). Problem is that if I set this value on 1 minute in Smart Life app and later connect sensor to iHost, the value is reseted to default 60 minutes.

 ![iHost scene with Luminance value](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/7/79daea37ef1cbdd5125dea88ed3eec2bb9bd1aa5.jpeg)

Now I am looking for solution, how to change refresh Luminance time when sensor is conected with iHost and there is no movement.

Hi Steni,

I will record this and forward it to our product team to see if the refresh frequency ability can be supported in future versions.
