Known Issues

Sticky Parents

Almost all Xiaomi end-devices stick to their parent after pairing. The parent is the device which repeats the signal, it can be a router or the coordinator.

Once a parent is cut from power or otherwise lost, the end-device won’t automatically search for a new parent and appears to be offline.

→ Best practice for pairing is therefore to pair the device at the place where it’s gonna be installed to force it to select a good parent. It’s also advisable to power off all routers which aren’t powered all the time, so that they aren’t considered as parent when pairing.

Difficult pairing

To pair the sensor it needs to be reset first, by pressing the pin-hole button for 10 seconds.

Then after starting sensor search, press the button again until the LED blinks. Finally continuously press the button every 2 seconds until joining is confirmed.
