You’ll want to ensure you install the custom driver for the ZSE70 Outdoor Motion Sensor in order for the device to be properly recognized and to provide access to the advanced settings.
All About Advanced Settings
The terminology for advanced settings varies depending on your Z-Wave hub. For instance, Hubitat lists them under the “Preferences” tab. Despite these differences in naming, the purpose remains the same: configuring consistent behavior for your device. We provide the full list of settings available for each device in our Knowledge Base.
Each advanced setting consists of four key parts:
-
Label: If your device is properly integrated with your hub, this will display as the setting's name. Hubs like SmartThings show only the label and description.
-
Parameter Number & Description: Most hubs, such as Hubitat and Home Assistant, list the parameter number along with the label and description.
-
Values: These are the selectable options for each setting. Some are simple (e.g., Enable/Disable), while others use numerical values.
-
Size: This is required in some systems when manually changing advanced settings (e.g., Home Assistant) or in hubs that do not provide direct access to settings.
If you find there are settings you are unable to access, or if you would like to use the community driver, check out the instructions below!

You should now see all of the advanced settings in your device view in the HE online interface. Remember to manually wake the device up for the settings to update right away. Otherwise, they will be updated the next time the sensor wakes up a few hours later.
If you prefer not to use the custom driver, you can try out this Z-Wave Universal Device Scanner to access any parameters that may not be available yet in the custom driver.
