Zooz ZSE29 - Automation with HA

Hello everyone,
My fist post here and i am a newbie when it comes to HA, just started. Please forgive my stupid questions . I am very excited to be part of this community .

I am running HA on a docker hosted on Ubuntu VM. I got a Aeotec USB controller and my first Z-wave device is a Zooz ZSE 29 motion sensor.
I was able to pair it with Z-wave controller and add it to HA. When i go to HA > Configuration > Z-Wave management i see it and its showing Node Complete & i can see multiple entities for it. It does show status “sleeping” and i am not sure if that is normal .
I tried to create a test automation: when motion is detected to turn the lights on outside. I tried manually and using HA GUI by going to devices > selecting Motion Sensor > and below was section for Automation & Do something when … Zooz ZSE29 Outdoor Motion Sensor Sensor Turned on.

here is automation using gui:

- id: '1572198965302'
  alias: Motion
  description: ''
  trigger:
  - device_id: ae5f4495bc264849afc0ca3e3e9632a8
    domain: binary_sensor
    entity_id: binary_sensor.zooz_zse29_outdoor_motion_sensor_sensor
    platform: device
    type: turned_on
  condition: []
  action:
  - device_id: b59974be66d540838d17170d4a30af31
    domain: light
    entity_id: light.hue_color_lamp_2
    type: turn_on

here is what i did manually:

- id: '1572205913130'
  alias: Test for Motion
  description: ''
  trigger:
  - device_id: ae5f4495bc264849afc0ca3e3e9632a8
    domain: binary_sensor
    entity_id: binary_sensor.zooz_zse29_outdoor_motion_sensor_sensor
    platform: device
    type: turned_on
  condition: []
  action:
  - data:
      entity_id: switch.outside_lights
    service: switch.turn_on

When i walk by, i see sensor blinks red but nothing happens. When trigger Automation manually, the lights turn on that means my automation is working.

Any pointers how to get this resolved? i spend many hours on it. How can i tell that Motion Sensor is sending a trigger to HA?
