I have a ElkM1 security system. I have the ElkM1 HA integration installed. I can create automations triggered by motion events detected by the individual zones managed by the Elk. I am wanting to create a group of Elk motion sensors to trigger actions when any of the grouped motion zone sensors detect motion. I created a group helper and entered all motion zone sensors. The automation I created is not triggering when any of the grouped motion sensors are violated. When I check the defined group entity, its state shows “unknown”. I observed that the Elk motion sensors do not have a “device_class: motion” attribute. Other stand alone motion sensors I have show this attribute. Could this be keeping the group entity from reflecting the motion event? Is there a way to modify an entity definition to add this attribute ie. “device_class: motion”? Thanks in advance for your advice.
