PureLife Cloud v3.2.0

April 15, 2025  by  Felix Kerber  and  Florian Vogt

Version 3.2.0 is available. Support for Vayyar firmware v0.42 and NOVA-C firmware v2025.2.8, bug fixes.

Support for new sensor firmware#

With this release, the PureLife Cloud is fully compatible with Vayyar firmware v0.42. As soon as the manufacturer officially releases it, our customers' sensors will promptly receive an update to the improved firmware.

NOVA-C firmware v2025.2.8 is also now supported. Official manufacturer approval has been granted, and sensors connected to the PureLife Cloud will automatically receive an update.

Newly introduced parameters can be changed via the frontend as usual.

Live view shows posture#

Icons are now displayed in the live view as an indicator of the posture of the people in the room.

Rate limiting to protect and improve system stability#

A rate limiting feature has been introduced to help protect our software from excessive, unwanted requests. This measure was implemented to increase the stability and security of our cloud and ensure that all users can equally benefit from a high-performance and reliable platform.

Providing API documentation#

With this release, we also provide the first version of the API documentation. It lays the foundation for interacting with the PureLife Cloud and defines which requests can be made, how they are formulated, and what responses the API returns.

This can be found in the Cloud chapter in the Integration section.

Documentation update#

Since the release of version 3.0, numerous extensions and adjustments have been made to the documentation and new information about the NOVA-C sensor has been added.

Fixes#

• Fix: Dragging and dropping regions in room editing renders the sketch unusable.
• Fix: Default values ​​for sensor height do not always match the mounting type.
• Fix: NOVA-C – Movement calendar week always starts on Sunday.
• Fix: Vayyar – Door and bed regions are not selectable.
• Fix: NOVA-C – Vital data indicator remains displayed after switching between sensors.
• Fix: NOVA-C – Initial vital data history is incorrect.
• Fix: NOVA-C – Event action normal becomes exit.
• Fix: NOVA-C – Orientation indicator is incorrect when sensor is offline.
• Fix: Various translations are missing.
• Fix: Links to documentation do not work correctly.
• Fix: Webhooks cannot sometimes be deleted.
• Fix: Live updating of the sensor name in the header does not work.
• Fix: NOVA-C – Feedback is forwarded to Vayyar under certain circumstances.
• Fix: Users are logged out if the mobile app push token is invalid.
• Fix: Vayyar – The first register event is not saved for newly registered users.
• Fix: The region type is not automatically changed to "General" when changing from ceiling installation to wall installation and the region is a door or bed region.

Vayyari firmware-version 0.42#

The new Vayyar firmware includes minor improvements and fixes the reset bug.

Fix: Reset without Wi-Fi does not work#

With this version, the sensor can be reset again, even if the sensor cannot establish a Wi-Fi connection or a connection to the cloud.

Mitigator extension#

The Falling Mitigator's fall detection can now be customized using a new tracker profile. This can reduce false alarms by up to 30%.

Improved bed-leaving algorithm#

The bed-leaving algorithm has been improved, which can result in 20% fewer false alarms.

Logging via MQTT#

Starting with this version, logging is also handled via the MQTT interface. This means logs are updated live and do not require a sensor restart.

Within the PureLife Cloud, the management of sensor logs remains unchanged.

Other changes#

• During configuration, the LED parameter has been enhanced to allow the LED to only light up in the event of errors.
• The dry contact can now be triggered when a door exit event occurs.
• It is now possible to set backup NTP servers, which can be used if the primary NTP server is unavailable.

NOVA-C Firmware v2025.2.8#

The new NOVA-C sensor firmware v2025.2.8 is now supported by the PureLife Cloud, and the newly introduced parameters can be changed via the frontend.

Changes to the API#

• String enums are now consistently written in kebab case notation.
• Parameters now better distinguish between revision and version.
• Debug information parsing has been improved.
• The supported postures for presence events have been further expanded.
• The supported event types for enter-exit events have been further expanded.
• For presence events, the posture suspected_fall becomes fall-supected.
• For presence events, the posture fall-confirmation becomes fall-confirmed.
• For presence events, the value areaIndex becomes regionIndex and is only sent if a region is affected.

Separate event for sitting on the floor#

The tracker_target event with the sitting action is now a separate sitting_floor event. The action is detected, followed after a few seconds by confirmed if the detection is confirmed.

Detection of sitting up in bed#

sitting_bed is a new event type that indicates that a person has sat down. The event is triggered as soon as the person sits up in bed. The first event has the status suspected followed after a few seconds by confirmed if the detection is confirmed.

General changes#

• Reduces false alarms when falling or sitting on the floor.
• Reduces the likelihood of phantom detection when multiple people leave the bed at the same time.
• Stabilizes respiration and heart rate detection.
• Wi-Fi connection can be established without a password.
• Bluetooth is disabled by default after provisioning.

For our self-hosted customers#

Extension of the maintenance page#

The maintenance page in the admin area has been revised and now shows the status of the NOVA-C server and the MQTT broker used.

Fixes in Version 3.2.1#

• Fix: NOVA-C – Configuration cannot be processed if firmware version v2025.2.8 is installed and an MQTT hook is stored.

Fixes in Version 3.2.2#

• Fix: Password validation is incorrect
• Fix: The maximum length is not displayed during Telegram ID validation
